Make Sure You Get Paid with CollBox
Too many times, an invoice due in 30 days goes delinquent to 45, 60, and sometimes even 90 days. The issue isn't the quality of work performed or even a questionable detail on the invoice; its more the matter of ABC company not wanting to pay the invoice on time.
Past-due debt puts small businesses in danger by stalling cashflow. Each year 82% of the companies forced to close their doors cite cash flow as the main reason. With more robust analytics and the right workflow, a business can collect more of the cash they are owed and improve their chance of long-term success.
So, what do you do when an invoice goes delinquent?
CollBox is an app that provides debt collection at the push of a button and seamlessly integrates with QuickBooks, Xero, Sage, and FreshBooks. By offering two different collection solutions, assist, and collections, any company can use CollBox to assess and monitor their A/R health. CollBox is perfect for those who don’t have time or want to deal with the collections' headaches.
How CollBox Assist works
• 1-90 days, softer touch

How CollBox Collections works

You can enter specific information into the platform about your customers you want to send to collections, like business or individual, industry, how hard or soft you would like the collections to be, and if you are willing to accept less than the total amount due.
Some business categories that have been a great fit are professional service providers, commercial real estate companies, administrators, or insurance recipients as a funding source.
