How professional services businesses collect and move money — and where it gets hard.
- Slow invoice payments
- Invoices sent as documents are easy to set aside; paying often requires the client to log in to their bank and re-type details.
- Retainers and milestones
- Work is billed as monthly retainers, milestones or partial advances, each needing its own tracking.
- Paying freelancers
- Many firms rely on freelancers and associates who need to be paid promptly and accurately.
- Small teams, little admin time
- Partners and consultants would rather spend their time on client work than on reconciliation.
From first payment to reconciled books.
