HOW DOES WORKING CAPITAL FUNDING WORK?
Sometimes a company does not have adequate cash on hand or asset liquidity to cover day-to-day operational expenses and, thus, will secure funding for this purpose. Companies that have high seasonality or cyclical sales usually rely on working capital funding to help with periods of reduced business activity. Many companies do not have stable or predictable revenue throughout the year. Manufacturing companies, for example, have cyclical sales that correspond with the needs of retailers. Most retailers sell more products during the fourth quarter – that is, the holiday season – than at any other time of the year.
Businesses that experience seasonality in their revenues are the most common users of working capital funding. Companies often use this small business funding to get through slow periods with the intention of paying the money back when the lull is over and business is bustling again. Other small businesses might use working capital funding to stock up on inventory before their busy season.
Types of financing include term funding, a business line of credit or invoice financing, a form of short-term borrowing that is extended by a funder to its business customers based on unpaid invoices. Business credit cards, which allow you to earn rewards, can also provide access to working capital.
WHEN SHOULD A BUSINESS TAKE OUT A WORKING CAPITAL FUNDING?
Working capital funding is great when your business is short on capital because of a temporary issue.
Here are some of the most common reasons to get working capital funding.
1. INCONSISTENT CASH FLOW
If your customers take a long time to pay invoices, or your inventory takes a long time to turn over, your business’s cash flow will suffer.
2. SEASONAL SALES FLUCTUATIONS
Working capital funding can come in handy for seasonal businesses that need to pay business expenses while sales are slow or to purchase inventory when needed.
3. BUSINESS GROWTH SPURTS
Working capital funding helps businesses invest in growing and marketing their businesses.
4. NEW BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES
A working capital funding can help you purchase new equipment, invest in training, or give you the resources you need to expand your business and take advantage of opportunities when they arise. Working capital funding can also allow you to take on projects that are a good investment in the long run but may not have an immediate payoff.
5. CASH CUSHION
If your business doesn’t have much wiggle room for unanticipated expenses, working capital can act as a sort of cash cushion or emergency fund that helps ensure that your business can deal with the unexpected.
