subject line.
Once they have received
package, email or call them. Ask them what they are doing with
invoices. Ask them questions such as:
Do they have to be approved by someone else? If they have to be approved, who has to approve them and when will they give them to that person? Get that person’s direct number if possible. Find out if that person signs
checks. Are there any discrepancies with
invoices? When will
check be cut? When can you call back for
check number?
Once all
past due balances are cleared up, you need to think about future invoices. Do you want to extend credit again or do you want to have pre-payment or payment at
time of
order. Whatever you decide put it in writing. If you can both sign
agreement, that is even better. Remember, having a credit policy in place tells people you mean business.
