COLLECTORS 

Every collection agency has one thing in common.  They all have one top collector.  One guy or gal who outperforms everyone else.

If your  account happens to land on their desk then you are getting the best that agency has to offer.  If not....well .  Solberg & Kennedy finds those top collectors and hires them.  In that way, we benefit by having the best producing more revenue for our company.  But most importantly, our clients benefit by not having to worry which desk their file happens to land on any given day.

ETHICS

Below are Solberg & Kennedy's "3R's"  for Ethical Business Operations 

                                      Respect, Responsibility, Results 

The first "R" of business ethics is RESPECT. It is an attitude that must be applied to people, organizational resources and your environment. Respect includes behavior such as:

• Treating everyone (customers, co-workers, vendors, etc.) with dignity and courtesy.
• Using company supplies, equipment, time, and money appropriately, efficiently, and for business use only.
• Protecting and improving your work environment, and abiding by laws, rules and regulations that exist to protect our world and our way of life.

 The second "R" of business ethics is RESPONSIBILITY. You have a responsibility to your customers, your co-workers, your organization and yourself. Included are behaviors such as:

• Providing timely, high-quality goods and services.
• Working collaboratively and carrying your share of the load.
• Meeting all performance expectations and adding value.

 The third "R" of business ethics is RESULTS. Essential in attaining results is an understanding that the way results are attained - the "means" - are every bit as important if not more important than the ultimate goals - the "ends." Using the phrase "The ends justify the means" is an excuse that is too often used to explain an emotional response, or action that was not well planned or carefully considered.

Obviously, you are expected to get results for your organization and for your customers. However, you are also expected to get those results legally and morally, by being ethical. If you lose sight of the distinction, you jeopardize your job, your business and your career.

By considering Respect, Responsibility and Results before taking action you will avoid the following common rationalizations for not doing what's right:

• "Everyone else does it."
• "They'll never miss it."
• "Nobody will care."
• "The boss does it."
• "No one will know."
• "I don't have time to do it right."
• "That's close enough."
• "Some rules were meant to be broken."
• "It's not my job."
