One of the most frustrating parts about running a business of any size is when customers don’t pay on time or, pay you at all. You spent untold amounts of time securing these customers, building your reputation with them and then servicing them for long periods of time. Then one day, they fall behind and you’re not getting paid.

Maybe it was an oversight and maybe it’s more than just that. Sometimes your customers decide they didn’t like the service for whatever reason, and they stop paying.

As a collection agency that works with both small and large business, we encounter this question quite a bit. We often hear that a business needs to place a customer into the collection process but they really don’t want to lose that customer. It is very common for those two factors to be discussed in the same conversation.
