3 Additional Tips to Keep Your Cash Flow Pumping
Don’t be late with your invoicing. The sooner your client receives an invoice, the sooner they can be expected to pay it. Also, be regular and be punctual. Your clients will learn when to expect incoming invoices and can prepare to pay them.
When you use contractors, encourage them to submit all timesheets and expenses on time. In this age of technology, there’s really no excuse for them to be late. In any case, with Bullhorn reminders, you’ll know who to chase in an electronic heartbeat.
It’s a good idea to have regular financial meetings with all of your employees. Show them where the company is heading in real terms, and state all targets openly and clearly. This will help fuel competition and performance. Additionally, give clients an incentive to pay without delay. Perhaps consider offering a small discount on invoices paid before 28 days. Financial heads love saving money!
