Welcome. Isn’t that what your first blog should be? Find out who we are, why we are here, what we want to say, why you should come back. Well… Yes.
As an underwriter, account executive, credit officer and consultant to other factoring companies, I have been in the factoring and asset based lending industry for over 13 years. This is the part where I guess you could say I have been in the industry, have helped run a factoring business, and have experience in all aspects of factoring.
I am doing this now with the help of friends and industry peers to create this blog. We are here because those in the industry want interaction and feedback, because others in the industry want to share information, and because if we cannot help each other, then who can we help? I also do this because I do get calls every week with questions on the business and just thought this would be a resource to share that information. So you know… it will not be 100 percent factoring related. If you know me, I have a tendency to go off on tangents. That will happen on occasion, whether I intend to or not.
Under the introduction of how this Welcome started — why do this? Because I do (if you know me) seem to have a lot to say… not to those who already know everything but to those that don’t or that want to get more information, or just those that want that ‘one good thing’ out of this… to help them do better both personally and professionally in our industry, to those who want to learn more, to those that that believe factoring is their passion – not just their job.
So, why will you come back? That’s easy. It’s a resource that will include articles from across the industry (us, other factors and niche providers). And, I don’t believe in this being an outlet for companies to sell their services or companies. Those that help in providing articles for the blog can give their contact information if you want more answers… but that is all (sorry but this is not for advertising – yet).
Whether you find this blog helpful – or not – we will be here (at least for now). We look forward to being your resource you can use in your work and day to day lives.
Wishing you success… the Factor Guru.
