It               can               often               seem               like               an               impossible               task               when               trying               to               collect               on               your               accounts               receivables.

These               days,               with               cash               and               credit               tight,               your               90-150               day               outstanding               credit               columns               might               be               expanding               at               an               alarming               rate.

Here               are               five               key               accounts               receivable               collection               tips               that               might               help               you               get               your               outstanding               debts               back               in               line.

Develop               your               contacts               -               By               developing               a               report               with               your               accounts,               especially               larger               or               higher               frequency               accounts               can               payoff               big               time               when               it               comes               to               collecting               debts               that               are               owed               to               you.

Spend               a               couple               minutes               getting               to               know               a               company's               accounts               payable               person               or               any               other               contacts               that               might               be               involved               in               the               billing               or               payments               review               process.

Knowing               something               personal               about               them,               their               family               or               hobbies               can               be               a               great               way               to               break               the               ice               when               you               call               to               inquire               about               payments,               and               keep               relations               smooth               during               rocky               times.
               Keep               a               call               list               -               When               you're               working               with               multiple               accounts,               it's               easy               to               forget               when               you               made               your               last               collection               call.

You               should               have               a               file               with               a               call               sheet               for               each               account               you               have               open,               as               well               as               retaining               those               call               sheets               for               accounts               that               are               inactive               or               currently               do               not               owe,               for               payment               history               purposes.

This               will               keep               confusion               to               a               minimum,               and               help               you               avoid               embarrassing               calls               to               accounts               you               may               already               have               called               or               did               not               call               soon               enough.
               Stay               consistent               -               Calling               for               five               day's               in               a               row,               and               then               waiting               a               month,               and               then               calling               another               five               days               in               a               row,               is               probably               only               going               to               anger               your               account               and               make               you               look               unprofessional.

Make               sure               that               you               touch               bases               with               an               account               early               after               you               send               a               bill,               first               off               to               ensure               they               receive               the               bill               and               it               made               it               to               the               right               department               or               person,               and               secondly               to               see               if               there               are               any               questions               or               concerns               regarding               the               bill.

Continue               to               call               on               a               regular,               but               not               annoyingly               frequent               basis               to               remind               the               account               that               they               still               owe               money.
               Be               firm               but               not               pushy               -               You               can               be               understanding,               fair,               even               kind               at               times,               but               don't               be               afraid               to               use               the               means               at               your               disposal               to               get               your               money.

Telling               an               account               that               services               will               be               stopped               if               they               don't               pay,               or               that               they               will               be               turned               over               to               collections               (after               the               proper               amount               of               time               and               effort               on               your               part               of               course)               isn't               being               mean,               it's               just               being               fair.

They               used               your               services               or               bought               your               company's               product               and               now               it               is               time               for               them               to               pay               what               is               due.
               Ask               for               tracking               numbers               -               If               you               have               worked               in               accounts               receivable               or               owned               a               small               business               in               which               you               have               to               deal               with               collecting               on               your               accounts,               I               bet               you've               heard               this               one               before,               "The               check               is               in               the               mail"               or               "I               sent               it               FedEx".
