By Courtney: Working from home has been a huge adjustment, not only for the entire company but especially the customer service department. Back when we were in the office we were known as “the favorite row”. When you walked down the customer service isle you could feel the great energy, always joking around & laughing.

The three business credit reporting companies are Dun & Bradstreet, Equifax and Experian. Each has its own way of gathering data and scoring your business, but they all look for information from investors, lenders, banks, and credit card issuers.

Invoice factoring can be an appealing way for businesses with outstanding accounts receivables to raise needed cash quickly. Factoring companies will purchase blocks of a business’s unpaid invoices, fronting between 85 and 90% of their total value. The business is then charged a fee every week until the last invoice is paid by the customer, at which point the factoring company will release the remaining 10 to 15%.

Collecting outstanding debt isn’t an easy process. If a consumer has allowed their obligations to go into delinquency they’re usually either experiencing significant financial difficulty, they’re grossly irresponsible, or they have no intention of paying. None of these situations are amenable to fast debt recovery. Companies will generally try to collect on their outstanding accounts internally before passing their most egregious cases on to an external debt collection agency.
