Regardless of what that money is intended for, be it to sustain someone\u2019s lifestyle or to bankroll a cause, a business will cease to be without an incoming cash flow. Unfortunately, unpaid invoices can make that cash flow stutter and slow to a trickle, and many businesses experience this problem as billed money doesn\u2019t come in.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>This presents those who rely on a small-to-medium-sized business to make a living, from the CEO to the employees, with another problem. How can they be paid if the business isn\u2019t receiving its payment for services rendered until 30, 60, or even 90 days later? Many industries have begun to make these their typical payment terms.<br \/>\nResultantly, businesses have found it difficult to continue their operations without the financial inundation from their current clients. You may have encountered this kind of issue yourself.<\/p>\n<p>If so, you are not alone by any stretch. Estimates attribute 5% of the entire national gross domestic product to unpaid invoices, with the average small business waiting to be paid around $84,000. 81% of these invoices are past due by 30 days, which is especially bad when one considers that the average small business only has 27 days of capital saved up and available to them.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, estimates put the total amount owed to small businesses due to unpaid invoices at $825 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Even without taking that sum into consideration, this is a clear issue that many businesses face whenever their invoices are not answered in a timely fashion. If these businesses don\u2019t have any funds to spare beyond what is needed to stay in business (assuming they have even that), how will they ever make the improvements they will need to stay competitive? How many projects have you abandoned halfway because it caused too much financial drain?<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-color: transparent;\">While it may seem to make no sense to invest your much-needed capital after we\u2019ve just announced that your company may fail without it, there is a simple way to save your business money as you work to get what you\u2019re due.
