Is there any good dunning method? This is public money.

I. Thank-you letter instead of dunning notice

Generally, this kind of debtor pays more attention to face, and face is more valuable than anything else. Using the old method to urge accounts will cause the other party's disgust and unhappiness, or even resistance, which will often make things worse.

When I found that the old dunning method didn't work for this kind of customers, I sent them a thank-you letter, which was full of words of thanks, listing the goods and payment for goods supplied to the other party according to the contract, delivery date and so on. And ask the other party to remit the above money to an account in the next few days. I'll call you again in a day or two, and it's basically ok.

Second, the dunning notice

After "thanking" the customer, the dunning still doesn't move after many times, so it is necessary to send a special "dunning notice".

The dunning notice shall include the following contents:

Reasons for default

amount in arear

Date of arrears

Collection process

At the same time, in order to strengthen the dunning, the dunning notice should also state that "if the payment cannot be made before the deadline of XX, our legal adviser XXX will deal with it directly and will add a late fee of RMB".

Third, the lawyer letter

Customers whose second scheme doesn't work will gradually enter legal proceedings. Of course, this legal procedure has just begun, and it may not begin in the end. The element of intimidation may be greater than the actual meaning.

Because it is not a formal prosecution, the cost of issuing a lawyer's letter is usually very low, and some law firms issue a lawyer's letter for a nominal fee. Of course, the charging standards and habits in different places may be different, so the charging can also be negotiated, and more consultation is needed.

A lawyer's letter has a basic format, just list the main items.

It should also be noted that there are also law firms in some places (mainly at the street and township levels), and the staff are mostly lawyers without lawyer qualifications, and the fees are low. Asking them to send dunning letters or legal proposals can also achieve the effect of lawyers' letters. Friends who owe less can consider this way.

Four. prosecute

For customers who still owe money after the first three attempts failed, the last method can only be adopted.

Get a lawyer or sue directly.

Enter the judicial process.

Finally, it should be noted that every reminder should leave evidence, for example, foreign customers should keep fax or mail vouchers, and local customers should try their best to deliver them by mail. This is indirect evidence that the amount owed is unknown or controversial. If the other party has no objection to the amount of arrears issued before, it will be regarded as a breach of contract if it exceeds a certain period.

For most customers, the usual intensive dunning method can be effective; For enterprises that are poorly managed, prone to default and on the verge of bankruptcy, it is the best policy to judge accurately, take decisive measures and act quickly, and sacrifice the killer weapon of property preservation. It is the best policy to go first.
