Factoring Government Receivables

The US Government continues to be the biggest spender in the world.  That is good news for the some twenty-five million small and medium sized business located in the United States.  Government contracts can mean big money and a boon to smart entrepreneurs and business owners that grab these opportunities.  So what’s the bad news?  Getting paid by the US government is not easy and can take a long time.  There are mounds of paperwork, documentation must be in order and submitted correctly, not to mention the actual process of getting the checks cut.  This can mean that a business owner can wait anywhere from fifty to one hundred twenty days to get paid.  Many businesses cannot wait that long as they need to make payroll, replenish supplies, or purchase materials to fulfill the next order.

So what is a cash-strapped business to do?  Well, the obvious comes to mind – get a bank loan, borrow money from friends and family, or even worse – give up equity in the company in exchange for some working capital.  BTB Capital has another solution.  This is a solution that won’t create extra debt on your balance sheet nor require you to give up ownership in your company.  It is called government invoice factoring.

Government factoring is quite simple.  You continue to operate your business in the usual way with the exception of your invoicing.  When you generate your invoice you provide a copy to BTB Capital and we provide you with the cash you need to operate your business now.  No more checking the mailbox everyday hoping the big check arrives.  We can normally wire money directly into your bank account within 24 hours of receiving the invoice.  

Ok, so this sounds great, but it must be really expensive.  Not really.  Consider the cost of missing a payroll or even worse, not meeting the deadlines and milestones on your government contract.  The actual cost will normally be between 2 and 3 percent of the invoice amount, a small price to pay for complete peace of mind and the freedom to operate your business in the best mode possible.

If it is time for you to begin sleeping better and night – not worrying about when the next check will come, call BTB Capital at (877) 282-2677 and ask to speak to a government receivables specialist.  It only takes a couple of days to set up your account and begin to operate your business efficiently.
