Get this.
Let’s say that you have followed your dream and did all the possible things to create something that brings you constant cash flow. Let’s imagine that you’ve opened a truck business in the United States. So, get this, you did all the necessary things, paid your taxes, got your truck, opened your company, and hop on some work. Time flies fast. You work hard, extra hours just to get in time. You see how the fuel prices are rising, and you don’t get your payment on time. Frustration, lack of money flow, anxiety. All in one results in a bad mood and lack of motivation to do something and to do it right. Do you need more to know? Maintaining positive cash flow can be challenging in a sector with ongoing costs and slow-paying clients. For your trucking company to remain competitive, having an efficient accounts receivable management collection procedure is essential. Let us tell you how it can be done faster than you have thought.
​
Step 1
- Before hauling for a new client, choose the amount of credit you're willing to extend and establish a deadline for payment.
- Create a system that will keep track of when an invoice is issued and notify you automatically when it is past due.
- Establish a system, along with email and phone script templates, for following up on past-due payments as soon as possible.
- Make paying you simply. Ensure that your invoice identifies the amount owed, any relevant taxes, the terms and choices for making payments, as well as the address to which make payments.
- Consider including incentives for early payment on your invoice.

Step 2
- Send in your transportation invoices right now. As soon as the work is finished, send an invoice.
- Verify that the invoice has been received and is waiting to be paid.

Step 3
- Do not delay in following up. Call politely to find out when a payment will be made as soon as it is past due.
- Keep your emotions at bay. Give the responsibility of following up with late payers to someone who can if you find it difficult to remain calm.
- Review your credit conditions and make any necessary adjustments for clients who routinely pay late.
