If you’re not ready to give up yet and still hung up on trying to make the collection calls yourself, Entrepreneur Magazine suggests “a few tips that will help you get your collection calls done quickly and efficiently.

1.    Schedule a regular time or day each week to make collection calls.
2.    Have all account information on hand.
3.    Leave messages, but do not reveal that the call is about an unpaid bill.
4.    Get the debtor to acknowledge the debt by asking if there was a question about the charge.
5.    Offer to take a credit card over the phone for payment.
6.    Ask when they will pay -- and wait for an answer.
7.    Let them know you are documenting whatever commitment they make about a payment on their account.”
