How to Sell Factoring (continued)
Rebuttals for the negatives
“ 2.5% a month is 30% per year”
Alternative is Venture Capital so we are cheap.
Focus on profits from additional business not the annualized cost of the money.
“ 75% Advance rate too low”
You can only get 100%, once the facility is flowing advances and rebates will blend together.
“ Customers will know”
All in the presentation. We present it as growth financing.
“ Lose control of AR”
AR performs better with us.
You have to run your entire business. All we focus on are your receivables.
Web based reporting.
How Versant Makes $$
Versant makes its money by charging a discount rate on the invoices we purchase.
The rate is based on the time it takes for an invoice to pay.
If an invoice pays within 30 days we charge 2.50% of the invoice amount. If it pays in 45 days we charge 4.18% and so on.
If we bought $1,000,000 of receivables and they paid in 45 days we would earn $41,800 based on the above rate structure.
Rate structure varies from 2-3% per month and is based upon the length of the contract, volume committed, dilution, strength of debtors and so on…
How Brokers Make $$ Using the above rate structure let’s go through an example: Assume we factored $1,000,000 worth of receivables in a month and we were paid the full balance on the 45 th day from the invoice date. The fee Versant earned would be $41,800 ($1MM*4.18%). Resulting in the following Monthly Broker commission for the life of the deal: Brokers are paid a percentage of Versant’s Gross Factoring Fees
