The Trusted Advisor Network
Help your clients collect what they're owed, without becoming the collector.
Invoice Recovery Network is a selective program for accountants, bookkeepers, fractional CFOs, suppliers, and finance professionals who sit closest to commercial receivables. You refer the invoices that won't pay; we recover them on contingency and handle your client's customer professionally, so you stay the trusted advisor, never the collector.
Earn 10% of our recovery fee for the life of every client you refer — about 1.5% of everything we actually collect — plus a $1,500 bonus for every client you refer with $300,000+ in signed accounts.
Recovery is performed by Midwest Service Bureau, LLC — a commercial collection agency in Wichita, Kansas, serving all 50 states since 1970.

What you earn
Earn 10% of our recovery fee for the life of every client you refer — about 1.5% of everything we actually collect
Because our commercial fee averages about 15% of what we collect, your 10% works out to roughly 1.5% of the money we actually recover on that client, for as long as they stay a client. And for every client you refer with more than $300,000 in signed accounts, you earn an automatic $1,500 bonus on top.
