The discussion ranges from the structure of specific jobs to the full range of collection and litigation tactics that can be used to collect money from customers. The book also includes dozens of usage tips and relevant references to the author's popular Accounting Best Practices podcast.<br/>The Credit & Collection Guidebook is your practical reference for setting up and managing a cost-effective and low-risk credit and collections department.
