Debt Collection: The Art and Science of Mental Rehearsal

What is Mental Rehearsal?

When learning about mental rehearsal, it’s important to understand that it is a proven tactic that can help anyone who wants to improve the way they perform. It has been put through the process of the scientific method with consistently reproducible results.

Mental Rehearsal Definition

Mental rehearsal is the act of using your internal voice and practicing a task inside your mind without the need to physically act it out. Research by Dr. Srini Pillay has found that imaginary practice stimulates the same regions in our brains when visualizing an action that are stimulated when actually performing that action.

A culture of helping makes this one of the best places to work

American Profit Recovery is a great place to build a career. Since 2008 we have been ranked as one of the best places to work in collections. And that comes straight from our team members.

For over a decade, we’ve gone through a time-consuming survey process that methodically ranks the best places to work in the collection industry. And it is well worth the effort. This survey involves ownership and team members and gives a complete snapshot of the employee experience.

One overarching part of that employee experience is the opportunity to help others. Because we know the only way to build a healthy and meaningful culture is to provide an environment where people feel fulfilled about […]

A financial setback can happen to any consumer

By Alexis:

Let be honest, when we hear “collection agency” we automatically have negative connotations. There is an unspoken stigma surrounding collection agencies and people that have accounts in collections, but what people don’t realize is there are a lot of people that have accounts in collections.

Having an account in collections should not be a source of shame. […]

Bonding with coworkers during employee week

By Greg:

We’re a little less than two weeks away from our Annual Employee Week and I am so looking forward to it.   This is a week we all look forward to.  It is a chance for the ownership team to show their thanks for all our hard work, and for us all to spend some fun time together in and out of the office.

We will be kicking off the week with a picnic on Monday night, an evening of bowling on Tuesday, and a trip to an Escape Room on Wednesday.  Throughout the week, we will be enjoying great food, fun games, and a lot of laughs.

Employee Week is another reason why I love […]

Why work for American Profit Recovery?

By Rema:

I had a friend ask me once why I decided to work in collections because my field of study was completely different. I said, my very first interview with, who is now my manager, career growth, the team, and flexibility of schedule. All of it.

Walking into a field with little to no knowledge about collections, I learned as time went on the importance of a collector and the impact he or she can make in a consumer’s life. My second interview came around and I was convinced to take that step forward and learn more about the agency and what it has to offer me. […]
