MOMBASA SEMINAR: THE CREDIT MANAGEMENT, DEBT COLLECTION AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES SEMINAR 4-5 OCTOBER 2018, AT SAROVA WHITESANDS MOMBASA, KENYA
Greetings,
Bad debt, the opposite of profit, unfortunately, is part of doing business.
Debt needs to be managed to a minimum to ensure the company stays on the right track of profitability.
Without added investment, improving collection adds substantially to the bottom line.
Effective managers now view the credit and collection function as an overlooked profit maker.
Being able to extend the right amount of credit to the right accounts can expand sales and profits at almost no expense. That is why neglecting to manage credit and collection is like sabotaging your own business.
For companies, a well-trained employee means optimal resource utilization, increased cash conversion, reduced credit risk and excellent return on investment.
We therefore invite you to our Seminar on CREDIT MANAGEMENT, DEBT COLLECTION AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES that will be held on 4th-5th OCTOBER, 2018 AT THE SAROVA WHITESANDS BEACH RESORT & SPA, MOMBASA, KENYA.
This practical 2-day training course will show you how to improve your organization’s processes to increase the efficiency of credit collection. We look at how to best deal with customer excuses and manage disputed accounts correctly, and how to successfully negotiate repayment arrangements. With an abundance of practical and engaging collection and negotiation scenarios this program is designed to tutor new collectors and at the same time stands as a refresher for the more experienced ones.
