Fixed-scope implementation for creative agencies

Stop running overdue-invoice follow-up from memory.

In seven days, turn your agency's existing QuickBooks Online aging report into a clear owner, next-action, reminder, and visibility workflow.

Operations setup only. No bookkeeping changes, bank access, aggressive collections, or guaranteed financial outcome.

The operational result

A follow-up system your team can actually see and run.

Clear ownership

Every in-scope overdue invoice gets one owner, one next action, and one next-action date.

Approved follow-up

Four reminder stages are mapped to aging conditions, with language approved before use.

Visible exceptions

Native reminders and one supported alert path are tested, documented, and handed off.

Seven-day delivery

Configure, test, and hand off—without changing the books.

The work starts with a client-run screen share or a redacted aging export. Shared passwords are never accepted.

  1. Day 1

    Map the current process

    A 45-minute kickoff defines the invoice scope, current handoffs, and approval owner.

  2. Days 2–3

    Build the next-action system

    Up to 50 open invoices receive an owner, next action, due date, and aging-based reminder stage.

  3. Days 4–5

    Configure reminders and visibility

    Buyer-approved templates, supported native reminders, and one bounded alert workflow are configured.

  4. Days 6–7

    Test and hand off

    Authorized test events, reconciliation checks, a handoff checklist, and a 30-minute walkthrough close the sprint.

Start with fit, not a sales presentation

Is the sprint right for your agency?

If this page was shared with a proposal, reply in that same business-platform thread with “fit check”. Otherwise, start a buyer or partner inquiry at [email protected]. A 15-minute conversation will confirm invoice volume, QuickBooks Online use, approval ownership, and whether the seven-day scope is realistic.

When a business-platform thread exists, keep the conversation there.
