Cash Flow Financing ! Problems And Oh Yes Business Solutions !

Two Great Tips On The Cash Flow Conundrum!

Information on cash flow financing solutions and techniques for the Canadian business owner and manager . Problems can be solved via internal techniques and real world working capital tools.

Cash flow financing for your business. We're sharing some solid solutions and tips for business finance problems and challenges.

Whether your financing challenges are temporary, or seem to be occurring all the time the Canadian business owner and financial manager is always looking for a fix to that dilemma. So our focus on strategies and straightforward business financing methods that... you got it... fix the problem.

Tip # 1 - Don't pay anyone! Well we're kidding of course, but a better way of saying what we intended to mean is that you can manage a lot of your cash by using an internal solution... payables management. The trick of course is having key vendors and supplies that value your business and want to work with you to keep your business - somewhat of a classic win / in scenario, don't you think.

The ability to turn your stated 30 day terms into 60 and 90 days with your vendors allows many companies to actually become self financing. That's almost cash flow nirvana - not borrowing and growing your business. It's no secret that some of the largest companies in the world pay firms such as yours slowly just to optimize their corporate cash flow. The nerve of those guys.

Our final point on this technique is simply that you don't want to end up ruining a key supplier / vendor relationship, so a proper sharing of the facts keeping in mind the value of the relationship is critical.

Tip # 2- Accelerate collections, finance receivables, and better yet... do both! When we talk to clients about their cash flow financing challenges it’s often about their customers owing them money and not paying. The internal things you can do to fix this problem are of course to be more firm with collections and enforce your terms. Big companies hold shipments to their clients, so you should not be afraid to also. We'd also consider raising prices to clients that don't pay. Just keeping a constant watch on your days sales outstanding or collection period is going to make you a true ' Master' of business solutions and solving those working capital problems .

You might also want to offer a discount for prompt payment. One key point here is that you need to have some decent gross margins when it comes to offering a typical 2% discount for prompt payment. But don't forget also that you can take those same funds you receive and take discounts with your own suppliers. Another key concept here is to understand your borrowing rates and bench mark them against discounts you might offer for prompt payment

Solutions for cash flow
abound in Canada. It's all about picking the right one for your firm.

They include:

Receivable finance

Working capital term loans

Asset based lines of credit

Business commercial bank facilities

Tax Credit Monetization

Supply Chain Finance

Securitizing your receivables or contracts

Seek out and speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor who can assist you with your business problems via real world solutions.

What’s Your ABL Finance IQ? Info On Canadian Financing By Asset Backed Lenders !

Business Asset Based Lines of Credit

Information on ABL finance in Canada . What is this type of asset backed financing and who are the lenders that offer this business line of credit? Asset based lines of credit work!

We're pretty sure that most Canadian business owners consider themselves knowledgeable about their business and options they have in both operations and financing. But seriously, how much do you really know about ABL finance - were you aware that asset based lines of credit is the ' new financing ' paradigm shift in Canada .

So who exactly are these assets backed lenders and why can they take your firm to new heights in growth? There isn’t a day when we don’t read of many ABL ( asset based lending ) transactions happening here in the U.S. - for tens of millions of dollars.

Is that happening in Canada but we just didn’t know it? Well yes and know, in case you haven’t heard we've got a smaller economy, but we can assure readers that ABL Financing is becoming a mainstream solution to Canadian working capital and cash flow needs .

Did you know that in the last decade over 10 Billion dollars of ABL financing was taking place in Canada on an annual basis? Right under your eyes!

But we're realists and we fully realize that many Canadian firms aren’t aware that asset backed lenders exist, let alone are using them. Ours therefore is to inform!!

We do forgive some quasi well informed clients that have a perception that ABL finance was a financing of last resort so to speak. The reality is that ABL does in fact finance many firms that are challenged and can’t obtain traditional bank financing.

But, and its a big but, thousands of firms in Canada utilize asset backed lenders for their operating lines of credit to facilitate growing their companies, expanding into new lines or geographies, acquiring competitor, or simply re financing their company in a manner that works better!

So why is Canadian business migrating to this new form of business financing? Simply because it’s more creative and flexible than the more formulaic approach that our great friends at Canadian chartered banks take.

And what is the cost of this type of financing. More often than not that’s questions number one when we sit down with clients. We'll put on our lawyer hat and say ' it depends ' which isn’t quite the answer we think you were looking for..!

The reality is that ABL financing is based on size of facility, who you are dealing with, your overall asset quality (abl finances receivables, inventory and equipment and real estate) as well as your firms overall credit situation - i.e. good / bad/ugly. (Yes ABL finances ugly.

One or two more things to know to fill up and increase your intelligence quotient (IQ!) on lenders that offer this financing . Simply that many are non bank independent finance companies , some are U.S. based but doing great jobs here, and some are Canadian but smaller in size - but still able to satisfy the majority of Canadian firms .

Well that’s it... Oh! Did we forget something? Oh yes. What is ABL by the way!! Simply a revolving line of credit that lenders against the value of your current and fixed assets on a daily revolving basis. It's a business line of credit!

Looking to fill up more on your ABL IQ? Speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor who will help you determine if this facility is the best thing that ever happened to your business financing needs.

5 Revolutionary Breakthroughs In Working Capital Business Loans & Cash Flow Canada !

New methods of working capital financing in Canada

Information on working capital and cash flow business loans and non – loan solutions for Canadian business

Mission impossible? We're going to try and re program your business brain around some innovative ways to look at working capital and cash flow solutions for Canadian business - and it might be a loan scenario... and then again it might not?

And about that word ' revolutionary ‘... we’ll leave that up to you to decide. However, we're quite sure we've got some working capital and cash flow innovation coming your way.

A popular term these days is ' the liquidity gap ' - it is simply the challenge that small and medium sized businesses tend to face in Canadian business financing. When you really think about your balance sheet that liquidity gap more often than not tends to focus on the investment you carry in receivables and inventory.

Also, financing options utilized in the past - we tend to call them ' traditional financing ‘, don't seem to be available, and when they are they don’t suit your needs re size, type of facility, and external collateral and guarantees that might be required.

No one is more a fan of Canadian banks than us. We love them. Canadian business owners and financial managers seem to struggle with why they can’t get financing for the bank. We heard a great explanation of that recently.

So, have we got a great story for you? As Canadians we put our funds into a bank, we also seem to have this feeling that we should be able to get it out anytime we want it. That's the story! Because in a simplistic way the banks can't really over lend to small and medium businesses because that is not the deal it made with me as a depositor. So I apologize for that! I made a deposit; I didn't contribute to a start up hedge fund!

Anyway... working capital and cash flow solutions are clearly available from Canadian chartered banks - but repayment from you must be certain- so have those good balance sheets and additional collateral and guarantees ready.

Back to those ' revolutionary' working capital solutions we have talked about. And as we said, they might not be a pure ' loan ‘.

From our point of view some of the most innovative ways to achieve 'cash flow nirvana ' might be facilities you have never heard of. What are they?

5 of the best solutions you should consider are as follows - purchase order financing, asset based lines of credit, merchant advance loans, C I D receivable financing, and tax credit monetization.

A short recap of those? Purchase order financing allows your supplier to be paid directly by the financier. Asset based lines of credit are facilities based on current and ongoing values of your total inventory and receivables. Are you a smaller or retail oriented business? Merchant advance financing provides cash flow today for sales you make tomorrow.

Everyone has heard of factoring. But C I D receivable financing provides you with the same benefits, i.e. same day cash flow on sales, but you bill and collect your own receivables without notification to clients, suppliers, etc. And finally, got a SRED claim to be filed? Monetize it today with a SR &ED bridge loan.

Want more info? Seeing the potential benefits already? Speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor for a working capital business loans and solutions that maximize your cash flow requirements. It's as simple as that.

Power Your Business Financing with Canadian ABL Services : Why Asset Based Lending Works

Unsurpassed Financing Flexibility With Asset Based Lending

Information on Canadian ABL services and why asset based financing and lending eliminates working capital challenges

It's always about the bank. Well ... not always... It seems that Canadian business financing continues to evolve and Canadian ABL services via asset based financing credit facilities are slowly getting to the top of the popularity pile.

Why this type of financing work well and why does is it becoming the accepted alternative to traditional Canadian chartered bank financing? We think we know why.

Although it might seem that the Canadian business and economic environment changes quickly these days we maintain that for the last two or 3 years the one thing that hasn’t changed is the ability for Canadian business owners and financial managers to get ' traditional ' financing from those great folks at the bank.

Skepticism and bank regulations in Canada seem to eliminate more and more qualified business borrower’s everyday. So it’s a struggle and if you are a small or medium sized firm in Canada the ability to grow or change your business is difficult.

Enter ABL lending in the Canadian marketplace. This type (we call it non-bank) of revolving credit facility is the new ' band aid ' for almost any size business, filling the void between traditional financing.

So why an asset is based lending facility able to work for your firm when a bank facility might not even is attainable. We guess it’s about risk and reward, in that for the same or higher cost almost any decent sized business has the ability to qualify for ABL services and financing.

The other side of the coin is also that the whole approval process is often quicker, in that there is only one key agenda item to review - your assets. Typically these assets are receivables; inventory and equipment, with real estate a borrowing possibility also, included right in your asset based lending facility.

We speak of the ' power ' of ABL. The true power lies simply in the fact that the assets we mentioned that are used as collateral are margined significantly higher than in the manner that a bank would margin those same assets. So it isn’t your financial statements strength that has the power - it’s those ' assets ' within the financials!

The broad appeal of asset based lending also lies in the fact that it’s flexible, that the other side of our ABL power equation. Your firm doesn’t necessarily have to be profitable (it helps ... but not required) and even if you face current financial challenges and setbacks you are still eligible. Even special loans clients can use ABL to escape from the restrictive claws of a special loans environment.

So whats our bottom line - it simply that if the Canadian banking environment continues to be unable to serve the demands of fast growing or challenged business... well... ABL financing services will step in and nicely fill that gap.

Ultimately it still might be your business goal to obtain a ' traditional ' facility. That’s ok of course. In the meantime thought consider the true power of asset based lines of credit as a funding option that will meet all your financing needs... today! Speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor to eliminate that uphill financing battle you've been facing.

Business Funding : What Factors Determine The Type Of Debt Financing Your Business Needs !

Canadian Business Financing Strategies

Information on the advantages and potential risk of debt financing in Canada . Factors that determine business funding when non equity solutions are required to fund Canadian firms

Debt financing. When it comes to business funding that is ' non equity ' in nature the busines owner and manager can benefit from a number of business financing solutions. A good solid way to begin is to ensure which solutions are available and to ensure you understand the pros and cons of each.

When it comes to debt finance solutions it's paramount to remember that the lender, finance firm, bank etc is not sharing profits and is at risk - as such pretty well their only focus is getting paid!

In a way that’s the benefit, i.e. one of our ‘pros’ of taking on debt - You know exactly what conditions and rates come with the loan ( hopefully!) - It's just up to you to ensure you have the cash flow to repay. So broadly speaking, you're very much in control, unlike being at the whims of an equity investor.

Let's recap some of the key sources of debt financing in Canada - they include:

Bank loans

Government Small business loans

Leasing

Mortgages

Also included in our list are:

Inventory financing

Receivables factoring

Asset based credit lines

Tax Credit Monetization

Supply Chain /PO Finance

These latter 5 monetize current assets so they are in fact a bit of a hybrid.

Most companies very quickly discover that no firm can be properly financed with 100% debt, so it’s important to keep in mind the relationship between debt and equity. That equity in fact becomes the business owners risk and that’s why it's probably also prudent to manage your debt load.

What factors affect a company's ability to get debt financing? In smaller to medium sized firms the actual credit status and history of the owners is very important.

Is size important in debt financing? It sure is! Many firms constantly struggle to acquire more debt based on their growth needs. We can pretty well guarantee to clients that if the proper cash flow projections arent available, realistic and accurate that not a lot of debt financing is going to take place.

Rates are of course critical in debt financing, and are typically commensurate with the risk profile of your firm, as well as the nature of the firm or bank you are dealing with. The same pretty well goes for collateral, whether that is personal or corporate as a ' back up ' to the debt financing facility.

It's critical to exercise diligence and caution when taking on debt for your firm. Just the actual ratio of debt to equity is a good number to always monitor ... 2 Time debt to equity is a commonly respected ratio. When it’s higher than that you're force to generate extra cash just to pay and service that debt.

We're pretty sure that we make debt sound like somewhat of a burden. That is not the case though, as the right amount of debt and overall leverage can make your company more successful, and if there is one guarantee in life it’s that debt is cheaper than equity. And remember also that there are a number of non bank firms that can supply the debt you need if you are rejected by our Canadian banking system.

In many cases rates and size of the loan or loans you seek might be appropriate but the overall conditions the loan demands may not be suitable. That's when you might well seek out and speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor who can assist you with your debt financing and funding needs.

Back By Popular Demand ! Canadian Working Capital Cash Flow Financing And Loan Alternatives

Canadian Business Financing and Cash Flow Solutions And Alternatives!

Information on working capital cash flow financing in Canada . What business loan and other finance facilities work best for your firm

‘Focus On Growth ‘- That was the heading in a business article in one of Canada's two leading business newspapers. We try as often as we can to translate their interpretations of whats happening back to where we work every day, which is the real world!

So, working capital and cash flow financing , whether through a loan or other facilities. That’s our focus today. A key point made in the article focused on the fact that so many firms had cut costs or held back that they missed, or are missing major growth opportunities to grow both sales and profits . The focus of the Canadian business owner and financial manager was ' cash shortages ‘, said the article, thereby impacting growth.

‘Make better use of your cash ‘said the article, and encouraged you to maximize supplier credit, and at the same time work the other end of the spectrum, which is your own receivables policy.

A constant comment we hear from clients is that they not only don’t know ' the fix ' to a working capital and cash flow problem, they often actually don’t understand what the problem is or how to measure it. Let's look at some of those measurement tools, and more importantly, ' the fixes'!

As business owners ourselves we can relate to the fact that every time a business feels some sort of cash shortage you might feel your business is ' in trouble '.

Businesses finance working capital through the current asset accounts, namely receivables and inventory. In Canada those assets are financed either through a bank line of credit, or various types of working capital facilities that are more alternative in nature. They include asset based lines of credit, receivables financing facilities, and purchase order financing.

The latter three solutions tend to be more expensive for Canadian business, but in our experience provide you with much more cash flow and working capital. Important also to remember this type of solution is not a loan alternative, you are simply monetizing or cash flowing your assets, and that’s a good thing.

We spoke of ways to measure the strain you have on working capital. Business owners need to realize that only efficiently moving receivables and inventory can be financed. If you are financing through a bank then not only is your margining limited but you more often than not have a borrowing limit. That can really impact growth ability.

It’s also important for Canadian businesses to understand that access to more working capital shouldn’t make them lose their focus on losses and unprofitability.

Let's look at a quick example - let’s say a business has an operating line of credit of 1.2 Million as an example. The firm borrows to the maximum but then sales drop off significantly. Your bank reduces the credit line because your borrowing and margining power just is not there due to those slow sales. This then puts tremendous pressures on those supplier payables resulting in both loss of credibility with suppliers and operating losses due to those lower sales. It's a vicious circle.

The bottom line is of course that lack of working capital and cash flow financing can kill your business - short term losses aren’t great, but they are manageable. But insolvency due to real cash flow challenges is very real and deadly

And back to our article that we mentioned on growth. Small and medium sized business in Canada has the ability to access traditional credit, as well as numerous other ' growth' working capital alternatives. A loan or debt is typically not the answer to growth.

So investigate cash flow financing alternatives such as tax credit financing, working capital facilities that are non bank in nature and margin A/R and inventory, as well as more esoteric financing such as purchase order finance and specialized inventory finance. Want more info... seek a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor who can put you on track to ' growth ‘!

Should You Finance Your SRED Tax Credits Via SRED Consultants On Your SR and ED Claim?

Should you, or shouldn't you? We're talking about your SRED tax credits, filing the actual SRED claim for financing purposes, and the role of 'SRED consultants' in the whole process.

A basic primer never helps, as we still today run into many clients that don't even know what the whole cra SRED program is, let alone use it, and let alone use the proceeds for working capital financing.

If you're a speaker they say it's good to know about your ' target audience '. Well, our target audience is very clear! Whether you are a start up, or an established Canadian company, and if you are spending any money at all on research and development costs, then, guess what - you're our target audience today.

And, if you can utilize the program the ability to finance your claim for immediate cash flow and working capital improves your balance sheet immediately, certainly from a liquidity viewpoint - and cash is always king we are told.

Let's cover off who those SRED consultants are, because they are a key process in the filing, and to a certain degree, financing of your claim. That claim of course allows you to get your firms share of the 3-4 Billion dollars of annual cheques that are written to your competitors, and our goal with our information is to get that funding into your hands as soon as possible.

SRED consultants are private individuals and firms, somewhat boutique in nature, that specialize in writing and filing your SRED claim. Filling out any government form for us has always been a daunting task, but to miss the opportunity in a SRED filing and getting approval isn't just embarrassing, it could cost your firms thousands, or tens of thousands of dollars in missed refunds. So these consultants tend to be very experienced in SRED claim process, and have the ability to maximize your SRED tax credits to bring you the most dollars possible.

Who isn't interested in a non repayable credit from the government? Certainly no one we speak to. So we think you would agree that the ability to ' get with the program ' so to speak, when it comes to a SRED claim is beneficial to any firm. And by the way, only privately owned Canadian firms can benefit in this manner from SRED tax credits.

So your firm is eligible - you're either a first time filer, or you have been doing this for years. What else could you possibly benefit from in this program? The answer is, we think, that you should consider financing your claim. Why does that make sense? To us maybe its too obvious, but the ability to cash flow your SRED tax credits into immediate working capital puts you one step ahead of the game when it comes to your business growth.

Financing the claim is a very simple process. Locate a Canadian business financing advisor that is trusted, credible and experienced in SRED tax credit financing. That person will help you understand the basics of the financing - which is essentially a bridge loan collateralized by your claim. In effect you're financing or monetizing a government receivable. Your receive approximately 70% of the valued of your filed claim, now, which we think is better than waiting, 3, 4 or even 12 months for your claim to be approved and to receive your funds via the government.

Claims can be financed within a matter of weeks, and the process is simply a business application supported by the information around your SRED claim. Having your claim prepared by one of those qualified SRED consultants just simply lends credibility to your filing. So, should you or shouldn't you. Our recommendation - file a SRED claim if your are eligible. Finance it if you want cash flow and working capital now. It's as simple as that.
