We provide funding options through ACH, wire transfer, and electronic invoice submission. Each of these options incurs a small fee, which we'll clearly explain in our factoring proposal. We don't charge any setup fees like the others. Additionally, there are no monthly minimum fees or any other types of fees that you may encounter with us.

Are there any monthly minimums? What kind of agreement do I need to sign?

No obligations or minimum commitments! In fact, you can personally choose which invoices you want us to help you with. Additionally, our agreements can start from as short as 90 days.

What do I need to submit for approval and how long does the process take?

Complete a simple and convenient online application and provide the requested documents, including proof of insurance, a scanned copy of your driver's license, legal documentation such as Articles of Incorporation or Fictitious Business Name Statement (DBA filing), a copy of your W-form, and perhaps one or two more documents depending on the size of your business. Normally, within 2hours, you can expect to receive a proposal, and the entire process, from start to receiving the funds, usually takes about to days.

Factoring Broken Down Simply

Imagine your business is a high-powered sports car, sleek and full of potential. But what good is it without fuel? That's where factoring comes into play. It's not just a financial jargon; it's the high-octane fuel that keeps your business racing ahead. By converting your unpaid invoices into immediate cash, factoring supercharges your cash flow, ensuring that your business engine is always running at full throttle.

 

Here's the breakdown. You have invoices, right? Outstanding ones that feel like they're on a world tour before getting paid. Factoring companies are like the pit crew in a race. They take these invoices off your hands, give you a significant chunk of their value upfront, and then handle the collection. Once your client pays, they pass on the remainder to you, minus a fee. It's a seamless pit stop to keep you racing without a hitch.

 

Beyond the obvious influx of cash, factoring is about strategic empowerment. It frees you from the shackles of uncertain cash flow, enabling you to make bold business moves with confidence. No more pacing around, worrying about invoice payments. Plus, it offloads the hassle of chasing down clients for payment, clearing your track for more important business strategies.

 

Who’s best suited for this? If you're in an industry with extended payment cycles – think manufacturing, wholesale, or transportation – factoring is like having a turbocharger. And for smaller businesses, those agile racers in the business world, factoring can be the nitrous boost you need to compete with the big players, keeping your cash flow as dynamic as your ideas.

 

Remember, the right factoring company is more than a service provider; they're your pit crew. You need one that's transparent with their fees, quick on their services, and understands the race you're in. A good factoring partner doesn't just fuel your business; they help tune it to peak performance, ensuring you're always race-ready.

But even the mightiest face challenges, and Tom, a man known for his resilience, was beginning to feel the strain of the hurdles that began to crowd his path.

Challenges

Regulatory Compliance

The first of these challenges was regulatory compliance. An honest man by nature, Tom believed in abiding by the rules, but the ever-rising costs of permits, licenses, and necessary safety equipment upgrades were draining his cash reserves. This financial burden threatened to destabilize his company's operations.

Unpredictable Fuel Costs

And then there were the unpredictable fuel costs. This significant and fluctuating expense was a thorn in his side, wreaking havoc with his budgeting. But it was a necessary evil, fuel being the lifeblood of his operations.

Equipment and Maintenance Costs

Equipment costs and maintenance, another undeniable reality, were constantly nibbling away at his finances. Tom knew the importance of maintaining and promptly replacing equipment for his company's success. However, these expenses were steadily eroding his financial resources.

Insurance Costs

Insurance costs, a mandatory expense, consumed a large portion of Tom's budget. With the cash flow dwindling, making timely insurance payments was turning into an uphill task.

The Bigger Picture

All these hurdles left Tom battling fires on all fronts, with no opportunity to address the competition or the industry-wide driver shortage.

Navigating the Financial Challenges in Plano

Janitorial businesses, much like other industries, face various challenges that are key to their success. Let's examine some of these issues and understand how the involvement of a factoring company can be beneficial:

Managing Cash Flow: Cash flow is often a significant concern for janitorial companies, given that their contracts usually involve a payment timeline of 30 to 90 days after services are rendered. Factoring companies can alleviate this challenge by purchasing these unpaid invoices, thereby providing the janitorial company with immediate funds to ensure the smooth operation of their business.

Business Growth: The aspiration to expand is a common trait amongst janitorial businesses, requiring significant investment in workforce, equipment, and occasionally, training. By advancing immediate funds against the outstanding invoices, factoring companies can aid these businesses in seizing new opportunities without having to wait for the payment of existing invoices.

Debt Avoidance: Incurring additional loans or debt is often a cause of concern for businesses. Factoring introduces an approach to increase working capital without falling into debt, as it is a transaction where the company sells its receivables at a discount.

Delayed Payments and Defaults: The ordeal of dealing with late payments or defaults is a common worry. Factoring companies can shoulder the burden of the collection process, relieving janitorial companies from the stress of chasing payments. Additionally, some factoring companies provide non-recourse factoring, thereby absorbing the risk of non-payment and safeguarding janitorial companies from financial loss.

Improving Operational Efficiency: It's essential for janitorial companies to focus on their core function - cleaning. The administrative overhead of handling accounts receivable and collections can divert attention from this. Factoring companies can undertake these administrative tasks, enabling the janitorial company to concentrate on providing superior services.

Credit Risk Management: Factoring companies conduct credit assessments of a janitorial company's clients. This is particularly beneficial for companies that do not have a dedicated credit department, enabling them to manage their credit risks more effectively.

Staffing Issues: During periods of accelerated growth or peak demand, janitorial companies may face difficulties in recruiting and retaining enough staff. The instant cash flow facilitated by factoring can assist in meeting payroll expenses promptly, thus ensuring staff satisfaction and retention.

In summary, factoring companies can substantially assist janitorial companies in addressing some of their most pressing issues, by offering financial support and contributing to improved operational efficiency, risk management, and business expansion.

Plastics Manufacturing company owners navigate a complex landscape fraught with challenges.

Factoring Company Guide

The First Stage: Client Application

 

Start by filling out a basic profile form we give you. This form asks for details like your company's name, address, what kind of business you run, and information about your customers.

 

You may also have to provide additional documents, such as an accounts receivable aging report or your customers' credit limits. This is because we, as the factoring company, want to understand the overall credit situation of your customers, beyond their history with your business.

 

In this initial stage, you'll also set up some fundamental financial terms with us. You need to decide how many invoices you want to factor each month (which indicates how much cash you need handy), what the advance rate and the discount rate will be, and how quickly we'll provide the advance to you.

 

Typically, the answers to these questions will depend on things like how financially stable your customers are, the expected monthly sales volume to be factored, the type of industry you're in, how long you've been in business, and the perceived riskiness of your customers. For example, factoring invoices for many high-risk clients will attract higher fees than a few invoices from slow-paying government agencies.

 

In the factoring world, volume matters a lot. The more (in terms of dollar amount) you factor, the better rates you'll get.

 

We'll use the profile you've completed to decide if your business is a good fit for factoring. We'll be weighing up the risks against the rewards, based on the details you've provided.

 

Once we approve your application, you can expect to negotiate the terms and conditions. This negotiation considers various aspects of the deal. For instance, a company factoring $10,000 can't expect as good a deal as another factoring $500,000.

 

During these negotiations, you'll get a clear idea of the cost to factor your accounts receivable. After reaching an agreement, the funding process starts. We'll do a background check on your customers' credit and any liens on your company. We'll also confirm that your invoice is valid before purchasing your receivables and giving you an advance.

Is Factoring For You

The Importance of Factoring

 

Completing a sale goes beyond just making the transaction. It's about collecting the money that is owed to you. Imagine being a part-time banker for your customers, providing them with interest-free financing.

 

Take a moment to examine your accounts receivable aging schedule. How many accounts are overdue by more than 30 days? By not receiving timely payment, you're effectively extending credit to these customers. This may not align with your original business intentions.

 

Consider this: If your customers approached a bank for the same amount of money, they would expect to pay a significant amount of interest. Yet, you're not earning any interest on the money you've extended to them.

 

What's more, you're missing out on the opportunity to utilize that capital while waiting for customers to settle their debts. The cost of not having this money readily available can be significant. Essentially, your customers are asking you to finance their business by granting them extended payment terms.

 

Have you thought about the expenses incurred due to missed opportunities when your funds are tied up in accounts receivable? It's time to take a closer look at the impact on your business and explore the benefits of factoring.

Credit Risk

Unleash Your Business Potential with Quick and Reliable Cash Flow

 

Expert Credit Risk Assessment Included at No Additional Cost

 

Accurately assessing credit risk is a critical aspect of our factoring business. Very few clients can perform this function as objectively as we do.

 

As part of our comprehensive service, we act as your dedicated credit department for both new and existing customers, providing you with a valuable advantage over handling these tasks in-house.

 

Imagine a scenario where a salesperson is pursuing a new account with significant potential for sales. In their eagerness to secure the business, they might overlook warning signs of credit difficulties and bypass your internal credit checks. While this approach may lead to a quick sale, it doesn't guarantee timely payment, and without payment, there is no true success.

 

With us, such situations are avoided. We make credit decisions based on a comprehensive understanding of the new customer's credit situation. We exercise caution by not purchasing invoices from customers with poor credit ratings, minimizing the risk of nonpayment. It's important to note that our involvement does not imply a tightening of credit that would negatively impact your business beyond your control.

 

Ultimately, the decision to engage with a new customer of questionable creditworthiness remains yours. (However, we reserve the right to say, "We warned you!")

 

While we may not purchase those invoices, you still have the freedom to extend credit terms as you see fit. You retain full control. Regardless of the decisions you make, our participation ensures that you have access to comprehensive, objective, and high-quality information to make informed credit decisions, surpassing your previous practices.

 

We conduct thorough research on new clients and diligently monitor the credit ratings of your existing customers. This stands in stark contrast to the common practice of neglecting routine credit updates on the established customer base, which can lead to costly mistakes.

 

Most businesses conduct credit checks only when it's too late and the problem has already escalated. In contrast, we promptly inform you of any changes in the credit status of your existing customers, allowing you to take proactive measures.

 

In addition to providing specific customer credit information, we offer detailed reports on your accounts receivables as a whole. Our comprehensive reports include accounting details, transactional insights, aging reports, and financial management reports. This data empowers you to analyze your sales performance, track account history, and make informed decisions.

 

With over 70 years of successful experience in managing cash flow and credit, we are eager to leverage our expertise for your benefit. Let us put our knowledge to work for you, helping you achieve your financial goals and unlocking your business's true potential. Experience the benefits of quick and reliable cash flow, supported by expert credit risk assessment at no additional cost.

 

How To Change Factoring Companies

Changing Your Invoice Financing Company

All the key things about switching invoice financing companies.

  • Are you considering a different invoice financing firm?
  • Unsatisfied with your present financier?
  • Thinking of quitting your current financier?
  • What should I know if I'm thinking of changing invoice financing companies?

What is a UCC and how does it relate to me changing invoice financing companies?

Invoice financing companies typically use something called a Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) filing to protect their claim to the invoices they've financed.

The UCC helps financiers, banks, and commercial lenders keep track of who's lending against what assets...

A UCC is somewhat like having a first mortgage on your business.

The Payoff Process

Whoever filed their UCC first usually has first rights to any payments from the financed invoices...

To switch invoice financing companies, the old company has to be paid off by the new one...

A 'payoff' or 'buyout' happens when the new invoice financing company pays the old one...

How is the Payoff Figure Calculated?

The payoff figure is typically calculated by taking the total amount...

How much does the buyout cost?

If you can submit new invoices to the new company to pay off the outstanding ones...

How long does a buyout take?

Switching companies usually takes a few days longer than the usual setup process...

What if my situation is not that simple?

In some cases, the old and new companies might be able to work out an agreement...

Questions you might have wished you'd asked before signing up with your current company:

  • Can I use multiple invoice financing companies at once? The answer is usually no, according to the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC).
  • How much notice do I need to give if I want to switch companies?

Your Factoring Handbook: This glossary sheds light on the intricate language of factoring, with examples to make the concepts crystal clear. A practical tool for entrepreneurs considering factoring options.

Factoring Industry Glossary: The Delaney Way

Factoring Industry Glossary: The Essentials

Here’s a no-nonsense guide to factoring lingo, stripped down to what really matters.

Accounts Receivable

It’s the money you’re waiting on. Picture a pallet maker looking at the horizon for a $30,000 check.

Advance Rate

How much cash a factoring firm hands over upfront. Say, a trucking outfit gets $970 right away on a $1,000 invoice.

Assignment

It's like passing the baton in a relay race – directing invoice payments to the factoring folks. A staffing agency might pass on chasing $40,000 itself.

Bad Debt

When hope meets reality – unpaid debts that you write off. Like when a store closes its doors, and you wave goodbye to that $5,000 they owed you.

Credit Check

Factoring firms doing a background check. They need to know if that electronics store is good for the money.

Debtor

Someone on your ledger in red. Think of a building contractor who hasn’t cleared its tab yet.

Discount Rate

The factoring fee. For instance, a logistics company might part with $600 on a $20,000 invoice.

Due Diligence

Factoring firms playing detective, making sure the numbers add up and the invoices make sense.

Factoring

Trading IOUs for quick cash. A transport company might offload $50,000 in invoices to keep the fuel tank full.

Factoring Agreement

The fine print of your deal. An auto shop might hammer out a deal over advance rates and fees.

Invoice

Your bill for services or products. Like when a furniture supplier sends a $15,000 charge to a retail store.

Invoice Discounting

Using unpaid bills as collateral for a loan. A tech firm might leverage $100,000 in invoices to keep innovating.

Notification

Telling your customers to direct their payments to the factoring company. “Don’t pay us, pay them,” says the print shop to its clients.

Receivables Aging

Sorting invoices by how long they've been gathering dust. Like a logistics firm realizing some bills have been ignored for over three months.

Recourse Factoring

The safety net where you buy back unpaid bills. Imagine a service company taking back a $10,000 invoice nobody paid.

Reserve

The slice of your invoice pie the factoring firm holds onto. They might keep 10% of $100,000 until they get the full amount.

Verification

Making sure an invoice is legit. The factoring firm double-checks the goods were received before they open their wallet.

Working Capital

The daily operational cash. For a budding tech firm, it’s the difference between what they own and owe – a cool $50,000.
