Pricing That Doesn’t Require a Long Meeting
Fixed-Fee Recovery: $15 per account — you keep 100% of what we collect.
Contingency Recovery: 40% — no recovery, no fee.
When appropriate and permitted, we may also use email or text to speed up responses. Involvement of a collection agency significantly improves recovery rate — and the earlier you assign, the better your recovery results because overdue balances don’t sit still. They either get paid… or they slip into permanent “later.”
Let your employees do the work they were hired for instead of turning them into accidental debt collectors. Collections conversations are uncomfortable, time-consuming, and inconsistent when handled internally.
Bilingual collections: Spanish-speaking collectors are available.
Money saver tip: Many clients can offset our fixed-fee program by treating it as a business expense (after confirming with their CPA), which can make the cost feel close to free.
Ogden’s Quiet Problem: Debtors Stay Nearby, but They Stay Busy
Ogden is connected. That’s a strength — until you’re trying to reach someone who owes you money.
A debtor might still be driving past you on Washington Boulevard, grabbing lunch near Historic 25th Street, or heading toward The Junction like nothing happened. They may commute on I-15, cut across I-84, or be tied to rotating work schedules near Hill Air Force Base.
And if your customers include students, you’ll feel it around Weber State University — where accounts can get delayed because people move apartments, change numbers, or switch payers without warning.
Add in the healthcare flow around McKay-Dee Hospital, and the visitor traffic headed to Snowbasin and Powder Mountain, and you get the perfect storm:
The invoice is legitimate. The service was real. The payment just keeps “almost happening.”
Red Flag Box: 3 Ogden Collection Mistakes That Cost You the Most
🚩 Mistake #1: Accepting “the check is going out” without a date
If you don’t have a date and a method, you don’t have progress.
🚩 Mistake #2: Letting frustration write the next message
One sharp email can trigger complaints, screenshots, or review blowback.
🚩 Mistake #3: Chasing the wrong contact person
If the decision-maker isn’t engaged, you’ll collect nothing but excuses.
Why You Recover More by Working With the Debtor (Not Fighting Them)
Most businesses assume pressure is the answer. It isn’t.
People pay the creditor who feels:
-
easiest to resolve with
-
most organized
-
most likely to escalate correctly (without losing control)
That’s why we use cooperative mediation. We don’t “argue someone into paying.” We guide them into finishing.
Here’s how the Velvet Hammer works in real life:
-
Respectful opening that invites response instead of triggering defense
-
Two clear options (pay-in-full or a structured plan)
-
Real deadlines with calm enforcement
-
Consistent follow-up that never turns emotional
We also run a litigation scrub to protect you from chasing accounts that look riskier than they’re worth. Some debts are collectible. Some are landmines. We help you avoid the landmines.
Note From the Account Reconciliation Team
We don’t “hunt people down.” We close loops cleanly.
Our tone stays steady, our process stays documented, and our job is to make paying you feel simpler than avoiding you.
That’s how you win without collateral damage.

Practical Rules Summary (Not Legal Advice)
Collections are most effective when they’re calm, accurate, and documented.
Key rules that shape day-to-day recovery work:
-
FDCPA: prevents harassment, deception, and unfair pressure
-
Regulation F: communication boundaries and consistent processes
-
FCRA: accuracy and dispute handling if credit reporting is used and permitted
-
TCPA: extra care around calls/texts, especially to mobile numbers
To reduce wasted time, we also use:
-
USPS address checks
-
skip tracing when details go stale
-
bankruptcy screening before pushing the wrong account
If you choose it (and if permitted), credit reporting can be considered for the right accounts.
And for reputation protection: calls are recorded and randomly reviewed to prevent rogue collector behavior and reduce review-bomb risk.
FAQs
How soon should I place an account for collections in Ogden?
When it’s clearly past due and your reminders aren’t creating action. Earlier placement usually means higher recovery and fewer disputes.
Do you handle accounts tied to commuters on I-15 and I-84?
Yes. Ogden’s mobility makes “busy” debtors common. Structured outreach stops them from slipping through the cracks.
Can you text a debtor to speed up payment?
When appropriate and permitted, yes. We use text as a convenience tool — short, respectful, documented — never as pressure.
