Business-to-business collections cover debts between two companies, not private consumers. The goal is to recover amounts owed through a measured, legally compliant approach.

A formal notice requesting payment by a specific date as the first step in the collections process.
Money owed to your business by another company for goods or services provided.
A negotiated agreement to resolve the debt, which may include a payment plan or discounted amount.
