How? Using an alternative funding
method called Accounts Receivable Funding (Popularly known as "Factoring")
What is Accounts Receivable Funding?
Widely accepted as an alternative
financing source, accounts receivable funding, also known as "factoring,"
is used extensively in almost every industry by companies that need
immediate cash (either for growth or for survival) and may or may
not qualify for traditional loans or grants.
With accounts receivable funding, your
invoices for goods or services rendered to your customers can be
converted into immediate cash to better manage and expand your business.
Some of the more common industries that rely on accounts receivable
funding to maintain a steady flow of cash include:
- Personnel/temporary agencies
- Trucking companies Hospitals Physicians
- Caterers
- Commercial printers
- Commercial bakeries
- Manufacturers
- Wholesalers
- Importers
- Distributors
- Apparel (garments, textiles)
- Communications companies
- Footwear manufacturers
- Toys and sporting goods
- Security companies
- High-tech and related industry
- Cable installers
- Professional services (legal, accounting)
- Medical groups
- Nursing homes
- Assisted living facilities
Any business that's generating invoices
to another business or the government qualifies to utilize accounts
receivable funding as a way to get immediate cash to grow their
business!
Benefits of Factoring Receivables
Factoring is a flexible financial solution that can help your business
be more competitive while improving your cash flow, credit rating,
and supplier discounts.
Offer better terms, Win more business,
Be more competitive!
With Factoring, you can attract more
business by offering better terms in your invoices. Most companies
negotiate on a price to win business in a competitive market. But,
with Factoring, you can negotiate with terms instead of a price.
To your customers, better terms can be more attractive than better
prices. When using attractive terms to win business, you can build
the cost of factoring into your costs of good and services.
Example: A new customer may choose to do business with your
company because you can offer NET 60 or NET 90 terms even though
your competitor (who isn't factoring) can only offer NET 30 terms
but has a 5% better price. If you factor the subsequent invoice
at a discount of 5%, you have leveraged factoring services to win
the business at no extra cost and improved your cash flow at the
same time. With advanced funding you can pay your suppliers early
to receive a discount on your next order and improve your overall
margins.
Immediate access to unlimited working capital. No
new debt. Eliminate long billing cycles. In receiving cash for your
outstanding invoices in 24-48 hours, no new debt is created. Factoring
is not a loan. This allows you to preserve your financial leverage
to take on new debt and increases your purchasing power and provides
cash for marketing, expansion, and new equipment.
- Focus on Growing Your Business
- The Factor assumes the responsibility
and risk of collecting payment.
- The Factor does most of the work
processing invoices, saving you time.
- Take advantage of supplier discounts
- Build your credit rating.
The increased cash flow from Factoring
will allow you to pay your vendors earlier or buy in larger quantities.
Oftentimes you can offset the cost of Factoring by taking advantage
of supplier discounts offered when you pay faster or buy in larger
quantities.
Flexibility
Factor as much as you want or as little as you want. You decide.
No obligations. No binding contracts. There are No minimums and
No maximums in the amount you can factor. Funding is based on the
strength of your customers.
Other benefits of factoring?
- It stimulates cash flow.
- There are no stipulations about
how to use the money.
- It does not create debt on your
balance sheet.
- It increases your purchasing power,
enabling you to do more business.
- Eliminates the need for bank loans
or SBA Loans.
- Improves your credit rating and
gives you cash to meet your obligations.
- Eliminates using equipment, real
estate or inventory for collateral.
- Saves on your in-house staff costs.
- Presents a professional image to
your clients.
- Eliminates the need for venture
capitalists or partners that share in decision-making and profits.
- Receive credit reports at reasonable
rates.
- Enables you to meet payroll, pay
your taxes on time, and eliminate the need to file bankruptcy.
Factoring Versus Bank Loans
In many situations, factoring
is more appropriate than bank financing because factoring:
- Is based only
on the strength of your invoice (customers). A clients ability
to raise cash by factoring is based on the total accounts receivable,
rather than on traditional measures of financial strength and
stability of your company.
- Provides continuing
cash flow with no requirement of periodic payments or interim
payoffs. New sales continuously create new power to obtain cash,
and the business does not have to deal with the renewal of loans
or worry about maturity dates. No debts!!!
- Gives a business unlimited
access to cash as sales and receivables increase. There is no
ceiling beyond which the factor must stop providing cash. The
more sales a business makes, the more cash it can draw. The factor
does not concentrate on the business debt/equity ratio to provide
funds as banks do.
- Offers a dependable,
continuing source of cash without the necessity of making separate
loan applications. There is only one setup process, then you control
how much and how often. It's like a cash machine you can utilize
whenever the need arises. If you need more cash, send us another
invoice. You control the relationship - always!
- Avoids the necessity
of obtaining funds from venture capitalists, who receive an interest
(ownership) in the business and generally have a say in how the
business is run. You retain management control.
- Saves time and allows
you to focus on running the business. The business owner isn't
waiting for a Loan Board to grant or deny his or her loan. Loan
Boards decisions are influenced by many considerations,
and the outcome is often unpredictable. With factoring, periodic
delays and negotiations are eliminated, allowing the business
owner time to do what he or she does best run the business.
