Pricing That’s Easy to Say Yes To

Fixed-Fee Recovery — $15
Client keeps 100% of what we recover.

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—earlier you assign, better recovery results are delivered, because we start with our most amicable strategies first. Let your employees do core work for which they were hired, rather than making them do collections which they obviously do not enjoy. Bilingual collections are available (Spanish collectors on board).

Money saver tip: Most of our clients are able to get our fixed fee service for free, by declaring it as a Business Expense in taxes, after consulting their CPA.

Why “Smooth Wake” Collections Beat “Big Splash” Collections

A lot of businesses try to collect by making noise:
more calls, more pressure, more frustration.

That’s the big splash.

But Pewaukee businesses know how lakes work—if you want control, you create a smooth wake, not chaos. The smoother the approach, the faster people cooperate.

You recover more by working with the debtor rather than arguing against them because:

  • People pay what feels possible

  • They prioritize what feels organized

  • They respond to what feels respectful but firm

So we keep it diplomatic—firm enough to secure payment, soft enough to protect your 5-star online reputation.

That’s the Velvet Hammer:
clear expectations + calm tone + consistent follow-through.

We also do a litigation scrub to protect you from collecting debt from riskier people. Some accounts look collectible on paper but turn messy fast. We help you avoid wasting time on the wrong file in the wrong way. That’s one reason our recovery rates stay higher than industry average.

⚠️ Red Flag Box: 3 Payment Mistakes We See in Pewaukee (All the Time)

1) “They’re a good customer… we’ll wait.”
Good customers still get behind. Waiting too long is how recoverable balances turn into write-offs.

2) Your staff becomes the collections department by accident.
Office managers weren’t hired to chase money. It drains morale and steals time from real revenue work.

3) You’re chasing the wrong phone number.
People change numbers, move apartments, or stop checking old email. We use USPS address checks and skip tracing to keep the account moving.

Recent Recovery Results

Medical balance resolved (Pewaukee area)

A clinic had patient balances stuck in the “I’ll handle it soon” zone. Staff didn’t want to sound harsh, so the accounts kept aging quietly.
What happened next:

  1. We verified the correct address and contact details, then sent a short resolution message with clear options

  2. We followed with calm phone outreach (and text only when permitted), focused on solving—not blaming

  3. Patient chose a short payment plan and completed early once the process felt simple
    Outcome: balance recovered, no reputation blowback, and the clinic stopped losing hours to uncomfortable follow-ups.

Business invoice recovered (nearby: Waukesha / Brookfield corridor)

A B2B service provider completed work tied to a timeline, then the customer stalled behind “approval delays.”
What happened next:

  1. We confirmed the true decision-maker, cleaned up documentation, and ran a risk check

  2. We offered two clean choices: pay-now closeout or a two-part plan with firm dates

  3. We documented by email and secured commitment by phone—steady pressure, respectful tone
    Outcome: first payment landed quickly, second cleared on schedule, relationship preserved.

A Note From the Account Reconciliation Team

We don’t collect by cornering people. We collect by reducing confusion.
When the debtor understands the balance, sees two realistic ways to close it, and believes the timeline is real, they pay far more often. We keep it calm, firm, and professional until the account is finished.

Local Awareness That Actually Matters in Pewaukee

Pewaukee is more connected than it looks on a map. A lot of billing behavior here is shaped by commuting, healthcare access, and small-business relationships.

We tailor our outreach around real local anchors like:

  • Pewaukee Lake and the small-business community around it

  • Waukesha County Technical College (WCTC) in Pewaukee and the student/workforce pipeline

  • the daily flow of work and deliveries off I-94

  • quick access via Capitol Drive / US-16 into the broader metro

  • nearby healthcare traffic tied to ProHealth Care services in the region

  • the business overlap with Waukesha and Brookfield

  • the “everyone knows everyone” reputation reality that comes with Lake Country living

Translation: we stay respectful, because reputation is currency here.

Practical Rules We Follow (Not Legal Advice)

Collections must be firm, fair, and documented. We follow:

  • Federal FDCPA expectations (no harassment, no deception, no improper threats)

  • Federal FCRA rules if you choose credit reporting and it’s permitted

  • Wisconsin consumer protections that shape how collection behavior and disputes must be handled

We also use safeguards that improve accuracy and reduce risk:

  • USPS address checks

  • skip tracing when contact info is stale

  • bankruptcy checks before pushing the wrong file

  • optional credit reporting if you choose it and it’s allowed

And to prevent rogue collector behavior and review-bomb risk: calls are recorded and randomly reviewed.
