Factoring What Is Factoring? Factoring is a quick and flexible form of financing which substantially improves a company's cash flow. Many companies get into a cash bind by extending credit to their customers for 30 days while having to immediately fund certain costs, particularly payroll. This problem only gets worse as sales grow. With factoring, your invoices are used as collateral for a short-term loan which provides you immediate cash with which to meet these expenses.
There are several advantages to factoring. Maximizes the cash available to you Factoring provides more cash than traditional bank lines of credit.

Grow - You have the financial means for an almost limitless increase in sales.
Think Big - Go after the accounts and contracts you thought were "too big."
Factoring works well for many companies who have solid customers but only limited resources to front the necessary costs for 30 to 40 days until payment arrives.
Ask yourself:
Is your cash tied up in unpaid invoices?
Is payroll your largest expense?
Are you growing but increasingly short of cash?
Have you been in business only a short amount of time?
If you answer yes to any of these questions, factoring is a good financing solution for you to consider.
