Commercial Debt Recovery & Collection – You’re a Business, Not a Charity or a Banker
You aren’t in business to donate a product or service to a customer who has no intention of paying for it. You’re in business to make a profit. And your company’s profitability is in jeopardy every time you carry a customer’s unpaid balance from month to month to month without a payment. As any commercial debt collection manager will tell you, that’s a recipe for financial suicide. Bottom line? You’re not a charity or a banker. You’re a business. And the nature of a healthy business is to make money. Yet, commercial debt recovery can be a time-consuming process and time is a commodity that can be in short supply with your busy schedule and already hectic workload. If you sometimes wonder whether the stress and overwork are worth it or you don’t quite feel comfortable demanding payment from delinquent customers give us a call. We’re experts at using every tactic from Nice to Nuclear to collect your money. Just give us the word and we’ll get out there and get results while you continue doing what you do best: handling your vital day-to-day business responsibilities.

“Dollars recovered is in excess of 80%”. Although we pride ourselves on our internal collection abilities, we have found it very helpful to utilize the services of a third party recovery firm to assist in the collection of our accounts receivable.We have been working exclusively with Stevens & Ricci since 2001 because of their expertise in quickly and professionally recovering our accounts. We have found that their staff is adept at dealing with any type of business or legal issue that might arise in the recovery of our accounts and should an account have to be litigated, the process is seamless. Most importantly, Stevens & Ricci’s collection rate of dollars placed versus dollars recovered is in excess of 80%. This bottom line pleases both our Board of Directors and shareholders.
More ‘bang for the buck’, At first I was skeptical of Stevens & Ricci’s conversion from collection agency to attorney group and brokerage. We have been a client for over three years and I’ve always said “If it’s not broke don’t fix it.” We placed a large customer recently which was assigned to a Stevens & Ricci attorney. The account was resolved because in today’s debtor savvy culture, a seasoned collection attorney will command and get a higher level of respect and attention than an agency collector. Further, the attorney is in a better position to overcome objections from the debtor which can delay or prevent collecting. The cost is the same but more dollars are recovered. We’re getting more “bang for the buck” with Stevens & Ricci.
“I truly am impressed”. I am so impressed with your company, I just wanted to send you a note to thank you for all of your continued help.I have been in Accounts Receivable for over 5 years and have been dealing with many different collection agency’s in various states and never had any luck with any of them. They seem to promise you everything just to get the account.I have never dealt with a more professional, effective, and efficient company such as yours. You are there to answer any questions, no matter how big or small. I also appreciate the reports you send updating my account on a regular basis. I truly am impressed how quickly you got our money back from several clients that would not return my calls, etc. I told my superiors I will never deal with any other agency and have recommended many of my clients to you and will continue to do so. I truly appreciate everything.
