Vary your methods of collection, using mail, email, faxes and telephone calls.
Don’t let your accounts exceed 90 days overdue. The longer the account is overdue the less chance you have of collection.
Be persistent, and don’t feel embarrassed to request payment. Remember, the account is overdue.
Co-operate quickly if there is any query or your customer requires copies of invoices.
Develop your collection techniques to be effective while maintaining and building goodwill.
Co-operate as far as possible with your debtors.
When you open a new account, it is a good idea to formally notify your new client in writing. Serve notice of your terms and conditions of trade. Explain your settlement terms in clear, direct language and indicate how you will expect the account to be treated.
