The work

Cash in the door faster, with aging that never surprises you

Receivables slip quietly. Nobody decides to stop chasing the 60-day column — it just loses to whatever is more urgent that week, and three months later the aging report is a document people avoid opening. A dedicated AR specialist works it as a daily routine instead of a periodic rescue, which is the only thing that reliably moves days sales outstanding.

What this seat covers

  • Customer invoicing
  • Cash application
  • Collections support
  • Aging review

QBO · XERO · STRIPE

Collections tone is a judgment call, so it stays yours: you set the escalation ladder and the point at which a partner steps in. See the full role scope on our services page.

How an AR placement works

Four steps you care about, out of the seven we run.

  1. 01

    Discovery call

    Thirty minutes on your billing cycle, your aging profile, and how far into collections you want the seat to go.

  2. 02

    We recruit and screen

    Sourcing, English screening — which matters more here than in any other seat — plus AR assessments, software tests and reference checks.

  3. 03

    You interview the shortlist

    Meet 2–3 finalists. Because this seat talks to your clients' customers, we expect you to test communication hard in that interview.

  4. 04

    Training, onboarding, and then every day after

    Training on your invoicing calendar and escalation ladder, security onboarding, then ongoing HR, payroll and performance management from us.

The full seven-step process, including our six screening gates, is on the how it works page.

One flat monthly fee covers all of it

AR specialist seats are scoped and quoted on the discovery call. It is always one flat monthly fee with everything below included — never a percentage of what gets collected, which is a structure that quietly puts your client relationships second.

  • Recruiting & screening
  • HR & payroll
  • Equipment & workstation
  • Training
  • Performance management
  • Quality assurance
  • Account management
  • Replacement guarantee

Questions firms ask about this seat

Will an AR specialist speak to our clients' customers directly?

Only to the extent you want. Many firms have the seat send statements and routine follow-ups under the firm's own templates and email domain, and escalate anything sensitive to a named person at your firm. English fluency — written and spoken — is the first of our six screening gates, and for this seat we weight the interview toward it. You will hear that for yourself before you approve anyone.

Can they handle collections for several clients at once?

Yes. The seat is full-time and exclusive to your firm, so you allocate it across your client book. What matters more than client count is how many distinct escalation policies the seat has to hold in its head — we work through that with you on the discovery call and during onboarding.

Do they need access to our clients' bank feeds to apply cash?

They need whatever access cash application requires in your systems, and no more. Role-based, least-privilege access is a default of ours, not an upgrade — each professional reaches only the systems the role requires, on a managed workstation with no local data storage. The full control set is on our security page.

Can this seat also do our invoicing, or only collections?

Both, and most firms use it for both — customer invoicing, cash application, collections support and aging review are one continuous cycle, and splitting them across people is exactly how receivables start slipping. If you only want part of it, say so on the discovery call and we will scope the role definition to match.
