Re: Embroiderers who haven't paid their digitizers
I hear you Ink Guy, but doing that means you will not have the Club Colors, AIA, or Proforma franchisees then.. They each have dozens if not Hundreds of sales reps with all invoices being paid from a centralized office by check only. So the gamble with them is bankruptcy or foreclosure as happened with our client, but in the history of working with them for as long as we have you are still talking about hundreds of thousands of dollars that to me is worth the $555 loss. And still quite a savings over cc fees we would have paid if they were not terms... I was just complaining that it still should not have happened.
As far as the smaller clients we still tend to err to the side of trusting people and allowing terms to many that ask. Most are great payers but for those that do not pay I just see it as a character flaw in them not something I should penalize others for. I am just pointing out what does happen.
You are correct, it is a personal business decision that to us, even with the bad apples still makes us feel like we are providing a little bit of old school courtesy.
