This time of year, you can expect to see more late paying customers than normal. Here are our 5 top tips, from experts with more than 25 years of debt collection experience, on how to minimise the risk of late payments: ➡️ Check that your customer has received the invoice - A common reason for late payment is a customer claiming that they have not received your invoice. By remaining diligent and following up on sent invoices in plenty of time, you leave the option open to resend the correspondence BEFORE the Christmas and New Year’s break. ➡️ Offer incentives to customers who pay in advance - Christmas is the perfect time of year to show appreciation for customers who pay on time! You could include an option on end of year invoices for prompt payers to receive a small discount. ➡️ Chase up overdue invoices immediately - Obviously it goes without saying that as soon as invoices fall due you should chase them up. You are entitled to this payment. Customers will often have a lot to wrap-up as they approach year end, and a small nudge can be enough to remind them of what their priorities should be. ➡️ Target customers with a history of late payments - Do not be afraid to be robust, especially with customers who are consistently making late payments. Companies will often have a handful of customers who are responsible for the majority of late payments, so targeting these people early is a good exercise in helping to protect cashflow. ➡️ Instruct a third party debt collection agency - With a team of in-house experts on-the ground networks, Guildways debt collection experience is second to none. To give us the best chance of collecting the debt, we research the history of the debt, and any contractual issues that may be compromising payment.
