Are you spending restless hours checking payments from your customers, debtors, or partners? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is your finance team battling to tally transactions and reconciling them? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Was that a <\/strong>YES, YES, YES, YES?<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAccording to a survey, 79% of small businesses have struggled to pay a supplier and have faced cash flow issues, up from 71% pre-pandemic in 2021\u201d<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result of these cash flow issues and payments, SME business owners face challenges like:  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Slowed business growth (40%) <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    1. Missed opportunities to seal future projects (31%)  <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      1. Poor Working Capital Management (25 %) <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        1. Lost prospective candidates for hiring (19%) <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Despite their potential, SME payment processes pose significant challenges for Indian business owners. Let’s take a look and see what they are: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Financial Workflows<\/strong>: <\/strong>Despite the business intelligence tools in the market, many small & medium scale companies, are yet to automate their financial workflows and payments. SMEs often are tied up with manual tracking, cross-team communication, and back-and-forth follow-ups with debtors, resulting in revenue loss and resource wastage.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Cash Flow Visibility & Tracking:<\/strong> Cash flow management<\/strong> is essential to reconcile and increase profitability for any company. If not done, there is a lack of visibility in tracking transactions, leading to errors.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Could you imagine presenting the real time business <\/strong>cash flow report at this point\/minute? With BFM, that\u2019s possible in just a few clicks! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Delay in Fund Settlement:<\/strong> Setting up company payment terms & polices, mentioning a period such as a window for settlements would help.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \u201cA survey in India reveals that half of the total value of B2B sales is on credit. When asked about the reasons for payment delays from their B2B customers: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          1. 55% postponed payment<\/strong> of invoices to their own suppliers <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
            1. 40% needed to strengthen<\/strong> their internal credit control procedures <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
              1. 39% needed to pursue <\/strong>additional financing from external sources\u201d 
                 
                With BFM, get rid of back-and-forth follow-ups with debtors, and collect payments 20% faster.  <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
