WHAT I DO: I help Brisbane and Queensland businesses to quickly collect overdue money by providing B2B debt collection services. I reduce the number of outstanding debtors, reduce the amount of debt that’s written off, increase cashflow, improve the average days for receiving payment and free up human resources so that clients can concentrate on their core business. HOW I DO IT: I am the owner and debt collector at Carter Collect, and I have over 20 years of experience in B2B debt collection. WHO I WORK WITH: • Small to medium Brisbane and Queensland businesses • Debtors anywhere in Australia • Printing, Hospitality and Construction industries • CFOs, account receivable staff • Business owners, directors and managers WHY IT WORKS: A receivables ledger is often the second largest asset of a business and an aged debt ledger can cripple your business. Cashflow truly is king, so shrewd management of these overdue accounts is critical—but so is management of your company’s reputation. I use firm yet constructive negotiation combined with empathy, experience and quick thinking to generate outstanding results. Most debt collection companies use a shotgun approach of a letter plus a telemarketer call, resulting in low success and a high percentage of write-offs. I work every file from cradle to grave, no matter the dollar amount, to deliver a high percentage of funds collected. WHY I’M DIFFERENT: After serving in the Defence Force and Corrective Services, I started a business doing field-based collections, private investigations and repossessions. I helped grow the company to over 100 employees and 550 contractors with offices across Australia. Although I’m still a shareholder in that company, I have now turned my attention to boutique debt collection services for companies in order to bring a personalized approach to debt recovery.
