I have experience with this, I have to say: the collection issue depends on a few factors. Gather the data first, don't make emotional decisions.

Another perspective: maybe the fundamental problem with collection issues is something else. Think about it like this...
Look most business owners make the wrong choice in these situations. Be careful quick decisions often end in regret.
Correction: I misremembered the figure, it was a bit lower.
this was a problem for me too thx. ended up having to find another way. really stressful situation.

Technically speaking: there are two main factors in deciding on a collection strategy. Cost-benefit and risk management. Make decisions based on data.

Correct in theory, but it doesn't work that way in practice. Calculate how many months you can survive without revenue, then halve that number.
If I were you, I'd go this route.

How did you solve this? Processes without records never improve, because you don't know what to fix.
That's all, sorry if I went on too long.

There is something to watch out for. Splitting your budget without knowing where you're losing users is just throwing money in the dark.

We need to make a distinction here. Any unwritten clause becomes a point of disagreement later, as both sides remember it differently.

My question might sound amateurish, sorry about that. Taking notes for two weeks yields better results than a six-month estimate.
If it's your first time, start small; scaling comes later.

Just a heads-up. Measure first, then divide. When the order is right, the debate ends.

We got stuck at the same point for a while. The real issue isn't the number but what it's based on.
Solutions that work at a small scale collapse when you grow; I learned this late.
