SIMPLE TIPS TO IMPROVE YOUR BOTTOM LINE FROM OPEN ACCOUNTS. INCLUDES OFFER TO OBTAIN VERBIAGE THAT WILL ALLOW YOU TO COLLECT INTEREST AND FEES ON RECEIVABLES.

Denver -- February 28, 2003 - Central Credit Corporation is offering the following tips to our local businesses to help improve their cash flow from open accounts.

1) Carefully review your internal collection processes with your collection agency representative. For example, are you holding on to accounts too long and thereby impacting the effectiveness of your collection agencys efforts?
2) Do your contracts, agreements, or bids contain the appropriate verbiage to allow your collection agency to utilize all legal means available to them on your behalf?
3) Verify what services are included in the rate youve negotiated with your collection agency. Do they include skip tracing and asset searches? Credit bureau reporting or pre-legal services? How often are recovered funds remitted back to you?
4) Be sure you understand the rate youll receive if your customers account proceeds to litigation or is forwarded to another agency.

One survey done by the U.S. Department of Commerce shows that the value of an account depreciates from 5% after 30 days to as much as 70% after 180 days, which is when most businesses turn over their open accounts to a collection agency.

The simple guide above and working with your collection agency on developing sound internal processes will reduce your account aging status and increase cash flow.
