As families carve pumpkins and prepare holiday meals, businesses should be carving out something equally important: time to review their receivables. November is the perfect month to take a step back, evaluate delinquent accounts, and put a plan in place before the end-of-year rush makes it nearly impossible to catch up.
Why November Matters
By the time December rolls around, the holidays take center stage. Consumers are busy traveling, shopping, and preparing for family gatherings. Businesses are finalizing budgets, closing the books, and trying to wrap up the year strong. In that chaos, collections often get pushed aside—and accounts that might have been recoverable in November become nearly impossible to collect in January.
Key Steps for Carving Out Success
- Run a detailed aging report. Identify which accounts are past due and organize them by how long they’ve been outstanding.
- Prioritize the oldest debts. Debts past 90 days are far harder to recover, so act quickly on those.
- Delegate early. Instead of waiting until year-end, hand off accounts to Aldous now so we can take action while people are still responsive.
