You had a deal to perform a service or deliver a product to a client fora mutually agreed upon price. Up to now they have not held up there bargain. So far the excuses and outright lies you have been given range from the check is in the mail to they are away on a once in a lifetime vacation and it slipped their mind. Naturally after you hear the latter you think to yourself it must be nice not to pay your bills and go on a vacation. Later that afternoon while taking your son to practice you run into your client at Wawa. At this point you are angry and insulted and this is affecting your business and perhaps even your home life.

If you have accounts like this your best bet is to get them to a reputable collections firm as soon as possible. Before it becomes personal or time consuming. Make sure when you start the relationship and agree to bill the customer that you have everything in writing and have them sign it. Set an expectation of when payment is due and what you will do to enforce payment, such as late fees and turning them over to your collections firm. Let them know that it's nothing personal but you need to be paid. If they walk out the door because of this, it will let you know they were planning on slow paying you.
The sooner you get account to collections the better chances you have of getting paid. We have advised some of our clients to offer a discount for paying in full upfront. Another idea is to word the contract that if the account goes to collections the client is liable for that fee. If we can be of service to you please let us know.
