Creating successful terms pushback outcomes
with Scott Blakeley, Esq
Businesses are now increasingly renegotiating their payment terms with suppliers through a program called terms pushback (TPB). TPB is different from a company not having the money to pay its bill, it's a strategic move many customers are making to improve cash flow. But Terms Pushback causes issues for suppliers because they must wait longer for their payment. Knowing how to respond can be key to ensuring you are running a profitable enterprise.
Experian has teamed up with credit expert and attorney, Scott Blakeley, Esq, who will lead this session. Scott will share case study examples and offer best practices for creating more positive outcomes when a TPB request arrives on your desk.
