Most credit union collections teams start outreach around day 11. By then, members in real financial stress have already moved past the point where a routine reminder lands. The credit unions cutting delinquencies before they hit the 60-day reporting threshold are doing one thing differently: they make first contact on day 1. This article is for Senior Collection Leaders at credit unions who want to make that shift. We will walk through why the old day-11 cadence stopped working, what senior risk leaders are now seeing in the broader economy, and how to build the day-1 workflow without adding headcount.
