Receivables Financing and Your Business
by Kevin Smith AuthorYou've
heard the story of the small bakery business that needed money for a large
repair. Or the medium-sized jewelry business that outgrew their current space
and needed to find a new one quickly before their lease was up. Or the small
bus company that needed to repave their parking lot. Every day, many small and
medium-sized businesses face the risk of failure due to a large, unexpected
expense or even on they expected but just didn't make enough money to cover.
How can financing receivables in Columbus, GA help companies like this stay on
their feet while making the needed changes to continue to operate? By working
with you to get your money faster while you wait for payment.
How Does It Work?
Often,
your customers want payment terms of 30, 60 or 90 days. Of course, you give it
to them because often they're repeat customers or ones with solid reputations
in the community, so you know they'll pay it. But in the meantime, you're stuck
without the cash on hand. That's where receivables financing comes in.
Receivables financing works by basically providing your business a cash advance
on it's receivables, so you don't have to wait for that customer to pay. You
would provide the service to your customer as usual, so there's no interruption
for them and the quality of your work remains. A third-party company would then
provide you a percentage of the outstanding invoice amount while you wait for
the invoice to be paid. Once the invoice is paid, the company takes a small fee
out for their service and gives you back the rest. So you've had the money and
been able to use it for what you need up front, and you still get most of the
remainder of the payment once completed.
How Does It Help?
When
you're not waiting for invoices to be paid to get cash, you're able to do
things quicker and more efficiently than you would otherwise. If you have the
funds up front, you're able to take on more business quickly, which contributes
positively to your bottom line. When you're able to increase your workload, you
have more outstanding invoices, which also provides you the opportunity to
finance more receivables and continue to stay far ahead of the curve and build
your business quicker. Financing receivables in Columbus, GA is a
great way to increase cash quicker, thus more quickly building your business
and your brand in the local community.
