This credit policy webinar will help participant create an effective trade credit policy that will maximize cash flow from the receivables while maximizing sales and minimizing bad debt expense.

Why Should You Attend:

When a small/new business grows in revenue, a strong credit policy is required to ensure profits and cash flow grow as well. This policy dictates how one of the company’s largest assets, its trade accounts receivable, will be successfully managed to align with the sales goals of an organization.

Too many companies simply rely only on the experience of its credit department personnel to make individual credit decisions and manage the day-to-day receivables management process. This strategy doesn’t generally consider the company’s overall sales and marketing strategies nor does it rely on a specific, well thought out policy to drive risk decisions. This webinar helps the participant create an effective trade credit policy that will maximize cash flow from the receivables while maximizing sales and minimizing bad debt expense.

This practical webinar shows companies how to mesh their sales strategies with their credit strategies. We will detail the issues surrounding the use of credit terms in a business, the needed processes to qualify customers for unsecured credit, how exceptions will be managed, and how risk will be monitored and adjusted with the policy.

At the end of this webinar, the speaker will handle specific questions you may have regarding sell on credit to high risk commercial customers.
