Debt type

Unpaid invoices

Outcome

Within eight weeks, Taurus Collections successfully recovered the entire sum of £21,000

The challenge

  • Long-Overdue Invoices: Several invoices, some dating back over six months, remained unpaid despite the client’s efforts to collect.
  • Strained Relationships: The client wanted to recover funds without alienating key business relationships, as their debtors included repeat customers.
  • Cashflow Pressures: The lack of timely payments restricted their ability to hire additional recruiters and take on new client projects.

Our approach

At Taurus Collections, we understand the delicate balance between effective debt recovery and preserving valuable business relationships. We developed a tailored strategy for the recruitment firm:

  • Comprehensive Account Audit: We conducted a detailed review of the outstanding invoices and communication history to identify patterns and prioritise the most critical cases.
  • Clear Communication: Our experienced collections team initiated contact with the debtors, emphasising resolution over conflict. By maintaining professionalism and understanding, we opened productive dialogues with each debtor.
  • Negotiation and Settlement: We diligently negotiated settlements that addressed the concerns of both parties. In one case, we successfully structured a payment plan that allowed a debtor to clear their balance in three installments while maintaining their working relationship with our client.
  • Persistent Follow-Up: Persistence was key. We ensured consistent follow-up on all accounts, leaving no room for delays or miscommunication.
