Carol,
Did you have a written contract with this firm? Did it outline any abitratiion or non payment clauses? Has the customer accepted your products/services and made benefical use of them without exception or complaint?.. Collection agency will track the debtor down, and keep at them until they make arrangements to pay. You sign the invoice over to them. Based on thier ability to get payment they will offer you a sum of money ( not all of the invocie.) Large or small a company needs cash coming in to keep on functioning.
Another option among many legal ones is a mechanics lien, where you go to court and show a judge that you performed work for the defendent company and want satisfiaction which they have not as of yet provided.
