Want to create the invoice you never have to chase?

Join me for a fast-paced 30-minute webinar where I'll share the practical techniques I've learned over 30 years at Siemens and 5 years building GetPaid, helping businesses recover thousands of unpaid invoices.

You'll discover:
✅ How to create invoices that get paid faster
✅ The small details that prevent payment delays
✅ Common mistakes that lead to unnecessary chasing
✅ Simple changes you can implement immediately

Most unpaid invoices don't become overdue because customers don't want to pay—they become overdue because the payment process wasn't set up for success.

I'll also answer your questions during a live Q&A, so bring along the challenges you've always wanted to discuss.

📅 12 August
⏰ 30-minute webinar

⛰️ If you live in Tyrol, you know the pattern of a summer day.

☀️ The morning starts with blue skies and sunshine. The mountains look perfect, and you think:

“This could be the perfect day.”

Running a business often feels exactly the same.

✅ You do a great job.
✅ You deliver your product or service.
✅ You send your invoice.

And you naturally assume your customer will pay.

But just like the weather in the Alps, things can change quickly… 🌦️

By late afternoon, clouds start building, the wind picks up, and you know what is coming:

⛈️ Rain. Thunder. Lightning.

In Tyrol, you don’t argue with the storm, you prepare for it.

🏠 You have shelter.
🛡️ You protect yourself and your belongings.
🌧️ You manage the storm until the skies clear again.

Late payments in business are no different.

💸 Some customers forget.
💸 Some have cash flow challenges.
💸 Some simply don’t prioritise paying you.

The question is not if a storm will come, it is whether you are prepared when it does.

📋 Have a plan.
⚙️ Put processes in place.
📞 Know what you will do when invoices become overdue.

Because just like a Tyrolean summer storm, a payment storm in business is inevitable.

The difference between being caught out and staying in control?

Preparation. ⛰️

🎙️ During my interview with Matthew Gambold, our editor captured one of my strongest beliefs about business.

⚖️ Legal frameworks are important, but they can only go so far. Small businesses also have to navigate trust, relationships, judgement, and ethical decisions every single day.

💡 Laws cannot fix poor business attitudes, misunderstandings, or a lack of moral responsibility.

🤝 That is why integrity, values, and business ethics matter so much. They are the foundation of sustainable businesses and strong relationships.

🎙️ Listen to Matthew Gambold sharing an important reality of running a small business:

💡 Very few business owners are experts in every single area needed to build and manage a successful company.

📊 Finance, marketing, sales, operations, legal matters, technology… the list is endless. The challenge is not knowing everything — it is recognising where you need support, learning continuously, and building the right network around you.

🤝 Successful entrepreneurs know that asking for help and surrounding themselves with the right people is a strength, not a weakness.

You’ve done the work. You’ve sent the invoice. The due date has passed. But you hesitate to chase it because you don’t want to seem pushy.

Now flip the script 🔄

If you were the customer who owed the money, what would you think when no one follows up?

Maybe:

• they’re not serious about getting paid
• they’ve forgotten
• they can afford to wait

From that perspective, your silence sends a message.

It can make your invoice seem less urgent, your terms less important, and your business easier to delay ⏳

That’s the mind game: when you don’t chase payment, your customer may not see politeness — they may see permission.

Credit control isn’t about being aggressive. It’s about protecting the value of your work and showing that payment matters ✅

What do you think your customer learns about you when you stay quiet?

He praises it, opens it, takes a sip…

…and then pours 20% of the bottle down the sink.

You’d be speechless.

Why? Because everyone knows that’s throwing away something valuable.

Yet many businesses do something remarkably similar.

When an invoice becomes overdue and nothing happens for two months, the chances of recovering the money have already fallen to around 80%.

Every week of delay increases the risk that the customer can’t pay, won’t pay, or simply disappears.

In other words, by delaying action, you’re effectively pouring part of the value of your invoice down the drain.

💡 Credit control isn’t about being aggressive. It’s about protecting the value you’ve already created.

How long do you typically wait before taking firm action on an overdue invoice?
