Business Factoring

Well the Business Sector sure has taken a hit this last year or 2 as we as Business owners try to muddle through the landmines of building a business. It can be a daunting task. It will if you're not careful suck the life right out of you. In today's market and economy it can be very difficult to try to start a business let alone keep one alive and flourishing. There are ways to avoid the pitfalls of possibly going out of business but you as a business owner need to be aware of what avenues are available to you and if that avenue will fit your specific need. I have never believed in the "herd" mentality when it comes to business. Everyone is completely different and has different needs. I will discuss one option to consider today in this article that might help your business out.

If you're in business and you run credit cards or are planning on running credit cards this is a must read article. Now, we all know there are only a handful of options available to us as business owners when starting a business one of them is getting a merchant account, a way to run credit card transactions. Having a merchant account can be extremely important to the survival of your new or existing venture. I have a lot of clients that do run on a cash basis and do not take credit cards or payments. What we do in this situation is number 1 set them up a merchant account. Once they set up a merchant account is brings credibility to your business model. By running credit card payments you're showing a possible investor that you can handle and maintain your clients and payments. Also it shows the Banks and lenders that your business can survive and weather the storms. Let me give you some examples of what factoring is. Factoring is when you take your account receivables and receive funding from your processor or a 3rd party company. If you run 50k a week in business then you can in some cases receive money based off what you run each month or each week, it all depends on how you set it up. Here are some examples:

1) Factoring is a financial transaction whereby a business sells its accounts receivables at a discount in exchange for money. Let this be clear. Simple

2) Do research prior to going down this avenue. There are companies that will allow you to arrange a plan on how your payments back to the lender will be. What I mean by this is if you run 50k one week and your re-payment is 600.00 and then the next week you run 35k your payment would be 400.00. Look into all options as there are a lot of companies offering this type of funding. Don't get stuck in something you can't fulfill.

3) Factoring will definitely free up cash flow for any business. If your running in the red all the time and barely making your bills this type of funding will allow you to free up some cash, make on time payments still for your business obligations and most importantly you won't miss out on an investment opportunity that come your way because now you DO have the funds to proceed.

4) This type of funding can be expensive but ask yourself this question, if you're not planning on going out of business and you can support the cause of actually getting the funding you need then who cares? Right?

We all as business owners go through ups and downs it's the nature of the beast. Let's be honest here, if it really was this simple wouldn't everyone be in business for themselves. CNN quoted not too long ago that the Small Business Sector of our Country (USA) makes up 95% of business owners. Imagine if all businesses take credit cards and process payments. Imagine if us (the little guy) as they call us didn't push forward and be creative and help this country grow, then where would we be?

Factoring can be vital to a business in any industry in any market anywhere in the world. Be sure to be creative and look for other alternative ways to fund your business. This is one of the best ways to help a business make it through the rough times and free up cash flow. Cash is King remember! Thanks for the reads and remember as the market changes, we change!
