The Job Of The Independent Billing Service

Many businesses and professionals are fully dedicated to the services they provide or the products they sell. At some smaller companies, there is much less interest in, and sometimes inadequate attention paid to, billing customers and collecting the money—tasks that keep the whole enterprise afloat. Even when a company is fully prepared to send bills and collect revenues with well-trained staff and state-of-the-art systems, it might not make economic sense to do so.

The job of the independent billing service is existed to devote full attention to accounts receivable as needed, which eliminates the need for a company to hire and pay salary and benefits for a full-time employee. Your basic pitch is this: Your services as an outside billing agency will cost less than doing the work in house, and/or your agency will do a better job of managing receivables (and working with a collection agency when necessary). If you can’t make that claim, you have no appeal to the client. You can also appeal to small businesses that have suffered from turnover in their billing departments; you should be able to promise that services will be standardized and available every business day of the week.

In other side, the job of the independent billing service also works to aggregate accounts and take over billing for products and services, to collect payments and post them to proper accounts, to monitor accounts receivable and report to client about any problematic customers, and work with collection agencies when appropriate.
