You’d think the hardest part of running a mid-sized machine shop would be the shop floor. Things like meeting deadlines, handling custom projects (and problem customers), and staying ahead of the competition.
But the real struggle hit us where we didn’t expect: accounts receivable.
Our team spent over 20 hours a month chasing overdue payments. We’d send reminders and manage everything manually. Worse, it took an agonizing 48 days to get paid on average. It was beyond frustrating. It was inefficient and held us back from investing in what we needed to grow.
We realized something had to change. We needed a system to take the busy work out of A/R and help us get paid faster. So we partnered with MakeGood.
Every week, our team was bogged down in manual admin tasks like drafting emails, sending reminders, and tracking overdue accounts. It took hours, and we still couldn’t stay ahead.
The MakeGood Fix: MakeGood automated those processes. Now, we have scheduled reminders for outstanding invoices and automated workflows for pursuing overdue accounts. And most importantly, our team gets back 20 hours every month to focus on projects that actually help the business grow.
Waiting 48 days to get paid wasn’t just inconvenient. It was a problem. It slowed us down when we needed to invest in new equipment or take on larger projects. Cash flow felt like a constant guessing game.
The MakeGood Fix: We’ve cut our Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) to just 35 days. That improvement has made a world of difference. With payments coming in faster, we’re no longer stuck waiting to move forward.
Tracking outstanding invoices manually was messy, stressful, and left us vulnerable to mistakes. It was a constant distraction. We were managing the process ourselves when it should have been working for us.
The MakeGood Fix: Now that MakeGood handles it all, from sending invoices to tracking payments, we’re confident that no invoice gets overlooked. The process is no longer a distraction — it’s smooth and reliable, like a well-oiled machine (and we should know).
Since bringing on MakeGood, we’ve completely turned things around. Here’s what’s changed:
MakeGood gave us back control of our business. No longer stuck in the grind of managing A/R, we’re confident in our cash flow and ready to take on new challenges.
If you’re ready to take control of your accounts receivable, MakeGood makes it easy—start now.
