Tips for Collection Letters

Wondering how you can make your collection letter as effective as possible?

When you’re drafting your demand letter, keep in mind the following general concepts:

• Keep it short. No more than one page.
• Use simple words, short sentences, and frequent paragraphs. Your letter should be easy to read with no room for misinterpretation or misunderstanding. Be firm, convey urgency, and use action words.
• Customize the letter. Even if your letter is computer-generated, identify a specific recipient and reflect the specific invoices, dates, and amounts that are past due.
• Demand payment by a specific date. Don’t give the debtor any wiggle room.
