Southwest Recovery Services has released a new guide for mid-size B2B companies, clarifying past due versus overdue payment distinctions and offering escalation strategies and cash flow management frameworks to address late payment challenges.
-- The newest guide from Southwest Recovery Services (SWRS) has been developed to clarify terms and processes for SMB owners. The resource defines past due payments as unpaid obligations within 1-30 days after the due date, while overdue payments extend beyond 30 days past due.

The scale and severity of late payment problems facing mid-size B2B companies establish an urgent business case for understanding payment distinctions, says the SWRS team. B2B collections differ fundamentally from consumer collections due to higher invoice amounts, longer sales cycles, relationship preservation concerns, and greater cash flow impact, their guide explains.
In response, Southwest Recovery Services specializes managing complex debt collection cases for companies with $10 million to $100 million in revenue, contextualizing why a guide focused on payment stage distinctions provides valuable strategic insight.
The resource empowers mid-size business owners and financial managers to take control of their collections strategy before escalation becomes necessary by answering key operational questions. It explains when past due accounts should transition to overdue status, what communication strategies work best at each stage, and how escalation protocols protect both cash flow and business relationships.
Another topic covered in the guide is the 30-day threshold, which serves as the decision point where companies must shift from courteous payment reminders to formal demand letters and possibly even legal action.
Southwest Recovery Services is available now to directly assist companies in this key phase of collections, offering a contingency-only structure with no upfront costs, retainer fees, or administrative charges. To recover unpaid invoices quickly, Southwest Recovery Services utilizes AI-guided tracking software that monitors payment promises across omnichannel communications including phone, email, text, and mail, while veteran collectors apply human judgment to negotiations.
The guide is available now to mid-size business owners and financial managers, providing concrete examples, decision frameworks, and industry context for optimizing collections strategy.
