Client Testimonials

"It is wonderful working with a collections partner that understands the value of collecting funds while maintaining a healthy relationship with our customers. Optio truly understands the importance of serving as a business partner, not just a vendor.- Mike R, Language Software

“I am writing to let you know how pleased we have been with the service provided by Optio Solutions. Because of your service, I no longer have to take the time to call customers who are slow paying and listen to their excuses. Your written demands get their attention in a way we never could. As a result of your services, some of our traditionally slow-paying customers have started paying on time and we have collected on some debts that we probably would not have collected.”- Alicia R, Roofing Contractor

“Optio Solutions offered a new, effective and economical way of recovering past due accounts. For us, it was a combination of friendly reminder calls - which they cleverly refer to as Talking Statements - that was most successful… What we particularly liked about this approach is the unbelievable positive response that we received. Since our staff no longer has to make these phone calls, we are able to focus our efforts on other projects, allowing my office to operate for effectively and efficiently. Best of all, within one month of signing up with Optio Solutions, we have collected a significant number of our past due accounts faster than we could have imagined.”-Vincent D, Private University
