Cashflow

The call your business avoids making. Yours makes it anyway.

Chasing a customer for money you're owed is awkward, so it gets put off, so it doesn't happen consistently, so cash sits out there longer than it should. Optiphone calls the day an overdue account crosses the threshold you set. Every time, whether or not anyone in the office had the stomach for it that week.

"Calling about invoice 4021, we noticed it's been overdue for six days now. Would you like any support arranging financing options?"

A helpful call, not a debt-collector call.

01 / How it works

One threshold, one tone, applied every single time.

You decide when an account counts as overdue. Optiphone handles everything from that point without needing anyone to remember to make the call.

You set the threshold

Six days overdue, fourteen, whatever fits how you already run credit terms. The agent does not decide when a call is due. You do, once, and it applies every time from then on.

The call goes out on the day it crosses

Not whenever someone in the office finds a spare ten minutes between jobs. The day an account passes your threshold, the call happens. Every account, every time, whether or not anyone had the stomach for it that week.

It opens with the invoice, not a warning

The call names the invoice and the number of days overdue, then asks whether the customer needs a hand rather than demanding a result. That is the whole opening: a reminder and an offer, not a threat.

It offers support before it asks for anything

Would you like any support arranging financing options. That line does the work. A customer who has genuinely fallen on hard times gets an offer to make a plan, not pressure to find money that is not there.

02 / Not a collections agency

Getting paid without losing the customer.

Handing an overdue invoice to a collections agency solves the cashflow problem and usually ends the relationship. This system is built to solve the first without causing the second.

It is not a collections agency, and it does not act like one

Optiphone is not a debt collector. It has no legal recovery powers, it does not threaten, escalate, or refer accounts anywhere, and it never claims otherwise on a call. It is a polite, on-time reminder call built on the same voice technology as the rest of Optiphone, nothing more.

The goal is the payment, not the fight

A collections agency exists to extract money and does not care what happens to the relationship afterwards. This system exists to get your invoice paid while the customer keeps booking with you next season. Those are different jobs, and the tone reflects it.

Why that matters for a repeat customer

Most trade and services businesses run on repeat work. A customer who gets a heavy-handed call over one late invoice does not come back, even after they pay. A customer who gets a fair, helpful call usually does, because nobody made them feel chased.

03 / What comes back to you

Every call ends with an answer, not a guess.

Your office gets the outcome of every call sorted into one of three buckets, plus the full transcript behind it.

Paid on the call, or straight after

Plenty of overdue invoices are simply forgotten rather than disputed. A polite reminder is often the entire fix, and it comes back to your office logged as resolved.

Needs terms

Where a customer wants to talk about a payment plan or financing support, that is captured and flagged for your team to follow up and agree, rather than negotiated or promised by the agent.

Disputing the invoice

Wrong amount, work not finished, already paid. The agent does not argue the point or make a call on who is right. It records exactly what the customer said and sends it back to you to resolve.

Every call, recorded and transcribed

You get the outcome and the full transcript for every account called, so nothing about how the conversation went is a guess. Read it over coffee, not while a customer is still on the line.

Optiphone call log view showing every call with timestamps and caller details

The same call log every other Optiphone system uses. Every account called, timestamped, searchable, with the outcome and the transcript sitting behind it.

04 / Fits what you already run

Built to sit alongside your books, not replace them.

Optiphone doesn't decide who owes you money. Your accounts, your threshold, your records stay exactly where they are.

Optiphone already keeps your Xero contacts in sync both ways, so the customer the agent is calling matches the one in your books. That sync is read only where accounting data is involved: Optiphone never creates, edits, sends or deletes an invoice. You tell us the threshold and hand over the accounts that have crossed it, however you already track them, and the calling happens from there.

“Optiphone has absolutely changed the game for us. Managing calls was an absolute nightmare while being on the tools and often not even having the schedule on anything else. I used to have to run to the car to get it. We don't have emergencies often but getting that call every now and then helps our cashflow so much, I used to miss most of those.”

05 / FAQ

Common questions, straight answers.

No. Optiphone is not a debt collector and has no legal recovery powers. It makes a polite phone call on the day an account crosses the threshold you set, reminds the customer of the overdue invoice, and offers support such as arranging financing options. It never threatens, escalates, or refers an account anywhere.

No, and that is deliberate. The opening line is a reminder and an offer to help, not a demand. The same natural, on-brand voice used across Optiphone is used here, so the call feels like your office following up, not a third party chasing money.

The agent does not argue the amount or decide who is right. It records exactly what the customer said, whether that is a wrong figure, unfinished work, or a payment they believe was already made, and sends it back to your office to resolve.

You set the threshold, for example six days past due, and provide the list of accounts that have crossed it however you already track debtors. The agent does not read your accounting system directly to decide who owes what.

Optiphone already keeps your Xero contacts in sync both ways, so the customer record the agent works from lines up with the one in your books. That sync is read only where accounting data is involved: Optiphone never creates, edits, sends or deletes an invoice in Xero.

Yes. Every script is approved by you before it goes anywhere near a customer, the same as every other Optiphone system. If you want the financing line removed, or a different tone for accounts more than 30 days overdue, that is a change we make, not a setting you have to find yourself.

That is the reason for the tone. A heavy-handed reminder can cost you the repeat business along with the argument. A fair, consistent, helpful call about a genuinely overdue invoice rarely does, and it is one every business is entitled to make.

Overdue account calling is scoped to your call volume and how it needs to fit around your existing systems, so pricing is set on a consultation rather than a fixed plan. Book a consultation and we will work out what it looks like for your business.
