| People consider the invoice factoring discount a small cost of doing business. A two-three-percent factoring discount for a 30-day invoice is common. Compared with the problem of not having cash when you need it to operate, the receivable credit line discount is negligible. Look at the invoice factoring company collecting the discount as though your business had offered the customer a discount for paying cash. It works out the same. How Invoice Factoring Works Setting up a factoring relationship is quick and easy in comparison to other forms of business financing. Applications simply call for basic company information and a customer list. Years of profitability are not required which makes invoice factoring an option for startups generating accounts receivables. It is possible that funding can occur in as little as a couple of days after the invoice factoring company receives your credit application and invoices. Benefits of Factoring Invoices Factoring invoices can offer many benefits to cash-hungry companies. Rather than wait 30, 60, 90 days or longer for payment on a product or service that has already been delivered, a business can factor (sell) its receivables for cash at a small discount off the amount of the invoice. Payroll, marketing efforts, and working capital are just a few of the business needs that can be met with this instant cash from factoring. Factoring invoices provides the means for a manufacturer to replenish inventory and make more products to sell: There is no longer a need to wait for earlier sales to be paid. Factoring is not just a cash management tool for manufacturers: Almost any type of business can benefit from factoring. Why Receivable Factoring Appeals to the Start-Ups Factoring is especially appealing to young and rapidly growing companies. Since the invoice factoring process shortens their business cash flow cycle, these businesses can grow faster. The ability to make more products to sell while waiting for invoices to be paid is largely eliminated. Such businesses usually net much more profit with receivables factoring than without, even when the credit discount is considered. Receivable Factoring Company vs. Bank Loans Factoring has been around for thousands of years. Financing companies pay cash for the right to receive the future payments on your receivables and invoices. An unpaid accounts receivable or invoice has value. It is a debt your customer has agreed to pay in the near future. So, why not simply go over to the friendly banker for an account receivable loan to alleviate cash flow problems? A small business credit loan can be difficult if not impossible to receive, especially for a young, high-growth operation, because small business money bankers are not expected to decrease lending restrictions soon. The relationships between businesses and their small business bankers are not as strong or as dependable as they used to be.
