Can Factoring Help My Business?
Factoring is unknown to many business owners, misunderstood by some, and often available to those who cannot obtain a small business loan from a bank, the SBA, or anywhere else.
Factoring is an alternative means of business financing rapidly increasing in popularity, though it has been in existence for centuries. It is not a loan which create a debt on your balance sheet you must repay. Nor is it venture capital, which requires you to give up ownership in your company. Rather, factoring is the sale of an asset: your accounts receivable. That is, without having to pay back a bank or lose control of your company, you sell your invoices to a factor to obtain immediate cash.
The process is repeated as often as you wish ? without the need to re-apply each time ? thereby providing steady cash flow that is limited only by your sales. Your factor is paid back by your customers; so as long as you factor steady (but slower), dependable-paying customers, you have no debt to repay and very predictable cash flow. While factoring's cost is higher than traditional bank loans, its flexibility offers several advantages that can both stabilize and steadily grow your business.
"Factoring: Sell Your Invoices Today, Get Cash Tomorrow" explains everything you want to know about factoring your receivables, including:
? Types of businesses that qualify and the requirements to be approved.
? Why many companies turned down by banks are accepted by factors.
? What to expect in the application process and its speed compared to bank loans.
? Common factoring procedures and why they are utilized.
? How to inform your customers you are factoring in a way that strengthens your business.
? A flowchart of the pre-funding steps, plus another of a normal factoring transaction from start to finish.

From the Author?
I have enjoyed working with small companies for many years now. I?ve seen innumerable business owners, prior to factoring, struggle to stabilize their cash flow, meet payroll, and grow their business. Far too many find these normal business requirements painfully difficult because they simply have to wait to get paid by their customers. While employees? paychecks and regular bills must be paid on time, they have to wait weeks or months for their customers? payments to finally arrive. Talk about stressful
Factoring solves this problem. I have seen one business owner after another get on their feet and enjoy steady growth because they factor their invoices. When used properly, this is a remarkable tool that not only works, but works extremely well.
I have written this book so that:
1. The thousands ? millions ? of small business owners needing steady cash flow can learn about this financial tool.
2. They can determine if factoring will benefit their companies; it can help a great many, but not every last one.
3. They have guidance finding the best factor to meet their unique needs.
This book does all three.
