Not every customer is worth the risk. At Advantage Collections, we’ve seen businesses save thousands by identifying red flags early. Here’s how to spot risky customers before they turn into a collections headache:
- Check Payment History: Ask for references or pull credit reports—past behavior predicts future payments.
- Watch for Warning Signs: Frequent excuses, partial payments, or vague communication signal trouble.
- Set Firm Boundaries: Small initial orders or cash-on-delivery terms test reliability without overexposure.
Vetting customers isn’t just smart—it’s survival. If a risky account slips through, we’ve got your back with fast, effective recovery. Ready to tighten your process? Let’s talk.
