Professional services & agencies

Get paid for the work. Skip the awkward client calls.

Agencies, consultancies and professional firms lose weeks to vendor onboarding, missing purchase orders and “one more approval”. We handle the follow-up in your name so your partners and account managers can stay focused on the client relationship.

The problem

The people who win the work shouldn’t chase the money.

When the account manager or founder is also the collector, two things happen: follow-up slips, and every payment conversation puts the relationship at risk.

Clients rarely refuse to pay a good agency or consultant. Invoices stall because procurement wasn’t set up, a PO expired, a milestone wasn’t formally signed off or the invoice went to the wrong inbox. Those are process problems, and process problems can be fixed.

Typical reasons invoices stall

  • Client vendor onboarding not completed
  • PO missing, expired or exhausted
  • Milestone or deliverable not formally accepted
  • Invoice format doesn’t match the statement of work
  • Client contact changed or left the company
  • Retainer invoices paid irregularly
What we handle

A finance team your clients will find easy to pay.

Vendor onboarding

Supplier forms, W-9s, bank-detail confirmations and procurement portals completed early, so the first invoice isn’t the one that waits.

PO & SOW alignment

We track purchase orders and remaining balances, and flag before an invoice exceeds a PO or falls outside the statement of work.

Milestone sign-offs

We confirm acceptance of milestones and deliverables with the right contact before the invoice is due.

Relationship-safe follow-up

A tone that fits a long-term client relationship, with escalation only along the path you approve.

Retainer discipline

Recurring invoices followed up on schedule, so retainers arrive as reliably as you deliver.

Reporting by client

Aging and DSO by client and project, plus a 13-week cash forecast for staffing and hiring decisions.
