How it works

Four steps, run on every invoice.

  1. 01

    Connect

    Links to Xero, MYOB or QuickBooks and pulls in every open invoice. Read-only until you switch that off.

  2. 02

    Assess

    Scores each invoice on how that customer has paid before, how big it is and what they last said.

  3. 03

    Pursue

    Email, then SMS, then WhatsApp. Your wording, getting firmer without getting rude. Replies are read and acted on.

  4. 04

    Settle

    Matches the money to the right invoice, closes it and moves the forecast. Anything unsure waits for you.

The full method, step by step→

The problem

You can sell well and still run out of money.

The invoices go out on time. What comes back is a long, quiet negotiation about when. Thirty days becomes fifty, and your slowest customer knows almost to the week how long they can leave it.

Chasing isn't hard. It's just constant, a bit awkward, and usually somebody's fifth job. So the first reminder goes out late, the second one apologises, and the third never happens. The reply that explains why they haven't paid sits unread for a fortnight.

The point of it

A finance function that never forgets, never gets embarrassed, and never lets an invoice go quiet.

Capabilities

Six things, in order.

01 Tiered follow-up Email first. If they stop opening email, it tries their phone. Some customers only ever answer on WhatsApp and it learns which ones. You set the schedule and the wording once, then it just runs. 02 Reply comprehension It reads the reply properly. "Paying Friday" pushes the next message to Monday. A question about the PO gets an answer. "We only got half of this" is not a payment problem at all, so it stops and finds a human. 03 Cash application Money turns up with a reference like TRF88201 and no invoice number anywhere. Chasing Co. works out which invoice it belongs to, splits one payment across four bills, and flags a short-pay with the credit note that probably caused it. 04 Dispute handover Once an invoice is contested it is off the chase list for good. Whoever owns that account gets the thread, the docket and a draft reply, and nothing else happens until they say so. 05 Credit exposure Who owes you what, today. How they have paid you over six years. And the two or three customers whose balance would genuinely hurt. It tells you when someone starts paying slower, while it is still a small number. 06 Cash forecast Most forecasts take your average collection days and multiply. This one goes invoice by invoice and gives you a range instead of a number that pretends to be exact. It updates the moment a reply lands.

Why this exists

Built for the fifth job nobody wants.

I watched a business I know well nearly go under while it was profitable. It had a full order book and customers who liked it. What it did not have was the money it had already earned, because that was sitting in eleven other companies' bank accounts and nobody at our end had the time to ask for it twice.

The bookkeeper had four other jobs. The reminders went out when she got to them, which was usually late, and they were always a little apologetic, because asking for money you are owed somehow feels rude. By the time anyone noticed that a customer had queried an invoice back in March, it was June.
