Has anyone else dealt with customers who were happy with a cleaning job but then delayed payment for weeks or months?
I can understand occasional payment issues, especially with larger commercial jobs, but repeated late invoices can make it difficult for a small service business to manage its expenses. I’m wondering what steps other cleaning businesses take before deciding that an unpaid invoice needs more formal attention.
For example, do you usually send several reminders, offer a payment plan, or stop providing services until the balance is settled? At what point would you consider using a Debt Collection Agency rather than continuing to contact the customer yourself.
