“So Geoff, what happened to that blog of yours… it’s been 15 months!”
Well, in order… “busy, difficult house move, busy, missing password, cancer”… 5 answers which cover the relevant 3mth blocks…
Does any of this ring bells? From the mundane to the profound, lots of smaller businesses often have more on their “to do” list than they can cope with… often with credit control falling down in the priorities – right until the bank account is empty… which means weeks or even months can go between action to collect on overdue invoices!
Since my last blog, money has become – if possible – even harder to claw in, so maybe it’s time to revise those priorities, before your bank balance forces you to!
Credit Control – that is to say, the art of securing both payment AND customer – requires a regular and consistent approach to really work… So while I make time to regularly update my blog in future, I’d suggest everyone who reads this to make the same commitment to ensuring time is spent each and every week to getting overdue invoices paid… no matter what other “priorities” are calling!
