It’s estimated that 1 in 10 invoices that are sent to customers go unpaid or paid so late that they are written off as bad debt. Furthermore, it’s estimated that this costs businesses $3 trillion worldwide.
What does that mean to you locally? If you are a company that does $1 million in business per year via invoice, then that could mean as much as a $100,000 write off regarding unpaid or severely late payments.
How bad is the problem? Some studies have estimated that up to 40% of small businesses in America face this issue. Depending upon your field of business, it could be higher. As a result of the bad debt, many businesses either take a loan to cover costs or cut back on staff pay to make up for the debts.
