From the Author...
The Small Factor Series is based on two decades I've spent working in the factoring industry. I wrote the books to help those entering the industry get it right the first time.
Factoring offers business funding to vast numbers of small business owners who often have never heard of it, and who are unable to obtain a bank loan. Individuals and small companies who provide this alternative business financing through buying invoices offer a much needed service in this (and any) economy.
But buying accounts receivable can be risky for the investor. I want readers avoid the mistakes small factors make when starting and running their business. My books help entrepreneurial investors recognize the risks inherent in factoring, and provide common sense practices and strategies to minimize risk and maximize profits. They also introduce and explain factoring to small business owners who will benefit from this form of alternative financing, instead of just trying to obtain (often unsuccessfully) ordinary bank loans.
"How to Run a Small Factoring Business" and its earlier versions have been the "User's Guide" for small factoring companies for many years. I am pleased to present this latest work that provides new resources, updated procedures, plus many experiences from my own business, and put them all together in one book.
