DealThreads sets up automatic payment follow-up in your brand voice — polite reminders that start the day an invoice is due and keep going until it's paid. You never write another "just following up" email. The money comes in anyway.
Send your AR aging export — one click in QuickBooks or Xero. We send back your number: what's stuck at 30, 60, and 90 days, and what's collectable. Takes you two minutes. Costs nothing.
We found $650,000 in unpaid invoices at one creative agency. Half collected inside 30 days. No collections agency.
Your clients aren't deadbeats. Most of them pay — eventually. The invoice goes out, the work is already delivered, and then the follow-up lands on whoever feels guilty about it that week. Usually you.
So you write the "circling back" emails yourself, between client work. Most never get written. And every one you do send makes you the bad guy with a client you want to keep.
Chasing it is nobody's actual job. So it sits.
That's the whole problem — not your clients, not your billing software, not your bookkeeper. A six-figure pile of work you already did, waiting on a follow-up email nobody wants to send.
DealThreads makes the follow-up automatic and keeps it in your voice. The day an invoice is due, the first reminder goes out — polite, on-brand, signed the way you sign. No response, it follows up again. Firmer at 14 days. Flagged for a phone call if it truly stalls.
It doesn't get busy. It doesn't feel awkward. It doesn't stop until the invoice is paid.
You stay the good guy. The system does the nagging.
One click in QuickBooks, Xero, or FreshBooks. Two minutes of your time. That's the entire ask.
We send you the map: what's stuck at 30, 60, and 90 days, which invoices are realistically collectable, and what consistent follow-up would recover. If the number is small, you've lost nothing and you know exactly where you stand.
That's the business model, stated plainly. Setup is $2,000, one-time. We wire the follow-up to your billing tool, match it to your voice, and it's live in about a week — with a weekly "who still owes you" digest.
Creative Alternatives is a creative agency. When we mapped their receivables, the number came to $650,000 in unpaid invoices. Nobody there was slacking — the owner was writing payment reminders himself, between pitches. So most never got written.
We set up automated follow-up in their brand voice. Half the money came back inside 30 days. The rest arrived within 90. No collections agency, no burned client relationships.
The invoices were never the problem. The follow-up was.
After the audit, if we take the job, it comes with this: the system recovers at least three times what you paid for it within 30 days, or you get a full refund and keep the setup.
We can offer that because we only take the job when your audit shows the money is actually there. The audit isn't a sales script — it's how we decide whether to make you the offer at all.

No contracts. The setup is yours either way.
Your AR aging export — a standard report, one click in QuickBooks, Xero, or FreshBooks. That's everything for the audit. If we build the system, we'll connect to your billing tool with your permission, and you approve the reminder copy before anything sends.
The reminders are polite, spaced out, and written in your voice — the same way your best office manager would follow up, just without fail. Clients respond to consistency. What annoys them is a surprise dunning letter after six silent months. That's the thing this prevents.
Then the audit costs you two minutes and confirms it. Most owners who said that to us were right about "fine" and wrong about "slowly" — the average invoice that does get paid arrives weeks late, and that gap is your cash flow.
Because it's how we find clients. If your number is big, we'll offer to fix it. If it isn't, you keep the map and we part friends. Stated plainly so you don't have to wonder.
