AR automation for contractors
Stop chasing payments and get back on the jobsite
The job’s done, the punch list is signed off, and you’re still texting the homeowner about the final draw three weeks later. Every hour spent chasing a check is an hour you’re not bidding the next job.
Contractors and the trades live with the worst of receivables: large balances, progress draws, retainage and customers who go quiet the moment the work is finished. Chasing payment means stopping real work to send awkward texts and emails. JMJ Billings runs a consistent, professional follow-up cadence on every invoice — from your company’s own domain — so the asks keep going out while you’re on the next job.

Why contractors businesses choose JMJ
Follow-up that fits how contractors actually gets paid
-
Handle progress draws and retainage
Multi-stage billing and held-back retainage are where money quietly slips. JMJ keeps the right cadence on every remaining balance until it’s paid.
-
Cut your DSO on big balances
Consistent, professional escalation is designed to shorten the time between “job complete” and “paid in full” — and free up the working capital tied to it.
-
Never send an angry text again
Attorney-reviewed templates keep every message firm and professional, so a heated late-night text never costs you a referral or a review.
-
Protect repeat GCs and builders
The general contractors who feed you steady work are auto-flagged as reliable payers and handled with a lighter touch.
How it works
Set it up once. Then mostly forget about it.
JMJ runs on top of how you already bill. You connect your invoices; the platform does the chasing, reads every reply, and brings you only the handful of decisions that actually need a human.
- 01
Connect your invoices
Bring in your open invoices from QuickBooks, your spreadsheet, or however you bill today. Keep working exactly the way you already do — JMJ runs on top.
- 02
We run the 9-stage cadence
From first courtesy reminder to final escalation, JMJ sends professional, attorney-reviewed follow-ups on every unpaid invoice — automatically, on schedule, from your own domain.
- 03
AI triages every reply
When a customer responds, JMJ reads and understands it, flags disputes and promises to pay, and surfaces only the decisions that actually need you.
- 04
You approve — or we recover
Most weeks your whole job is a few quick-click approvals. If a balance still won’t pay, JMJ hands it to collections — fully documented, at half the standard agency rate.
The difference
From your own domain — invisibly.
This is the part no other tool does. Every reminder, every statement, every escalation goes out from your email domain, under your business name, in your voice. Your customers see the company they hired — not a third-party collections tool, and never JMJ.
- Your sending domain. Messages come from you@yourbusiness.com — authenticated for premium inbox deliverability.
- Your brand, every stage. Attorney-reviewed templates carry your name and tone from first reminder to final notice.
- JMJ stays invisible. The work happens behind the scenes. Your customers only ever see your business.
FAQ
Contractors AR questions, answered
The questions contractors owners ask most before they start.
Do I keep using QuickBooks for my jobs?
Yes. JMJ works alongside your existing billing — you don’t change how you bill. JMJ adds the follow-up layer on top.
Will my customers know a third party is messaging them?
No. Every reminder is sent from your own domain and brand. The homeowner or GC sees your company, not JMJ.
Is this debt collection?
No. JMJ is managed accounts receivable, not a debt collector. We keep invoices moving professionally in your name; only a truly delinquent balance is handed to collections, fully documented, at half the standard rate.
