AI Employees for Credit Repair & Debt Counselling: Follow-Ups Without Chasing

Credit repair and debt counselling firms are built on consistent contact.
Miss one follow-up, lose one client, and the economics start to break.

AI employees from AI Automated Solutions give you a digital team that handles the grind — lead intake, document collection, payment reminders and check-ins — while your advisors focus on plans, negotiations and support.

The problem: heavy admin, fragile relationships

If you run a credit repair, debt counselling or budgeting service, you’ll recognise this:

Leads come in from ads and referrals at all hours
Advisors spend hours chasing documents and bank statements
Payment reminders are manual and inconsistent
Clients go quiet when things get tough
Regulators expect clear records of consent, contact and advice

The work is emotionally heavy. When admin piles up, both staff and clients suffer.

What AI employees do in your practice

1. Intake and pre-qualification

An AI WhatsApp agent:

Greets new leads and explains the process in plain language
Captures basic information: income, obligations, arrears, living situation
Shares POPIA-aligned consent wording and terms
Books a consult with an advisor or generates a callback task
Logs everything in InOne CRM with source and timestamps

Your advisors start conversations with context instead of cold.

2. Document collection and plan setup

Digital employees then:

Send personalised checklists (bank statements, ID, payslips, creditor letters)
Nudge clients who haven’t completed uploads
Confirm when a file is “complete” and ready for analysis
Share draft plans and next steps over WhatsApp or email

This removes the constant “Hi, just checking if you’ve sent those documents yet?” from your team’s day.

3. Payment reminders and check-ins

Using our AI callers and WhatsApp flows:

AI callers remind clients of upcoming payments with respectful, scripted voice nudges
Follow-up WhatsApps provide “Pay now / Change date / Talk to us” buttons
Missed or partial payments trigger different journeys (support, restructure, escalation)
All events are logged back into the CRM for audit and analytics

Clients feel supported, not hounded — and your cash flow stabilises.

4. Progress updates and retention

Digital employees:

Share simple progress summaries (“3 of 10 creditors updated”, “2 defaults removed”, etc.)
Nudge clients to celebrate milestones and stay committed to the plan
Offer top-ups or new services when clients graduate successfully

You increase retention and lifetime value without extra manual effort.

The outcome: stable cash flow, less burnout

For founders and operations managers:

Higher conversion from enquiry to signed plan
More predictable collections, thanks to consistent reminders
Less advisor burnout, because AI takes care of repetitive chasing
Better regulatory defensibility, with clean consent and contact logs
Clear reporting: cohorts, recovery rates, churn drivers, advisor performance

You protect both your clients and your margins.
