Mr. Kevin R. McLeish has used his 10 years in the collection industry to develope the Skip Tracing Institute. He has worked directly on the front line in every positions involved in skip tracing. When it came to training skip tracers, he could not find a useful training tool and so the ABCs to Skip Tracing was developed. The Skip Tracing Institute is a virtual training facility which can be access via the internet at www.skiptracinginstitute.com and offers an interactive skip tracing training program. With The ABCs to Skip Tracing guide you are offered basic knowledge on locating anyone. Included in the 43 page guide are sample scripts for telephone conversations, which assist the beginner in gaining confidence. There are example of Form Letters, which could be used to gain information from banks, property management offices, employers and other sources. The guide includes a Tracing Quick List for reference while working files. As an added feature, the guide includes space for Notes and Contact Numbers. The information and procedures described in The ABCs to Skip Tracing have been used in professional skip tracing office environments and we are sure you will find its content useful and informative. The guide is meant to become a basic guideline for owners, supervisors and individuals interested in skip tracing. Skip tracers are primarily associated with collection agencies but are also a vital part of some credit granters recovery teams. Also, in recent years individuals have used these same techniques to locate family members and other missing persons. The Skip Tracing Institute and this guide has been developed to offer a better understanding of what skip tracing is all about. We have found that success comes when astute minds are armed with knowledge and experience; offered at the Skip Tracing Institute. |

"Kevin - I find the structure
and content… very clearly presented. The reading of the material is
very easy and educating... the overall design and the meanings presented
are well thought out and make the booklet both attractive and useful."
- John Herbert, Author Toronto, Canada "After 19 years this is the best tool I have seen; not only to assist in training but as a reminder to those who have been in the industry for years." - Jackie Mercer, Collection Supervisor Toronto, Canada "As the title suggests, it is the ABC s of Skip Tracing; easy to follow from cover to cover. Simple for a junior tracer to follow and, interestingly, for the senior tracers, it is a great reminder to take them back to basics. It has the ability to bring them back to good habits. I also enjoyed the fact that it is purse size which I found extremely handy." - Doreen Wilcock, Senior Legal Skip Tracer, The Collection House, Toronto, Canada
"I consider this informative condensed guide to skip tracing a beneficial tool in the training of new tracers as well as a handy reference and refresher for those experienced in the art. Kevin's vast knowledge and many years experience in the field of skip tracing are evident in this guide which would be an asset to all in the field." - Chuck Manchester, Canadian Debt Recovery LTD. Ontario, Canada "I found it very informative; I really like this training tool. I wish that all my collectors could have it." - Karen Granger, Acting Collection Supervisor, Canada Trust, Ontario
The ABCs to Skip Tracing was recently
previewed in 
Skiptracing Spelled Out "When he discovered the lack of skiptracing guides out there, Kevin McLeish, a consultant in credit investigatations, skiptracing and collections, decided to write his own. The result, The ABCs to Skiptracing, is a forty page manual with tips, source ideas and space for notes. McLeish, with the help of Graphic Artist Vv Blake, began writing the book using his 12 years of experience training skiptracers in Ontario collections agencies. The manual, which costs (now) $39.99 US. is general enough for use in both US and Canadian collectors." Professional Collectors Magazine
 
read article below from April 30th 1999, page 8. Bad Credit Decision? Find customers who don't want to be found. "High-tech tools like CD-ROM directories and call display can help. It happens to most creditors sooner or later. You try to contact a customer only to find that the phone's been disconnected or the addressee is unknown. Locating such "skips" can be tough. But tracking them down can also be extremely satisfying, suggests Kevin McLeish, author of The ABCs to Skip Tracing. Here are some tips that can help you succeed: Better Telephone Tracing The telephone is the best tool for skip tracing. First check Info Direct, a computer program that combines phone books, 411, crisscross (reverse) directories and postal code info on CD-ROM. If your skip is listed, call. Many times a change in number will be reported. If the phone number is no help, take the next step. Go back to a crisscross directory to find the names of other parties located at or near the old address. There may be a telephone at the specific address you're checking but not listed in the name of the debtor you're trying to locate. Keep in mind that your customer might have given you the wrong address. Simple Contact Cards Contact cards are particularly handy for making contacts with skips. Just mail them to your skip's known address. Give your name and phone number and ask them to get in touch with you ASAP. The idea is to entice the skip to respond, so try to make the card as interesting or mysterious as your imagination will allow. Then use call display to close the trap. When the customer calls, it will show the possible non-published number, new resident number - or even place of employment." |
