We take care of collecting the payment from your customers, freeing up your time to focus on managing other essential aspects of your trucking business.

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.

Back to the Top

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

Factoring isn’t just about getting quick cash; it’s about keeping your business afloat without selling a kidney. It’s like having a financial parachute when you’re free-falling from the cliff of ‘unpaid invoices’. It means you’ve got the cash to pay bills, invest in new stuff, and maybe even sleep at night. Plus, you’re offloading the headache of chasing payments to someone else. Sweet deal, right?

 

So, who really needs factoring? If you’re in a business where cash flow is more unpredictable than a weather forecast, factoring could be your knight in shining armor. It's a lifesaver for industries like manufacturing, wholesale, and transportation – basically, any business where the money seems to take its sweet time coming in.

Ensuring a healthy cash flow is crucial for staffing companies to effectively manage their concerns. Cash flow refers to the movement of money in and out of a business. When a staffing company has a strong cash flow, it means they have immediate access to funds for their daily needs. This brings several benefits to the concerns we've discussed.

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.

Workforce management: With increased cash on hand, companies can invest in training, retention, and recruitment strategies to attract and retain a skilled workforce. This is vital for success in the industry.

Geopolitical risks: Companies with stronger cash flow are better positioned to manage geopolitical uncertainties, as they possess the financial resources to navigate sudden operational changes or unexpected costs.

Access to resources: Improved cash flow ensures that companies have the necessary funds to secure essential equipment and supplies for their operations.

Factoring For Hot Shot Trucking Companies

Better cash flow can help mitigate several of the challenges faced by hot shot trucking companies. Here's how:

Regulatory Compliance: Compliance with various regulations often involves financial expenditures, such as fees for permits and licenses, compliance-related administrative tasks, and equipment upgrades for safety purposes. Having good cash flow ensures that these expenses can be met promptly without affecting the operation of the business.

Finding Consistent Loads: A healthy cash flow can help hot shot trucking companies withstand periods of lower demand. It can provide the financial cushion needed to navigate through lean periods until more loads become available.

Fuel Costs: Fuel is a significant and often unpredictable expense for any trucking company. Having a strong cash flow can help a company absorb fluctuations in fuel prices without compromising other areas of the business.

Equipment Costs and Maintenance: Adequate cash flow is crucial for maintaining and replacing equipment when necessary. This includes both scheduled maintenance costs and unexpected repairs.

Insurance Costs: Insurance is a mandatory expense that can represent a significant portion of a hot shot trucking company's budget. Good cash flow ensures that insurance premiums can be paid on time, avoiding penalties and the risk of losing coverage.

Competition: With solid cash flow, a company can invest in areas that enhance competitiveness, such as marketing to attract more clients, technology to improve efficiency, and staff training to provide superior service.

Driver Shortage: Better cash flow can help attract and retain drivers. Companies can offer competitive salaries, benefits, and incentives to retain good drivers, which is particularly important given the industry-wide driver shortage.

Logistics and Planning: Cash flow can help in investing in advanced logistics and planning systems, helping to improve efficiency and customer satisfaction.

Technology Adoption: Implementing new technology often requires an upfront investment, but it can lead to longer-term savings and efficiency. Adequate cash flow can support these investments.

Economic Fluctuations: In periods of economic downturn, having a healthy cash flow can provide a buffer to help the business weather the storm. It gives the company time to adjust its strategies and operations without making desperate moves.

In summary, a strong cash flow provides a hot shot trucking company with financial stability and flexibility. This allows the company to manage routine expenses, navigate unexpected challenges, invest in growth opportunities, and better absorb the impacts of wider economic fluctuations.

The Challenges

Imagine the world of Joe, a seasoned pro in the hot shot trucking business. His company, known for its timely and efficient deliveries, stood as a beacon in the industry. Yet, the rough and tumble of the trucking industry were starting to leave a mark on even a stalwart like Joe. He found himself in the middle of a tempest, battling a sea of challenges that seemed to grow with each passing day.

Regulatory Compliance

Regulatory compliance was the first storm he faced. Joe was an advocate for the right way of doing things, but the mounting fees for permits, licenses, and necessary safety upgrades were gnawing at his cash reserves. The expenses were becoming an ever-looming threat to his company's operations.

Unpredictable Demands

The unpredictability of securing consistent loads was another stormy wave. During periods of low demand, his financial cushion seemed to shrink, putting his company at risk. It was like being in the desert, waiting anxiously for the next rain.

Fluctuating Fuel Costs

Next came the tempest of fluctuating fuel costs. The daily changing prices were messing with his budgeting, but he couldn't cut corners here - fuel was the artery of his operations.

Equipment and Maintenance

Equipment costs and maintenance, another raging storm, were unavoidable for Joe. He knew the value of well-maintained equipment in his company's success. However, the costs linked with routine maintenance and sudden repairs were another drain on his finances.

Insurance Costs

Insurance costs were another persistent downpour. This compulsory expense consumed a significant portion of his budget. With the cash flow being so constricted, keeping up with the insurance premiums was becoming a struggle.

Economic Fluctuations

All these trials left Joe fire-fighting, with no time or resources to focus on improving his competitive edge or tackling the industry-wide driver shortage. His strained resources were preventing him from investing in marketing, staff training, advanced logistics planning, or adopting new technology. The economic fluctuations were the final storm cloud, threatening to engulf his company's financial stability.

The Solution: Factoring

That's when Sarah from a factoring company stepped into Joe's life. Sarah, with her calm demeanor and assured approach, felt like a ray of sunshine in Joe's stormy world. She explained how factoring could be the lifeboat Joe needed in his sea of troubles.

Guided by Sarah, Joe started factoring his invoices. The immediate cash flow provided by factoring was a godsend. He was now able to deal with the regulatory compliance costs without straining his resources. The financial buffer factoring offered helped him sail through lean periods without fear of capsizing.

With a steady cash flow, Joe could manage volatile fuel costs, and even the unforeseen equipment maintenance costs didn't seem so frightening anymore. He could now make insurance premium payments on time, putting an end to one more stressor. Joe could finally breathe easier.

But that was not all. With a secure financial base, Joe was able to strategize for the future. He started investing in marketing, improving his staff's skills, and even started exploring advanced logistics and planning systems. The factoring company's flexible offerings also enabled him to weather the impacts of economic fluctuations, allowing him to adjust his strategies without resorting to panic.

The Success

The transformation was extraordinary. From a man burdened with financial woes, Joe emerged lighter, with a sparkle in his eyes and a spring in his step. He even began attracting and retaining more drivers, thanks to his ability to offer competitive salaries and benefits. His company was now not just surviving, but thriving, all thanks to the assistance provided by the factoring company.

Conclusion

In the end, what seemed like a never-ending deluge of challenges was transformed into a manageable stream, all thanks to Sarah and her factoring company.

Navigating the Financial Challenges in

Just like any other enterprises, janitorial firms face various challenges that need tackling for them to thrive. Here are some common concerns these companies grapple with and how a factoring company can prove beneficial:

Liquidity Concerns: Cash flow maintenance is a significant concern for janitorial firms, given that their contractual agreements often involve payment terms that extend 30 to 90 days post-service. By buying the outstanding invoices, factoring companies can provide immediate cash to the janitorial firm, thereby enhancing liquidity and ensuring smooth operations.

Growth and Expansion Plans: To grow and expand their footprint, janitorial firms require considerable investment in manpower, equipment, and sometimes, training. Factoring companies can support this growth by providing necessary funds in the form of cash advances against invoices, thus enabling the janitorial firm to exploit new business opportunities without waiting for clients to clear their invoices.

Debt Worries: The burden of loans or additional debt is a universal business concern. Factoring presents a unique solution to enhance working capital without accruing debt, as it involves a transaction where the firm sells its receivables at a discount.

Issues with Late Payments and Defaults: Managing late payments or potential defaults is another significant worry. Factoring companies typically handle the collection process, thereby saving janitorial businesses from the inconvenience of pursuing late payments. Certain factoring companies also offer non-recourse factoring where they bear the risk of non-payment, safeguarding janitorial companies from potential bad debts.

Operational Efficiency: Janitorial companies need to devote their time and resources to their primary business - cleaning. Administrative tasks, such as managing accounts receivable and collections, can detract from this focus. Factoring companies can take over these tasks, allowing the janitorial firm to focus on delivering high-quality services.

Credit Management: Factoring companies provide a valuable service of conducting credit checks on a janitorial company's clients, especially useful for companies that lack a dedicated credit department. This service enables janitorial companies to manage their credit risks more effectively.

Staffing Woes: During periods of business growth or peak demand, janitorial companies might face difficulty in hiring and retaining sufficient staff. The immediate cash flow offered by factoring can help them meet payroll expenses promptly, ensuring staff satisfaction and reducing turnover.

In a nutshell, factoring companies can significantly contribute to addressing janitorial companies' major concerns by providing financial support and enhancing operational efficiency, risk management, and business growth.

The Impact of Factoring on Small Business Growth

Factoring has a significant impact on the growth and success of small businesses. Let's explore the ways in which factoring contributes to their growth:

Access to Immediate Working Capital: Small businesses often face challenges in accessing sufficient working capital, which can hinder their growth potential. Factoring allows small businesses to convert their accounts receivable into immediate cash. This infusion of working capital provides the necessary funds to cover operational expenses, invest in growth initiatives, and seize new business opportunities.

Improved Cash Flow Management: Cash flow management is vital for the smooth operation and growth of small businesses. Factoring eliminates the waiting period for customer payments, ensuring a consistent and predictable cash flow. This enables small businesses to meet financial obligations, pay suppliers on time, and take advantage of early payment discounts, thereby improving their financial position.

Enhanced Creditworthiness: Factoring can positively impact a small business's creditworthiness. By ensuring timely payments to suppliers and creditors, small businesses can build a positive payment history. This strengthens their credit profile, making it easier to secure favorable terms with suppliers, obtain traditional financing options, and establish credibility in the marketplace.

Opportunity for Business Expansion: With improved cash flow and access to working capital, small businesses can pursue growth initiatives and expand their operations. Whether it's investing in marketing campaigns, launching new product lines, or expanding into new markets, factoring provides the financial resources needed to seize growth opportunities.

Outsourced Accounts Receivable Management: Factoring companies often handle accounts receivable management, including credit checks, invoicing, and collections. This relieves small businesses of administrative tasks, allowing them to focus on core operations, customer relationships, and strategic decision-making. By outsourcing these functions, small businesses can operate more efficiently and effectively.

Risk Mitigation: Factoring companies assume the credit risk associated with the purchased invoices. This mitigates the risk of non-payment or customer insolvency for small businesses. The factoring company conducts credit assessments on customers, providing valuable insights into their creditworthiness. This allows small businesses to make informed decisions regarding credit extensions and minimize the risk of bad debts.

Scalability: Factoring is a scalable financing solution that grows with the business. As sales and invoicing volumes increase, the amount of funding available through factoring also increases. This scalability provides small businesses with the flexibility to access the necessary capital to support their expanding operations and take advantage of market opportunities.

In summary, factoring provides small businesses with immediate working capital, improved cash flow management, enhanced creditworthiness, opportunities for expansion, outsourced accounts receivable management, risk mitigation, and scalability. Leveraging factoring can be a catalyst for small business growth, enabling them to thrive in a competitive marketplace and achieve their long-term objectives.

Factoring History

Factoring History

Welcome to the world of factoring, the strategic masterstroke behind many of America's business triumphs. If you're in the business realm, this is a revelation you can't afford to miss.

Despite its pivotal role in freeing up billions for businesses, factoring remains one of the best-kept secrets, rarely touched upon in business education. Yet, it's a cornerstone in the architecture of modern business success.

What exactly is factoring? Picture a financial strategy that's as old as civilization itself, yet as relevant today as ever. Born in ancient Mesopotamia, factoring is the art of transforming invoices into immediate capital.

Through history, from the ancient Romans to the American Revolution, factoring has been the silent ally of commerce. It offered a faster, more practical financial solution than traditional banks, fueling growth and innovation.

In today's business landscape, factoring is more than a financial option; it's a strategic tool. Diverse and dynamic, it's the unsung hero that continues to empower businesses, turning receivables into billions in growth and profitability.

Credit Risk

Quick Cash Advantage: Unlock Expert Credit Risk Assessment at No Extra Cost!

Precisely evaluating credit risk is a vital aspect of our factoring business. Very few, if any, clients can perform this task as objectively as we can.

At no additional fee, we serve as your dedicated credit department for both new and existing customers. This gives you a significant advantage over managing these functions internally.

Imagine a scenario where a salesperson is pursuing a new account with the potential for substantial purchases. Their focus on winning the business may cause them to overlook warning signs related to credit difficulties. They might even bypass your internal credit checks to expedite the process. While this could secure the sale, it won't guarantee payment, and without payment, there is no sale.

Rest assured, this won't happen with us. We make credit decisions based on a comprehensive understanding of the new customer's credit situation. We won't purchase the invoices of customers with poor credit ratings, minimizing the risk of nonpayment. However, please don't consider our involvement as a tightening of credit to the extent that it negatively impacts your business beyond your control.

The ultimate decision to do business with a new customer of questionable creditworthiness remains yours. (Nevertheless, we reserve the right to say, ""I told you so!"")

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

We thoroughly research new clients and, equally importantly, regularly monitor the credit ratings of your existing customers. This contrasts with the rare routine credit updates on the established customer base in many businesses. Neglecting this can be a grave mistake.

Typically, businesses only conduct a credit check when it's too late, and the problem has already spiraled out of control. On the other hand, we promptly inform you of any changes in the credit status of your existing customers.

In addition to providing specific customer credit information, you'll also enjoy the benefits of comprehensive, detailed reports on your accounts receivables as a whole. As part of our process, you'll receive accounting details, transactional insights, aging reports, and financial management reports. This data empowers you to incorporate it into your sales tracking, account history, and in-depth analysis.

With over 70 years of successful experience in cash flow and credit management, we are eager to leverage our expertise for your benefit. Let us apply our knowledge to help you achieve your financial goals and unlock the full potential of your business.

How To Change Factoring Companies

Changing Your Invoice Finance Provider

Are you thinking of changing your invoice finance provider? This guide is designed to help you navigate the process. Learn about UCCs, understand the transition process, and discover the key questions to ask before selecting a new financial partner.

Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) Explained

A UCC filing by your finance company helps protect their interests in your invoices. This legal tool:

  • Keeps track of asset rights.
  • Alerts other lenders to existing financial agreements.
  • Secures the financier's priority claim on your invoices, similar to mortgage or vehicle title rights.

Transitioning Between Providers

Switching to a new provider is akin to refinancing a mortgage. The new company will settle any balance with your old provider, a process governed by a mutually agreed-upon Buyout Agreement.

Calculating the Buyout Amount

The buyout amount is typically calculated as your total unpaid invoices minus reserves, plus any fees from your previous financier. Ensure you get a full breakdown to understand all associated costs, including any early termination fees.

Cost Implications of a Buyout

Transitioning can be cost-effective, particularly if you use new invoices with your new financier. However, be aware that reusing previously financed invoices might result in double fees. Timely communication with your old provider is key to avoiding additional charges.

Time Considerations

Changing providers may add additional time to the usual process, due to the complexities of buyout calculations. Partnering with an experienced financier can streamline this process.

Complex Scenarios

In some situations, rights to your invoices may be shared between your old and new financiers during the transition period, though this is not typically the case.

Questions to Ponder Before Committing

  • Is using multiple invoice finance companies at the same time feasible?
  • What are the notice periods and penalties for changing providers?
  • What is the payment processing timeframe with the new provider?
  • Who will be your main contacts at the finance company?
  • Are there postage costs for mailing invoices?
  • What additional fees, such as for credit checks or new customer setups, are involved?
  • When does the financier begin holding reserves?
