Collection Company Helps Haiti
Debt collection company American Profit Recovery has started a fund raising effort in order to assist trying to provide relief to the Haiti earthquake victims. American Profit Recovery has chosen the Saint Rock Haiti Foundation which is a charity that provides medical care for the people of Haiti.
There are three different ways in which the collection agency will come up with money. One will be the donation of five percent of the proceeds from their biggest trade show. The money will come from all sales at the show in addition to any that come in until the end of February.
Employees are able to contribute by donating money to have the opportunity to dress casually on every Monday in February. Food purchased at their three locations will also go directly to Saint Rock Haiti Foundation.
American Profit Recovery picked Saint Rock Haiti Foundation after one of their team members brought the charity to its attention. And by picking this organization, it will have the opportunity to apply to the Grand Lodge of Masons over in Massachusetts to match their donation, doubling fund raising efforts.
American Profit Recovery is a collection agency with offices in Massachusetts, North Carolina, and Michigan. It was founded in 2004. APR focuses on the collection of third party debt in professional industries such as banking, trades, medical and dental, and lawn care.
APR has a large interest in good business practices and diplomacy with debtors. They work to keep the relationship between client and consumer intact; their goal is to keep the business relationship going.
Recent studies suggest that collection companies that train their collectors in empathy are the latest trend and the most successful. If someone is being contacted by numerous collection agencies, they are more likely to work with the collector that has shown compassion. More debt collection agencies could take a lesson from APR and start giving back to the community.
