Get a Boost for your Business in 2016Invoice factoring presents your company a great option to accelerate cash flow and avoid the need for loans.  Tens of thousands of businesses have successfully taken advantage of this proven service.  Basically, invoice factoring provides a way for a business to sell its accounts receivables balance to a service provider, who in turn delivers funds immediately to the business.  Any balance from the transaction, less service fees, is forwarded to the company.

The following are some key benefits to consider with invoice factoring:

  • Your business gets a boost of cash quickly – you do not need to wait on invoice payments in order to move forward with your business initiatives.
  • There is minimal risk – because the transactions are handled transparently and all parties can clearly understand the process.
  • Available at any time – your business can take advantage of invoice factoring anytime you need.  The monies can be used to launch marketing campaigns, new product launches, expand your territory, or simply to get ahead of debt.
  • Size doesn’t matter – companies of all sizes and industries can utilize invoice factoring as long as they have an accounts receivable balance to manage.  A one person consulting company or a one thousand employee manufacturing company can realize the benefits of factoring.

 

Taking the First Steps

To get started on factoring. the steps include:

  1. Presenting your accounts receivable records to the service provider of your choice.  The provider will determine an initial estimate of the cash that can be made available, pending review.
  2. The review of your customer accounts will determine the creditworthiness and help the factoring provider with a final quotation.  Invoices are also reviewed to confirm they are valid.
  3. Typically in a week or less, your business receives a cash payment for the amount determined.
  4. Your customers are notified to make payments to your factoring provider.  As payments are made they are applied to the factored balance.  Any remaining difference, less a service fee of two to six percent, is passed to your business account.

Most companies can easily take advantage of this service.  Some businesses that have a significant number of delinquent accounts may not qualify.  Once the factoring transactions are completed you can use the service again or resume normal activities.
