Title: How to Start a Home-Based Collection Agency by Robert H. Bills ISBN: 0-9728430-0-0 Publisher: Eatonbrook Publishing Pub. Date: 15 February, 2003 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $29.95 |

Summary: Some good information, but not nearly enough
Comment: While this book does cover a lot of topics related to the debt collection industry, it does not cover a single one of them in any detail. It is a very thin book that has large print.
I was hoping for some hard numbers on what kind of rates are normal for buying and selling debt different types of debt, but all I could find was that the author usually charges a 25% commission.
At $16.95 I suppose it's wasn't too much pay for a few pieces of good advice.

Summary: THIS BOOK WAS JUST WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR
Comment: This book was everything I wanted. It was advertised to be a "primer" which by definition means a book that covers the basic elements of a subject.
As someone in the thinking stage of starting a home based collection agency I found this book extremely helpful. I now have a resource that gives me basic information related to various state license contacts, collection software, useful links, freelance help, the Fair Debt Collection Act, sample collection / sale letters and more. This is the type of information I wanted.
Should I decide to start this type of home-based business, I will then search out additional (and more expensive) information from sources like The American Collectors Association.
If someone has an extensive hands-on debt collection experience and broad industry knowledge, this may not be the book for you. I do not have such a background and found this book to be an excellent beginners guide.
