If they do have accounts… want them to do the talking. Do NOT ask yes or no questions? (Go to Phase #1)

If they have a method in place:


Phase#2 - In House Phase#3 - Attorney/Lawyer Phase#4 - Collection Agency

(Pay close attention:)

PHASE #1: If they do have accounts?


You want to find out: Are they B2B or B2C? How MUCH ($)? How OLD? How MANY (#)? We want COM!!!
PAIN QUESTIONS. QUALIFY HARD “Focus on the PAIN and CLOSE EASY.”
• How long have you had that problem?
• What have you tried to do about collecting that account? And did it work?
• Can you be more specific? What happened?
• How much do you think that has cost you?
• Have you given up trying to deal with that account?
• Would you have done the service knowing you were not going to get PAID?

We suggest you listen to client as these questions are meant to find the pain/the problem…
Once getting to this point you have 2 options: Either turn the call over to a Closer or finish the call and direct
yourself to your Closers.

At this point client should be asking information about us and how we work... and it’s SIMPLE.
Your Response to client how does this work?

MHG coordinates an international network of credit-trained private investigators to conduct in-depth asset and liability
investigations on your debtor companies.

1. First of when you place the accounts with us, we initiate our collections procedures. Our investigator will contact your debtors'
bank officers, key vendors and suppliers to get a full financial profile on the business.
2. Once that in play, we will contact the Secretary of State to verify the corporate status of the debtor as well as all tax-affiliated
state offices.
3. The investigator will also check with the Tax Assessor's office to search for all real property and assets.

All this on contingency meaning we only get paid when we collect and if we do NOT collect then there isn’t any bill.

If they ask about our fee? YOU SHOULD ALREADY KNOW THIS.

Right after this then it’s a done deal “Send me your email or what do I need to do to get started?”

Finish the call!

the call and dial the next #!

Your Response to their in house system!


We work as an extension of your in house system; when it fails to collect on any giving client then you either decide to keep
reaching out to the debtor or turn it over to an agency like us.

percentage and if we don’t collect then there is NO CHARGE!

( THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS – IS TO FIND ”THE NEED” – DO THEY HAVE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE? Is this a constant issue your

Your Response to an Attorney!


We understand you work with an attorney and its every one 1st choice.

Please do understand that an attorney didn’t go to Law School to become a bill collector. That’s our JOB and our Specialty in
collecting any monies owed to you…

Now, we are not here to replace your current method but understand that our way of proceeding towards delinquent accounts is
a lot more suitable than what an attorney does when they attempt to collect any debt.

(BASED ON THE QUESTIONS ABOVE WILL BE DEPENDING ON HOW YOU EITHER TURN A NOT INTERESTED TO F*** MY ATTORNEY
AND HOW DOES THIS WORK.) ( THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS – IS TO FIND ”THE NEED” – DO THEY HAVE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE? Is
this a constant issue your having? IF IT IS… THEN THIS IS HOW I CAN HELP?)

Your Response to an Attorney!


Example#1:
We understand you ALREADY work with an agency and maybe it’s working out just fine. But, we are not here to replace your
current method on the contrary we want to work alongside your current method… which means we want to get an opportunity
on those accounts that your agency isn’t successfully collecting on. We have earned several businesses by going after 2nd
placements accounts.

***Client with collections agency are tough to gain; but there are not always happy. BECAUSE NOBODY COLLECT 100%!!! If they

YOU WANT TO FOCUS ON THE PAIN – CREATE THE PROBLEM AND OFFER A SOLUTION TO IT… IS THAT SIMPLE!

DUMMY UP. Always try to get them to talk (2 ears, 1 mouth). If they ask questions or have concerns, SAY:
• That’s very interesting situation, can you please tell me a bit more about that?
• It’s very interesting you say that, do you mind if I ask you why you said that.
• Not interested. I’m sorry to hear that. Between you and me, why are you not interested?
CLOSE. Please help me understand. ASK:
• Are these accounts a priority to you right now, or is this something that you would like to have collected later on?
• The longer you wait the less money we recover, so what’s keeping you from getting started?
• If you have these accounts collected right now, would it make a positive impact in your business?
DECISION. Who, what, how, when? ASK:
• What do you need to see from me in order to make a decision?
• When do you want to get started?
