Invoice factoring
Invoice factoring is a financing tool where a business sells its accounts receivable to a third-party factor at a percentage of face value, receiving most of the cash upfront and the remainder (minus fees) once your customer pays. Unlike a loan, you're selling an asset rather than borrowing, so credit underwriting focuses on your customers' creditworthiness, not your balance sheet. For Fraser companies along the 15 Mile Road corridor and near I-696, this approach fits manufacturers, distributors, and service contractors who invoice commercial clients but can't wait weeks for payment to cover payroll, materials, or equipment repairs.
Foothill Advances operates as a broker from our office at 8301-8399 E 12 Mile Rd, Warren, MI 48093, Warren, MI. We connect Fraser business owners with factoring networks that understand Michigan's industrial economy, so you're not locked into one lender's terms or approval criteria.
Invoice factoring
Fraser sits at the intersection of Macomb County's automotive supply chain and small-scale manufacturing clusters, with many shops serving tier-two suppliers and tool-and-die operations. These businesses often extend credit to larger clients who pay on 45- or 60-day cycles, creating cash-flow gaps that strain payroll and inventory budgets. Invoice factoring bridges that gap without adding debt to your books, a critical distinction when you're already carrying equipment loans or a commercial lease.
Consider a Fraser precision-machining shop that invoices Detroit-area OEMs: outstanding receivables might total tens of thousands, but rent and raw-material orders come due every month. By factoring a batch of invoices, the shop converts paper into cash and keeps the production line running while waiting for customer checks to clear.
