Better Billing and Faster Payments

Waiting for payment and chasing customers is a hassle. In most cases, the issue can be the way you are approaching the customer.  Some business owners reject this notion and continue to lose money and clients. The sooner you look inward the faster you can stop chasing money continually. This is such a common phenomenon and business owners who listen to this advice are the most successful.   

Every customer makes a conscience decision about how, when and if they will pay you. Your process has such a great influence and determines their decision and your income. Will they pay you or buy the newest gadget or pair of shoes? These are real thoughts in the consumer’s mind.  

There are effective ways to generate the immediate dollar using long term methods that make payment priority. Problem is many businesses offer too much leverage and it diminishes their rate of payment and percentage of income. Remember this! You influence your customer’s choice to pay you now or later and sometime they don’t pay at all. Most companies are so afraid of losing the customer they are sloppy or timid about their approach to payment. Do things right and you will make the money, keep the customer happy and have a greater degree of success with less effort. For example, some doctors offices bill for a co-pay.  Wait, the customer is right there in front of you needed help. Ask for the money NOW. “You have a $20 dollar co-pay”. Customers will pay it on the spot 90% of the time. That means lees administrative costs, faster money and time saved.  This is something doctors never do for the other 10%. Hand them a bill right there with a due date, today’s date of service and self addressed return envelope. This would take care of more than half of the 10% who did not pay. These methods along with many more are examples of great pro-active options that many do not utilize.

Billing And Payments Billing Consultants.

Getting paid is the second half of the business that must come first!

Since 1989 we have provided in-house billing and collections strategies for small businesses as well as fortune 500 companies. There is a serious need for real solutions to customers who constantly pay late and make you wait for your money.

There are a variety of reasons why some clients string you along for payment and these people need to be trained to pay. How many clients owe you money right now? And what about those you have to chase every month? Chasing people for money can be exhausting and it’s a hassle that needs to be corrected immediately. You can create a habit of payment in all of your customers and get paid faster.  

The way you present your operation from the first meeting and throughout the business relationship-which includes billing and collecting payments-greatly determines your rate of success. We implement proven billing and collection methods based on studies that overcome payment problems and help businesses experience greater cash flow.

While there is no “one size fits all” approach to this process, there are many fundamental laws that remain unchanged. For example, the longer an account remains unpaid the less chance you have of getting paid. Percentage of collectability decreases 30 days past due and becomes even more un-collectable at 60 and 90 days and so on. There are also laws that cause customers to pay. The techniques you use to pursue your money and communicate that payment is “due now” are vital. This is the 21^st century and you need 21^st century methods to get paid. Furthermore, you don’t have to worry about losing clients when your approach is respectable but persistent. Good customers will respect great billing and difficult customers cannot escape the urge to pay.

Too many business owners wait far too long to do get professional help and miss out on a great opportunity to really solve their challenges. Many business owners cannot seem to get out of their own way and become stifled and complacent. Don’t keep guessing why people don’t pay, look internally and find the reason. This dilemma is so common that thousands and tens of millions of dollars are lost each year. 

As mentioned in “Top 10 Billing Secrets”, over 25 billion dollars gets referred to collection agencies every year and more gets written off as bad debt. How much of that money was yours? Why do so many business owners refuse to endeavor on upgrading? It’s business as usual.   

If you’re one of the few who is going to make the decision to get help and improve, you’re on the right track. You want greater success. You want changes with real results and tangible progress and that’s exactly what CJM Billing Solutions does.

Payments and Customers Who Don’t Pay

Past Due Customers

Some people work hard at not paying their bill. I’ve seen customers spend $200 trying to get out of paying $100. They just cannot let go of that money, the money owed to you! It’s time for you to change that and understand what motivates them to pay their bill.

People act and react differently when it comes to paying. Consumer habits have been studied for years. Studies have shown that people are stimulated and respond to a variety of tactics and strategies. In the same way marketing techniques are used to cause consumers to buy, you must use compelling techniques that cause customers to pay. Everyone is conditioned in ways that we don’t even realize, at the supermarket, on the cover of magazines, by what we watch on television and even by other people. You must condition customers with a habit of payment and your ability to keep the pressure where clients respond with a positive outcome. It’s important to create a sense of urgency in people.  Customers can exploit the weakness in your billing system which could cause a two-fold effect. You could lose the customer and the revenue when both of these actions could have been avoided. The idea of, “If they don’t pay, I will stop my service or product,” is self-defeating. It’s better to know how to keep the customer paying by billing them properly and building a relationship. As stated prior, collection starts from the beginning of your business relationship. Your first meeting, phone call or contract sets the tone. If you are laid back or sloppy regarding payment from the start, you can almost guarantee the receipt of payment will be laid back and sloppy. Have a policy in place and use specific dates and specific amounts to be paid on time. You must be consistent and professional. If money is owed, don’t take it personal; pursue payment quickly, politely and professionally.
