What Can You Learn from a Call with Your Debtor?

Have questions for your debtors?

They might answer them without you asking. Listen carefully and you’ll uncover pearls of information from debtors including information you can use later to collect the debt, such as after you’ve obtained a judgement and are looking for assets to attach.

You might hear:

• Whether the debtor can borrow money to pay you: “I’ve got an application in to the Small Business Administration for a loan to pay you and other creditors.”
• Information that explains why you haven’t been paid – and whether you’re likely to be paid: “I fell off a roof and haven’t been able to work for six months, and all my employees left me to work for others.”

Although you want to pick up all the information you can that’s relevant to collection, a conversation with a talkative debtor can quickly spin out of control. When that happens, try to bring the conversation back under control.
