Successful Credit Control, 2nd edition (249 pages, $75 paperback, 1998, ISBN 0471975265) by Martin Posner, published by John Wiley & Sons. Every year, profitable companies fail as a result of cash flow problems. This doesn't need to be, says author Posner. Between 30% and 40% of a business's assets may be represented by debtors, yet few businesses obtain credit reports on their customers, and many companies have inadequate systems for debt management. This book outlines a framework of key checkpoints through which the creditworthiness of customers -- both in the domestic and overseas markets -- can be evaluated quickly and efficiently. New interviews with leading credit managers show how to improve profitability and still retain customers. Other specialists in the debt-recovery field illustrate how to collect a debt without knocking the wind out of a company.
