Invoices To Finance ? Here’s The Best Method Of Factoring Financing In Canada For Accounts Receivable !
We know why you are here. You've got them; you just don't know what to do with them. We're of course talking about invoices to finance, and what we think is the best method of factoring financing for your accounts receivable.
There isn't a day these days when we don't meet a client like you who isn't challenged by working capital and cash flow challenges.
Let's examine the basics of factoring financing in Canada, with exactly what you need to know, which is simply how does it work and whats the best type of receivable financing arrangement. Oh, and by the way, we'll share some tips on what to look for in that ' perfect' arrangement we are referring to,
So let's weigh in on our subject, which is that you have got accounts receivable, and they are growing , and as everyone is experiencing these days, your clients , as great as they are, are slow to pay. And we won't forget that terrible thing known as the bulge, which is that seasonal or occasional situations when large sales opportunities loom and you need financing to cover those off.
Thousand of Canadian companies can't all be wrong, so there must be something to factoring financing of those invoices, right? We're going one step better and recommending that you investigate confidential invoice financing, which is simply a factor arrangement that has you in control of the show, not the finance firm. And controlling your own destiny is what it is all about.
Accounts receivable financing is simply the sale of your invoices to your finance partner firm - you get the cash immediately. It works best when you have some decent gross margins to absorb the 1-2.5% financing cost that comes along with this type of financing. The cost is what most of our clients are worried about , and they are somewhat more happier when we show them how they have the ability to cut that cost in half using that new found cash flow to execute on strategies such as taking discounts with their suppliers and buying in bulk at better prices .
So here comes that recommended secret we are talking about. We call it C I D, which stands for confidential invoice discounting. Here's where you have the advantage over your competitors. 99% of all factor financing in Canada revolves around your factor firm partner billing and collecting your invoices, with notice to your customer. Our offering eliminates that, you bill and collect your own invoices, when you want, when you need the cash. So you have the same pricing as your competitors, but you are on up on how the facility works.
Things we look out for when we originate these financings are areas such as the total all in rate of your new financing facility. Other somewhat technical issues are the advance rate, of what is advanced against the full amount of your invoices. Some other key issues to look for are the miscellaneous admin fees, the exact calculation your new financing partner uses for their rate, and your ability to terminate the arrangement at no cost.
Some of these latter issues we mentioned can save you thousands and tens of thousands of dollars of a year, so we recommend you use the service of a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor to ensure you have the best method of factoring financing for your firm.
