Of the many challenges the owner of a staffing company faces, making payroll every week is the most critical. Customers can take 30 to even 90 days to pay their invoices, but employees must be paid every Friday. When a staffing company is growing this becomes an even bigger issue. Many staffing companies take advantage of using a factoring company.
Factoring companies provide the working capital a staffing agency requires to grow and be successful. The process is simple, the staffing agency sells their invoices to the factoring company for cash. Each week the staffing agency gathers their employee timesheets; invoices their customer, and then sells the invoices to their factoring company. The factoring company will advance 85% to 95% of the invoice. The remaining balance will be refunded to the staffing company once the invoice is paid, less a nominal fee for factoring.
In addition to providing critical working capital for the staffing company, a top rated factoring company will also provide important backroom services of running credit checks and assist in collecting past due invoices. Having an experienced team of professionals performing these important duties has helped many new staffing agencies minimize any bad debt loss.
