Stop Using a “Kodak Era” Strategy for a Modern Rochester Economy
Rochester has evolved. The “World’s Image Centre” isn’t just about film anymore—it’s a powerhouse of optics, photonics, and world-class healthcare. The city moved forward, but most collection agencies didn’t.
Too many Rochester businesses are still relying on old-school agencies that use aggressive, bridge-burning tactics from the 1990s. In a tight-knit community like ours—where your reputation travels faster than news on the Inner Loop—you cannot afford to treat your clients like numbers.
If you are a medical practice affiliated with URMC, a tech firm in Downtown’s Innovation Zone, or a service provider in Pittsford, you need a partner that understands the delicate balance between recovery and reputation.
The New Standard for Monroe County Collections
We are not a traditional “collection agency.” We are a modern A/R partner.
Old agencies charge you 40-50% on every account and treat your patients and clients like adversaries. We flipped the model. We prioritize early, fixed-fee resolution that keeps your costs low and your relationships safe.
How We Unblocked Cash Flow for a Local Optical Supplier
A mid-sized optical manufacturer in Rochester was struggling with slow-paying B2B accounts. They were afraid to send them to collections because they didn’t want to jeopardize future contracts with these buyers. We implemented our Step 2 (Third-Party Demand) service. Instead of taking a percentage, we sent professional, firm demand letters for a flat $15 fee. The result? They recovered $65,000 in overdue invoices in less than 45 days, retained every client, and saved over $20,000 in agency fees compared to the old contingency model.
3 Reasons Rochester Businesses Are Switching
1. We Understand the “Knowledge Economy”
Rochester isn’t just manufacturing anymore. It’s service, tech, and care. These industries require diplomacy, not threats. Our approach is designed to preserve the relationship while securing the payment.
2. We Navigate New York’s Strict Laws
New York has some of the toughest consumer protection laws in the country.
-
3-Year Statute of Limitations: Under the Consumer Credit Fairness Act, the time to sue for consumer debt is now just 3 years (down from 6). If your current agency sits on an account too long, it becomes legally uncollectible. We move fast to beat this clock.
-
Compliance Safety: We strictly adhere to New York State rules to keep your legal risk low while recovering more.
3. We Don’t Hold Your Money Hostage
Why pay 50% when a $15 letter could do the job? Our transparent 4-step model puts you in control of the cost.
Our 4-Step Process: Built for Control
-
Step 1: First-Party Outreach ($15): We act as your internal billing team. Courteous, branded reminders that get paid without alerting the patient/client to “collections.”
-
Step 2: Third-Party Demands ($15): A formal escalation on our letterhead. This professional nudge resolves the vast majority of accounts.
-
Step 3: Contingency (40%): For the toughest cases, our expert negotiators take over. No recovery, no fee.
-
Step 4: Legal Forwarding (50%): If litigation is the only route, we manage the entire process through our vetted legal network.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you handle medical collections for Rochester practices?
Yes. From dental offices in Greece to specialty clinics in Brighton, we specialize in patient-friendly recovery. We know how to handle high-deductible balances without triggering negative reviews.
What is the “Inner Loop” metaphor for cash flow?
Just as Rochester filled in the Inner Loop to reconnect neighborhoods and remove barriers, we remove the artificial barriers in your billing process. We stop your invoices from circling endlessly and create a direct path to payment.
Can you collect from debtors who moved out of New York?
Absolutely. We are licensed and capable of collecting in all 50 states. If your debtor moved from Henrietta to Florida, we can still pursue the debt legally and effectively.
How does the 3-year Statute of Limitations affect me?
It means speed is critical. You can no longer wait years to address bad debt. In New York, if you wait longer than 3 years, you lose your right to sue. Our system is designed to identify and escalate these accounts before they expire.
