    Factoring Receivables - Working Capital For Growing Businesses
    If you sell goods/services to other businesses or to the government, then you know that commonly you have to wait 30 to 60 days to get paid for your services. Unless your business is well capitalized, waiting to get paid can drain your working capital and affect your business.Lack o
    Some companies have a set of keywords they focus on when organizing activities. CLIENT, could be such a keyword, meaning to always focus on the client. RESULT and SOLUTION are two other examples. They seem clear, but carry a lot of difficulties with them.

    Result is meant to be tangible and measurable. A project that is finished on time meets that criterion. A solution is like an answer to a question; It is an answer to a problem or set of problems. What problems are there? Lets have a look at a few:

    • There is a (relative) decline in the demand for products
    • Management information is not sufficient. It is not clear what the effect of a marketing campaign is
    • Current systems can not handle cooperative actions with third parties
    • Etc, etc...

    Now, to solve this, you need a solution:

    • Hire an extra sales force
    • Build or maintain a system that solves the information leak and run more campaigns
    • Invest in new infrastructure that makes cooperation with third parties possible
    • Etc, etc…

    The first solution is rather simple. It is a temporary demand on resources, which is manageable. The second one is already more challenging. Here you have many options. The third solution requires a familiar amount of attention.

    If you stress "Result" more than (the type) of "Solution" you may end up with a very short term solution that will benefit for only a limited period of time. Besides you may overlook long term effects (compare with overexposure of sun and long term effects) New or different problems will occur and you have to redo the same actions. You can have a rapid solution. If you reserve too much time for figuring out a (perfect)solution you finally might come up with one, but that took too long. You cannot foresee all market movements and changes.

    How to Host a Successful Fundraiser
    Hosting a successful fundraiser is no accident. It requires planning, commitment, and more than a little bit of salesmanship. If this sounds like a lot of work, make no mistake about it, it is. But it’s rewarding work, it’s meaningful work, and done the right way, it can be fun work. F

    Result orientation is externally focused. It is measured by the sales of goods and services. By clients. Finding solutions is an internal focused activity. Within the different periods both should level themselves out. The best thing is to constantly level them as a constant point on the agenda; What kind of solutions do we normally choose in our organization.

    Follow that line and you have a strategy.
