Web-Based Invoices And Making Direct Debits Easy With Smart Automation

By Susan Bapsnill


As an SME size company proprietor you have probably fantasized about having your clients signup for your services and products in a hassle-free streamlined online order process. Part of this seamless sign up process is the collection of subscription payments via automated hassle-free debit order. Unfortunately the debit collection fantasy bubble tends to pop for most small to medium size business managers when they realize the costs involved with making a system like that mentioned above.

This happy dream also begins to turn into a nightmare when you realize that billing for all these accounts as well as payment reconciliation will have to be completed by hand. Can you say 100's of man hours? This is the reason why most SMEs think this kind of billing is not cost effective and won't suit the needs of their particular style of business.

We're here to tell you that now is the time to look again! Out in the world of the internet there are a few good men who have heeded the call of the SME owner and come to their aid with out-the-box billing and online invoicing software that not only automates your billing, but sends and automates debit order payments. This is a very new field, so most software are still in beta, but there are a few professional industry leaders that are definitely worth using.

Thetype of business owner that wants to use a system like this is forward thinking, tech savvy, but no nerd and willing to make a serious change in the way they make money. Businesses that provide monthly subscriptions to a service or offer customers the ability to pay off a big purchase on a monthly basis will love this kind of full service system; allowing them to issue invoices, collect payments and reconcile accounts all with the tiniest amount of staff members conceivable.

Debit order facilities are the most efficient ways of collecting payments from customers. With direct debits it is possible to effect payment from your debtor on your terms. You may even trace their account for a specific amount of days to watch for incoming monies. In combination with a great invoicing system, direct debit can be an incredible payment collection method in ensuring the best possible cash flow for your company.

So let's put those admin issues in the past. Get on the web and locate a great online invoicing and debit payment collection and automation service today. It's as easy as doing a search for "web-based billing".
