Factoring is Not Always About Cash Flow Problems, For Many It's About Growth
Even though Factoring is an extremely common business practice in Europe, many American business people have never heard of it or used it. Factoring has been practiced for centuries; the Romans sold promissory notes at a discount and the Pilgrims journeys to America were financed by advances from a Factor who provided the funds to pay for the journey. The Pilgrims repaid the money with earnings from America. The word "factor" comes from Latin, the language of Rome. It means "to do" or "to make."Even the United State Congress acknowledges and supports factoring with the passing of the Assignment of Claims Act, (31 U.S.C.3727) which states that “Contractor or its assignee may assign its rights to receive payment due as a result of performance” to a financing institution. This is the assignment of invoices, know as factoring.Factoring is the selling of your acc

The Chinese Denim Market
Under the MFA quota system, each supplier country poised to its limits on the volume of textiles and clothing that may be imported from each individual nation with which it trades. From about 60 different countries, U.S. quotas comprised of 2,400 products. It was anticipated that the removal of these quotas will mainly be advantageous to Chinese (and to a smaller amount to Indian) producers, who are capable to challenge their international competition due to its combination of an undervalued currency, low wages, and outright labor domination. In an incongruous twist, the majority of developing countries, who insisted on the phase-out of the MFA as resources to raise their exports of textiles and clothing to well-off countries, insisted on an extension of quotas or some other system that can assure them any share of prosperous country markets provided the projection of China's a

Training: Not a One Hit Wonder
Leadership development requires many levels of effort and commitment. There needs to be accountability, a structure of effort on self-development, and a commitment from senior management that is more than simply spending training dollars.Training is not an event. It is a continuous improvement process that will distinguish between those looking to build a career and those waiting on the company to provide one. Getting the best ROI on your leadership development requires the following steps:Step 1: Establish a Training ProcessMost companies make training decisions based on budget and available training dollars. Can you imagine a doctor saying you need open heart surgery and you reply, “I don’t have that in the budget. Can you just give me some medication and hopefully next year I’ll have the budget to do it?”If your leadership hasn’t been getting trai

Do Not Shortchange Funding Needs - Too Little is Worse Than Too Much
There is an old adage in the funding community: “Investing $1,000,000 to fail is expensive, investing $5,000,000 to succeed is cheap. Investors will respond to funding needs based on real world assumptions. They will be very cautious when assessing a venture’s real funding requirements.Think of investment capital as fertilizer. If a farmer applies too little he harvests a poor crop or worse. Too much fertilizer and the harvest will likewise be disappointing. Experienced, successful farmers know their fields, their climate, crop planting patterns and their equipment. They will apply every pound of fertilizer needed to maximize their harvest. Investors handle their capital in exactly the same way.I review many business plan submissions each year.
