A repeatable follow-up sequence that gets invoices paid faster
Set up a lightweight collections workflow — aging buckets, reminder sequence, escalation rules — so overdue invoices stop silently draining your cash flow and time.
Build a late-payments workflow for my small business. Ask me for: invoice aging export, standard terms, late-fee policy, and any sensitive customers. Then: - Segment invoices by aging bucket and amount, - Draft a 4-step reminder sequence (Day 0, Day 7, Day 14, Day 30) with subject lines, - Create a 60-second call script for Day 14+, - Recommend an escalation decision tree (pause work, require deposit, payment plan). Keep tone professional and relationship-preserving.
This byte segments your open invoices by how late they are, then builds a 4-touch
reminder sequence with escalation rules. You get a weekly focus list sorted by
amount × lateness so you chase the money that matters most first.
