How to Set up Effective Terms and Conditions Before you Sell on Credit
Setting up effective terms and conditions can be a challenge for many small business owners when they are formulating their payment infrastructure. Extending credit can be an effective small business strategy as it allows your business to establish customer loyalty and to increase sales with customers who would not do business with your company otherwise. Consider the following tips when you are setting up your small business terms and conditions:
Dont let your clients move the goal posts Protect your company
Large companies with purchasing power have been moving the goal posts and bullying their suppliers to accept new payment terms. Fightyourcorner advises suppliers to put in place good debt management systems to avoid problems in the future. Good debt management should protect companies affected by sudden changes in contract terms.
Getting Paid
Accepting payment today is becoming more complex. Entrepreneurs need to plan their payment acceptance strategy.
Increase Profits Without Adding Resources Part 3
Two often overlooked profit drains are quality and vendor payment terms. Changing your approach in handling both of these factors can help you increase profits without adding resources.
Using an RRSP for a Down Payment – Dipping into RRSP Accounts
If you have been interested in buying a home for some time but have not managed yet to accumulate enough money for a down payment in your current savings account, you may want to consider the possibility of using an RRSP for a down payment. While this certainly has its share of pros and cons, for many people, this is a logical solution. Some will use their RRSP account for the funds to take a gap year off to travel, and others will use it to purchase an automobile, so why not consider using this money, which is entirely yours, as the means for a down payment for a home?
Small Business: Payment Processors and Shopping Carts
I'm often asked to provide advice on what type of shopping cart / payment processor a business should implement. The answer is not quite so simple and in this article, I've tried to outline the processes and technologies that go together to deliver a payment and affiliate solution and offer some choices. It can get very confusing trying to marry up and connect Payment Processors, Shopping Carts and payment buttons. This article is designed to clarify the difference between the three and what type of solution may best suit your business requirements.
Mobile Payment Services
Many users today trust their mobile more than their bank when it comes to handle money. Mobile payment, also called M-payment or m-payment, is at forefront of this technological innovation, development and establishing this element of trust and security. The improvement of security has seen the use of mobile funds transfer and transactions increase both in quantity of goods and services purchased, as well as value.

Games Debtors Play - Part Two
People who owe money usually pay as expected. The problem is with the small percentage of debtors who develop excuses, stalls, and evasions that are not only annoying but also result in no payment or late payment. So, business people, from sole proprietorships to the largest corporations, need to be aware of the most common excuses as well as how to best deal with them, so as to get the maximum payment in the shortest time, while also keeping the goodwill, and the business, of the customers and clients they want to keep.
Coming Soon to Your Neighborhood: Falling Home Values Mean More Underwater Mortgages
If you think the tidal wave of underwater mortgages has receded, think again. The fact is that the underwater mortgage situation is almost certainly going to get worse before it gets better. Why is that? In part because of an ugly little mortgage product called adjustable rate mortgages, or ARMs. You see, ARMs look great on paper. The homeowner gets a nice, low monthly payment for the first 1-7 years, depending on the terms you get. But then . . . well, then the loan payment resets to reflect inflation.

How to create positive cash to leverage lump sales cycles
Many businesses structure their payment terms in a way that reduces not only cash flow but also profit. They have valuable money and resources invested in projects or stock- and then their customers drag their feet and pay months after their product or service has been delivered.
