Read faster and collect more Dollars
The Collector must scan data before phoning the debtor. As the Collector's "golden hours" are when on the phone with debtors, it is vital to minimize file-scanning time... yet do a complete scan.
Here, then, is a way to triple reading speed... and not lose comprehension. Perform a simple exercise five minutes per evening... for twenty consecutive evenings. Then, motivated by your own success, teach your Collectors to do the same thing.
Obtain a magazine. Begin reading at your normal reading speed. Then, force yourself to read faster. Force yourself to a faster reading speed until you can't understand what you are reading. Maintain that speed. In two or three evenings, your comprehension will return... at that higher speed.
When your comprehension returns, again force speedier reading. Again increase speed until that comprehension disappears. Again maintain that speed, until in two or three evenings... your comprehension will again return.
Keep doing this. In twenty evenings, you'll have tripled (or more) your reading speed. No cop-out reading, either. You'll be looking at all the words.
People limit reading speed by thinking the sounds of the words. When you speed beyond sound-thinking speed, you'll have made a discovery: You never did need to think the sounds of the words. The eye is a camera. All you had to do all the time was to see the words.
The key: Resist the temptation to quit when you lose comprehension. It will return.
Speedier file-scanning assures more time for those golden hours (on the phone with the debtor). More golden hours assure more dollars collected... without working harder or longer.
And you have the time for this. And you can't beat the price.
