Saving 95 Hours a Month: How ProRestore Automated AR and Cut Payment Delays by 67%

ProRestore Services

ProRestore Services, a trusted provider of disaster restoration solutions, has specialized in water, fire, and mold damage restoration for residential and commercial clients for over two decades. With a growing business, ProRestore faced increasing cash flow challenges, exacerbated by delayed payments from customers and insurance companies. These payment delays constrained their ability to reinvest in the growth of the business and maintain operations smoothly.

The Challenge

ProRestore's accounts receivable (AR) process was fully manual, leading to significant delays in payments and cash flow instability. Their small two-person AR team was spending more than 67 hours per month manually following up on invoices, with payment delays exceeding 90 days, especially from insurance companies. Managing these collections via spreadsheets made it difficult to track outstanding invoices, follow up systematically, and forecast cash flow. This inefficiency left ProRestore in a reactive state, scrambling to manage receivables and putting pressure on day-to-day operations.

We were spending way too much time chasing unpaid invoices. Some went unpaid for over 180 days, which seriously impacted our cash flow and ability to grow.
