hi signs

Go to site, start letting all the managers at the stores know that there sign is going to be removed "next week" due to lack of payment. Trust me they will be on the phone with head office, who will contact the sign co. I've only had to do this once, I had a cheque in 45 minutes

I like that solution, pretty smart thinking. We don't have any problems collecting from the national companies here. Is your company making these national companies fill out credit applications that make them sign and agree to your terms? I had one national account last month shocked that I was having them fill out a credit app. She said in her 10 years doing this, nobody has ever asked for a signed credit app. Our terms that they must have someone with signing authority agree to are net 30, and that the sign is the property of us until paid for. I have only had one account not pay for a simple small install of 10 banners, so after 3 promises i went to the site with a ladder and starting telling all the business owners that their national company hadnt paid so the banners were coming down. Before I got to the third store my cell was ringing saying the cheque would be at the front counter in 20 minutes.
