General Billing & Invoicing
Business owners may find that some customers prefer to receive a monthly bill. If a customer won’t pay the full amount, or sign up for Pre-Authorized Checking to have an amount automatically deducted from his or her bank account, monthly billing may be the last option.
Small businesses and independent professionals need an economical and efficient means of issuing monthly invoices. . . a service you can offer by generating and mailing the bills for any company.
Outsourcing billing and invoicing is a smart choice
Business owners are familiar with the concept of outsourcing regular financial tasks. ADP, a multi-billion dollar publicly traded company that provides payroll services, has built an empire on this very concept.
With our multi-client billing and invoicing software, you can prepare and process invoices for your clients, mail them or even e-mail them to the customers. Outsourcing is an effective way for businesses to save time and money, while focusing on their core competency.
The Small Business Administration states that on average, companies are realizing a 9% cost savings and a 15% increase in capacity and quality through outsourcing.
Who Are Your Prospects?
Any business owner who would like to have more time to concentrate on building their business, not doing paperwork, is a prospect for this service.
Small businesses with no employees or a small, overworked staff are often eager to turn over the work. These business owners or independent professionals often put off billing or have to wait until they have time. That can slow cash flow. Larger businesses also welcome the idea of being free of the billing tasks.

Of the 62 billion pieces of first-class mail that the U.S. Post Office delivers every year, 60% are bills, according to Dr. John Sviokla, a professor at Harvard Business School.
