Take control of your cashflow

The hidden cost of unpaid invoices 

Struggling with Poor Cash Flow? We’ve compiled some tips here on how to manage it. 

Cash flow is the lifeblood of any business, yet many companies find themselves struggling to manage their business due to unpaid invoices. Late payments can create a serious financial strain, making it difficult to pay suppliers, cover operational costs, and invest in growth. If you find yourself constantly chasing overdue accounts, it may be time to rethink your approach. 

Signs your business needs support recovering debt:  

Many business owners hesitate to outsource debt recovery, fearing it may harm client relationships. However, when managed professionally, debt recovery services not only recover outstanding payments but also preserve business relationships. Here’s when you need to seek help:  

• Your overdue invoices are piling up: If the ageing of you accounts receivable is growing, your business could be at risk.  

• Cash flow is unpredictable: Late payments make it hard to manage expenses, payroll, and future investments.  

• Your team spends too much time on collections: Instead of focusing on growth, your staff is bogged down chasing payments.  

• Customers ignore your follow-ups: If reminders and calls aren’t working, a professional service provider can step in. 

Practical strategies to improve cash flow  

Unpaid invoices don’t have to be an ongoing struggle. Below are steps you can take to minimise late payments and keep your cash flow steady:  

• Review your terms and conditions: Ensure they are detailed to protect your business and set out clear guidelines for your customers, suppliers, and subcontractors.  

• Set clear payment terms: Ensure your invoices state due dates, late fees, and accepted payment methods.  

• Invoice promptly and accurately: The sooner you send invoices, the sooner you get paid. Double-check for errors to avoid disputes.  

• Automate payment reminders: Use accounting software to send automated follow-ups before and after due dates.  

• Organise credit checks for your debtors: Verify financial stability before engaging in business and monitor for any changes.
