Sleep Insurance
Have you ever wakened in the middle of the night worrying about an existing outstanding receivable? The customer might say they are going to pay but have yet to make good on their promise. Might you be second guessing that second load of fuel you sold them when they haven’t paid for their first? Has your customer’s open balance gotten so high that it could now truly hurt your cashflow if they don’t pay?
Many companies experience this sleeplessness when they don’t have to. They don’t think twice when insuring their trucks, buildings, equipment, etc; but A/R (which can make up to 40% of assets) is most commonly uninsured. You’re more likely to file a claim on your A/R than the fire insurance of your building. For a fraction of a penny per gallon, it makes too much sense to not explore how credit insurance can help your company.
CREDIT INSURANCE.
Credit insurance is a cost-effective sales tool that allows you to insure your receivables so you can safely sell more to your existing customers, go after new customers that may have been a credit risk in the past, and expand into new markets that you originally perceived to be too risky. Credit insurance offers solutions for safe and profitable growth:
- Grow sales safely, domestically and abroad, to new and existing customers
- Protect your business from risk of non-payments
- Make better and faster credit decisions
- Ease tensions between sales and credit
- Avoid personal guarantees
- Borrow better from the bank by eliminating concentrations, and obtain higher advances with lower rates
- Eliminate letters of credit and replace them with a tax-deductible insurance provision
- Obtain leverage to collect from your customers
