I have a UCC Filing against my company. Can you help me?

Sure, if the UCC holds your invoices as collateral, we'll need the lender to agree to move it down or terminate it to facilitate factoring. Factoring requires having the UCC in the first position for your invoices. We can guide you through that process.

Back to the Top

Can I know what your fees and rates are up front?

Sure thing! Unlike most companies, we believe in being completely transparent about our fees and rates. Our factoring rates are highly competitive in the industry and depend on factors like the number of trucks you operate, the volume of business you want to factor, the type of loads, and any potential risks associated with your customers. We offer funding through ACH, wire transfer, and electronic invoice submission. Each of these options has a small fee attached, which we'll clearly outline upfront when we present our factoring proposal. We don't charge any setup fees like the others. Additionally, there are no monthly minimum fees or any other extra charges from us.

Back to the Top

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

There's no minimum commitment required! You have the flexibility to handpick the invoices you want our assistance with. Additionally, our agreements can start from a minimum of 90 days. Our factoring program is designed to be as convenient as carrying a credit card in your pocket, ready to be used whenever necessary. Don't hesitate to reach out to us and let's start the process today!

Back to the Top

I don’t want to factor all my loads. Do I have to give all my invoices to your company?

No problem, you have the choice to pick the accounts you want to factor. It's completely up to you to select which invoices you want to submit for funding whenever you need.

Back to the Top

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

Fill out a simple online form and provide the following: proof of insurance; a scanned copy of your driver's license; official documents like Articles of Incorporation or Fictitious Business Name Statement (DBA filing); a copy of your W-form; and maybe a few additional documents depending on the size of your business. Typically, you can expect to receive a proposal within 2hours, and the entire process, from start to funding, usually takes about to days.

Back to the Top

How am I evaluated in the approval process?

Ensure that your business is officially structured (Corporation, LLC, sole proprietor) with the proper authority (DOT or MC) and insurance. Additionally, assess the creditworthiness of your customers.

Back to the Top

Once approved, how do I get my money from your company?

You provide us with the necessary paperwork, including your invoice, bill of lading, load confirmation, and any relevant backup.

How much of my load will I receive up front, and how soon will I get the money?

So, Will Your Company Benefit from Factoring with us?

Unlike a bank loan, factoring has…

  • No principle or interest to pay over time
  • No debt to repay
  • Unlimited funding potential
  • Fast funding – no waiting months like at a bank
  • Approval is focused on the strength of your customers, not your credit
  • Startups are welcome

Uncomplicated Factoring Explanation

Imagine a world where cash flow concerns are a thing of the past. That's the reality factoring offers. It's not just a financial term; it's a practical solution for businesses strangled by slow-paying invoices. Factoring is like a key that unlocks the cash tied up in those invoices, giving your business the oxygen it needs to grow and thrive.

Here's how it works in plain English. You have invoices that haven't been paid yet. Instead of waiting, you sell them to a factoring company. They give you most of the invoice value upfront, in cash. Then, when your customer pays, the factoring company takes their fee and gives you the rest. It's straightforward, no-nonsense, and effective.

First, you get immediate cash, which means you can pay your bills, invest in new opportunities, and keep your business running smoothly. No more lying awake at night, wondering when you'll get paid. Second, it takes the headache of chasing payments off your plate. The factoring company handles that, freeing you up to focus on what you do best – growing your business.

If your business suffers from the gap between delivering a service and getting paid, factoring is for you. It's a lifesaver for industries like manufacturing, wholesale, and transportation, where invoice payment cycles are longer. Small businesses and startups struggling with cash flow will also find factoring invaluable.

Not all factoring companies are created equal. Look for one with transparent fees, a solid reputation, and a deep understanding of your business needs. The right factoring company doesn't just provide a service; they become a partner in your business's success.

Mastering the Market: A Factoring Fable

Change is the only constant, and in the trucking business, it comes faster than a downhill freight train. But with a robust cash flow, you're not just keeping pace; you're setting it. Competition? It’s just another word for those who haven’t discovered factoring.

As the market ebbs and flows, you're the lighthouse. Your prices aren’t just competitive; they're compelling. Your services aren’t just available; they're sought after.

Rules and Regulations: Better cash flow can allow for the hiring of experienced staff or consultants who are well-versed in the regulations of the trucking industry, ensuring compliance and saving the company a lot of hassle.

Cost of Fuel: If a trucking company has a healthier cash flow, they can better absorb fluctuations in fuel costs. It could also allow them to invest in more fuel-efficient vehicles or technology over time.

Traffic Jams: While cash flow may not directly resolve traffic issues, having enough funds could enable companies to invest in advanced GPS and route optimization systems that help drivers avoid congestion and improve efficiency.

Regulatory compliance is another area where better cash flow proves advantageous. It makes it easier for the company to invest in legal advice and compliance software, ensuring they abide by complex employment laws, tax regulations, and health and safety standards. This reduces the risk of incurring costly fines or legal complications.

Better cash flow also has a direct impact on client satisfaction. The company can allocate additional resources to enhance customer service, invest in tools for managing client relationships, and offer value-added services. These investments improve the overall client experience, leading to higher satisfaction and increased client retention.

Effective cost management becomes possible with improved cash flow, acting as a safety net for unforeseen expenses. The company can strategically invest in measures to reduce operating costs in the long run. For example, they could invest in automation tools to improve efficiency.

When it comes to matching candidates with clients, improved cash flow allows the company to invest in advanced recruitment tools and systems. This results in a more accurate and efficient matching process, leading to greater satisfaction among clients and candidates, ultimately contributing to a more profitable business.

Lastly, having funds available supports staying informed about market trends. By investing in market research and industry analysis tools, staffing companies can stay ahead of the competition and adjust their strategies accordingly.

In conclusion, better cash flow significantly enhances a staffing company's ability to address concerns, drive growth, and strengthen its competitive position in the market.

Addressing Driver Shortage: Better cash flow enables companies to offer competitive salaries, benefits, and incentives to attract and retain skilled drivers, which is especially important due to the shortage of drivers in the industry.

Improving Logistics and Planning: Cash flow allows companies to invest in advanced systems for better logistics and planning, leading to improved efficiency and higher customer satisfaction.

Embracing Technology: Implementing new technology often requires an upfront investment, but it can result in long-term savings and increased efficiency. Sufficient cash flow supports these investments.

Managing Economic Fluctuations: During economic downturns, having a healthy cash flow acts as a buffer, allowing companies to adjust their strategies and operations without making desperate moves.

In summary, a strong cash flow provides hot shot trucking companies with financial stability and flexibility. It helps them handle expenses, overcome challenges, invest in growth opportunities, and navigate economic ups and downs more effectively.

Jack's Journey: Triumph in Trucking

Enter the world of Jack, a rugged, no-nonsense owner of a hot shot trucking company. His company, a titan in the industry, prided itself on its swift and reliable deliveries. But the trucking industry is no smooth ride, and Jack, always a pillar of strength, found himself grappling with an onslaught of obstacles that began to dent his stoic exterior.

The Challenges

  1. Regulatory Compliance: With increasing permit and license fees, compliance tasks, and necessary safety equipment upgrades, Jack's cash flow was drying up, threatening his company's very existence.
  2. Unpredictable Loads: Jack likened dwindling demand to sailing in stormy weather, bracing for the next big wave that could capsize his ship.
  3. Volatile Fuel Costs: This erratic expense wreaked havoc on Jack's budgeting but was unavoidable as the life-force of his operations.
  4. Equipment Costs: Crucial for success, yet draining his strained resources.
  5. Insurance Costs: A constant weight, with mandatory payments becoming a mountainous task.
  6. Economic Fluctuations: Threatening to push financial stability over the edge.

Jack's stretched resources prevented him from investing in the future through marketing, staff training, advanced logistics planning, or technology adoption. He was always firefighting, with no room to focus on gaining a competitive edge or addressing the industry-wide driver shortage.

But the relief didn't stop there. With newfound financial stability, Jack could plan for his company's future. He invested in marketing, staff training, and advanced logistics and planning systems. He even began to attract and retain more drivers, offering competitive salaries and benefits. His company was not only surviving but flourishing, all thanks to the helping hand from the factoring company.

Success

In the end, what seemed like a surging tide of insurmountable challenges was transformed into a manageable stream, all thanks to Lisa and the factoring company. Jack's journey is testament to the fact that with a steady cash flow supporting a hot shot trucking company, it's not just about making ends meet; it's about growth, prosperity, and the sweet taste of success.

Navigating the Financial Challenges in

Running a successful janitorial business comes with its own unique set of challenges. Below are some of the key concerns these businesses face and how factoring companies can help solve these problems:

Liquidity Concerns: Managing cash flow is a top concern for janitorial companies, as they often have to wait 30 to 90 days for payments after providing their services. Factoring companies can ease this concern by buying these unpaid invoices, immediately providing the janitorial companies with the cash they need to operate, hence enhancing their liquidity and continuity of operations.

Growth and Scaling Up: Expansion is a common goal among janitorial companies, requiring considerable investment in manpower, equipment, and sometimes, training. By advancing cash against invoices, a factoring company can offer the necessary funds to support this growth, enabling janitorial businesses to take on new opportunities without the wait for invoice payments.

Managing Debts: Avoiding extra debts is a common worry for many businesses. Factoring provides a way to increase working capital without taking on additional debt, as it involves a transaction in which the company sells its receivables at a discount.

Dealing with Late Payments and Bad Debts: Handling late payments or defaults is another challenge. Factoring companies typically manage the collection process, freeing janitorial companies from the burden of chasing late payments. In some cases, factoring companies offer non-recourse factoring, assuming the risk of non-payment and safeguarding the janitorial businesses from potential bad debts.

Improving Operational Efficiency: Janitorial companies must focus their energy on their primary business - cleaning. Administrative tasks such as managing accounts receivable and collections can detract from this. Factoring companies can help optimize these processes, enabling the janitorial businesses to focus on delivering excellent service.

Credit Risk Management: Factoring companies conduct credit checks on a janitorial company's clients. This can be beneficial for businesses without a dedicated credit department, allowing them to better manage credit risks associated with their clients.

Staffing Challenges: During times of growth or peak demand, janitorial companies may struggle to recruit and retain enough staff. The immediate cash flow provided by factoring can assist in meeting payroll costs promptly, ensuring employee satisfaction and retention.

In conclusion, factoring companies can help address many of the significant challenges janitorial companies face. They provide financial support and can also improve operational efficiency, manage risk, and promote business growth.

Factoring Company Guide

Starting Point: The Client Application

First, you'll fill out a basic client profile form we'll give you. This will ask for straightforward information such as your company's name, location, business type, and some details about your clients.

Additionally, you might have to provide documents like an accounts receivable aging report or details on your clients' credit limits. Keep in mind, we (the factor) are trying to determine how creditworthy your clients are, not just based on their history with you but their overall credit status.

At this stage, we'll also talk about some financial arrangements. Questions like, how many invoices do you want to factor each month (or how much cash you need immediately)? What will be the advance rate and the discount rate? And, how soon can we give you the advance?

Typically, the answers to these questions depend on the financial health of your clients and the expected monthly sales to be factored. Other aspects like your industry, the duration of your business, and the risk profile of your clients also play a part. For example, a long list of high-risk clients would mean higher factoring fees than a list of slow-paying government agencies.

In the factoring world, volume is key. The more invoices you factor (the higher your volume), the better rates you will get.

We'll use the client profile you provide to see if your business fits well with factoring. Basically, we're assessing the risks and rewards based on the information you've shared.

Once we approve, you'll then negotiate terms and conditions. This process considers various aspects of the deal. For example, factoring $10,000 won't get you as good a deal as a company factoring $500,000.

During negotiations, you'll fully understand the cost of factoring your accounts receivable. Once an agreement is reached, the funding process starts. We'll conduct due diligence by researching your clients' credit and any liens against your company. We also make sure your invoice is genuine before purchasing your receivables and advancing cash to you.

Is Factoring For You

The Importance of Factoring

"Without payment, a sale is just a promise."

Ask yourself, are you inadvertently funding your customers’ businesses? Take a close look at your accounts receivable. Those overdue payments? They're essentially interest-free loans you're giving to your customers. This diverges from your core business goals, doesn't it?

Imagine if your customers were borrowing from a bank. They would certainly be paying interest. Meanwhile, you're not earning any interest, and more importantly, you're missing out on using that capital to grow your own business. What's the real cost of having your money tied up in receivables?

It's not just about the interest you're losing; it's the growth opportunities you're missing while your funds are locked in accounts receivable. Are you sure you want to be in the business of financing your customers?

p>Imagine if your customers got the same amount of money from a bank. They'd be paying significant interest. But here you are, not earning any interest and, worse, losing the chance to invest that money back into your business. What could you be achieving with that capital right now?

Factoring History

Factoring: Fueling Business Growth and Success

Welcome to the world of factoring, where businesses find the fuel they need to grow and succeed. Whether you're a business owner, an aspiring entrepreneur, or seeking financial solutions for your employer, factoring can be a game-changer in helping you achieve your goals.

Interestingly, factoring often goes unnoticed and remains unfamiliar to many in the business world, yet it serves as the backbone for numerous successful enterprises. Year after year, it unlocks billions of dollars, enabling thousands of businesses to flourish and make their mark.

But what exactly is factoring? It's a powerful financial tool that involves purchasing accounts receivable (invoices) from businesses at a discounted rate. In today's competitive landscape, offering credit terms to customers is a common practice to attract and retain business. However, this can create cash flow challenges, especially for small or struggling businesses that rely on prompt payments.

Factoring has a rich history that spans thousands of years. Its roots can be traced back to ancient civilizations, where innovative thinkers recognized the value of unlocking funds tied up in unpaid invoices. Over time, this financial practice evolved and adapted to meet the changing needs of businesses.

Today, factoring provides a lifeline to businesses across various industries. By leveraging factoring, companies can gain immediate access to the cash they need to cover operational expenses, invest in growth initiatives, and seize new opportunities.

In the past, factoring was crucial to industries like textiles and garments, where cash flow was vital for success. However, its benefits are not limited to specific sectors. As the business landscape evolved, so did factoring. It expanded its reach to encompass a wide range of businesses, helping them overcome financial hurdles and thrive.

Factors, the key players in factoring, come in different forms. Some operate within large financial institutions, while others are independent entities focused solely on providing factoring services. This diversity ensures that businesses of all sizes and types can find a factor that aligns with their unique needs and objectives.

Today's factors go beyond simply advancing funds against invoices. They provide valuable insights into customer creditworthiness, manage collections, and mitigate risks associated with unpaid invoices. This comprehensive approach allows businesses to focus on their core operations while leaving the financial intricacies to the experts.

As a business owner or professional, it's essential to explore the potential of factoring. It offers a viable alternative to traditional bank financing and empowers businesses to fuel their growth and success. With factoring, you can unlock the capital tied up in your accounts receivable, strengthen your cash flow, and embrace new opportunities that drive your business forward.

How To Change Factoring Companies

How to Change Invoice Factoring Companies

All you need to learn about switching your invoice factoring service.

Looking for a different invoice factoring service? Not happy with your current one? Thinking about saying goodbye to your current factoring service? What should you know before you switch invoice factoring services?

Here's what you need to know and more:

What's a UCC and why does it matter if I want to change factoring services?

Usually, an invoice factoring service will file a Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) to ensure their claim on the invoices they fund is priority. This is standard. The UCC helps invoice factoring services, banks, and commercial lenders keep track of who has a claim on which assets. Because the invoices you collect and pay change every day, factoring services need to file a 'blanket' UCC to claim all your receivables. The UCC simply warns other lenders that a Security Agreement exists between your business and the invoice factoring service. Your factoring deal details, such as the rates and which accounts are factored, are explained in the Security Agreement, which isn't public. A UCC is kind of like a first mortgage on your business.

The Process of Buyout

The lender with the earliest dated UCC filing is said to have first dibs on the pledged assets. To switch factoring services, the new service must pay off the old one. A 'buyout' is when the new factoring service pays off the old one with the money from your first funding with them. The Buyout Agreement outlines the transition process and is a three-party agreement signed by the old factoring service, the new factoring service, and your business.

How the Buyout Amount is Calculated:

Generally, the buyout amount is calculated by taking the total outstanding Gross Receivables, subtracting any reserves, and then adding in fees due to the old factoring service. Understanding the buyout amount is important because once you authorize that amount and the old service is paid off, you are only dealing with the new service.

What is the cost of the buyout?

If you can provide brand new invoices to the new factoring service, which they can use to pay off the outstanding invoices at your old service, then there would be no extra cost for you to make the change. But in most cases, companies need to resubmit at least a portion of invoices already factored with the old service to the new service. Depending on the size of the transaction, some factoring services offer reduced fees on invoices part of a buyout.

How long does a buyout take?

When you're changing factoring services, expect the first funding to take a two to three more days than the normal setup process. By aligning yourself with a factoring service familiar with the buyout process they can guide you through timing to minimize any delays in your funding as a result of the transition.

What if my situation is more complicated?

Although it is not common practice, it's possible that the old and the new factoring services can work together via an Intercreditor or Subordination Agreement until the old service is paid off.

Questions You Should Have Asked Your Current Factoring Company
  • How many factoring companies can I use at one time? (You can only use one)
  • What's the process and penalty for leaving without giving notice?
  • Do you use a bank lockbox to process my customer payments?
  • How long do you keep my original invoices before sending them to my customers?
  • Who will be my contact at your company? Is it one person or multiple?
  • Do I need to pay for postage for mailing my invoices?
  • Do you charge me for credit checks on new customers?
  • Do you hold my invoices in batches and charge fees on all invoices in a batch until the last one is collected?
  • Do you start holding reserves once a customer's invoice is 60 days old, even though I have a 90-day recourse period?

Understanding these factors will help you make a better decision when choosing a new factoring company and avoiding unnecessary costs or complications in the future.

Factoring Glossary: Because Who Likes Confusion?

Welcome to the world of factoring, where things sound more complicated than they are. Let's break down the jargon into something resembling English.

Accounts Receivable

Money others owe you. Imagine a pallet maker staring at the horizon, waiting for $30,000 from local buyers.

Advance Rate

It's what you get upfront. Think: A trucker gets $970 now against a $1,000 invoice. Not bad for a day's work.

Assignment

Passing the invoice chasing baton to the factoring pros. A staffing firm, for instance, waves goodbye to the hassle of collecting $40,000.

Bad Debt

When hope meets bankruptcy. A retailer goes bust, and there goes your $5,000. Ouch!

Credit Check

The factoring firm's version of 'trust but verify'. Will that electronics retailer really pay up?

Debtor

The one who owes you money. Like a construction company with a tab at the materials supplier.

Discount Rate

The price of instant money. A logistics firm parts with $600 on a $20,000 invoice. Quick cash isn't free.

Due Diligence

The factoring firm playing detective on your invoices. They need to make sure everything's kosher.

Factoring

Selling your IOUs for instant cash. A transportation company turns invoices into a pile of money.

Factoring Agreement

Your deal with the factoring company. All about rates, fees, and the fine print.

Invoice

Your bill for services or goods. Like a $15,000 'please pay me' note to a retail chain.

Invoice Discounting

Using unpaid bills as leverage for a loan. A software firm's shortcut to quick cash.

Notification

Telling your customers to pay the factor, not you. It's redirecting the money flow.

Receivables Aging

A look at which invoices are growing old and gray. When bills overstay their welcome.

Recourse Factoring

When unpaid invoices boomerang back to you. It's like a game of hot potato with debt.

Reserve

The factoring firm's safety net. They keep a slice until everything's paid up.

Verification

Factoring firm's reality check. Making sure your invoice isn't a fairy tale.

Working Capital

Your financial playground. Assets minus liabilities equals how much you can play with.
