Put Everything in Writing

Debt Collections Michigan, Michigan Debt Collections
How thoroughly do you document transactions with your clients?

An old expression, always applicable to billing practices, states, “It isn’t done if it isn’t in writing.” Everything in the billing system must be in writing. This is usually referred to as a paper trail. As a general rule, whoever has the best paper trail wins.

Never include an item on your statement of account that can’t be fully documented. Unexplained items on statements are difficult to impossible to enforce and make your billing system appear disorganized. Your disorganization or lack of documentation will become a huge problem should a customer dispute its balance. As time passes, memories fade and you’ll have to rely on your paper trail.
