Distributor Factoring Company
Distributors sometimes offer a 2% discount to their customers who pay in ten days or less. It seems like a logical solution to your working capital issues. While this might work with some of your customers, it will not work with the majority of them, as your customers; also suffer from positive working capital. You need to focus on what you do best, which is growing your business and increasing sales; we will do what we do best, which is invoice factoring. Let us help you with your working capital needs, but providing you with rapid funds for your aging invoice. Factoring is not a debt and it's not a loan, we simply purchase your account receivables at a discount rate. Having working capital brings you new opportunities, such as business expansion, meeting your growing payroll demands, buying new equipment and most of all, it allows you to offer new credit terms to more customers. Many distributors are strapped for cash, making it difficult to offer credit terms to new customers, which equates to lost opportunity for business growth. You can now feel secure, offering longer credit terms and taking on new customers, knowing that you will be funding within 24 hours after the verification process, even if your customer pays us in 90 days. This is why so many Distributors turn to the invoice factoring industry, to solve their account receivable issues.
What's the difference between distributor financing and distributor factoring?
Nothing, it's the same exact thing. Some people are only familiar with the term factoring and other know the program as invoice financing. We use both terms so all parties understand what we are referring to. Both terms in our industry refer to selling your invoices at a discounted rate for immediate cash. This is not a loan, there is no APR. You sell us an invoice we send you your money. Your customers pay us directly. Once this transaction is completed, you sell us the next invoice and we repeat the process.
