Marketing Agency Payment Timing Reality
Marketing agencies deliver work but wait weeks or months for payment. Enterprise clients pay on their terms, not yours. Invoice financing bridges this gap.
Enterprise Payment Terms
Fortune 500 and enterprise clients commonly pay Net 45-60. Some extend to Net 90. Your expenses cannot wait that long.
Media Float Burden
Agencies front media spend for clients, often 30-90 days before reimbursement. A $100K monthly client means $100K-$300K constantly floated.
Accounts Receivable Burden
Average marketing agency has 45-60 days of revenue tied up in unpaid invoices at any time.
Cash Flow Gap
Payroll, contractors, and tools are due now. Client payments arrive later. The gap creates constant pressure.
The Marketing Agency Payment Challenge
Delivered work tied up in slow-paying invoices creates operational strain.
Long Payment Terms
Enterprise clients often pay Net 45-60. Your expenses are immediate. The gap creates cash flow pressure.
Media Buy Reimbursement
You fronted media spend. Client reimbursement takes weeks while platforms require immediate payment.
Project Completion Gap
Project delivered, but final payment is weeks away. Contractor payments are due now.
Retainer Timing
Monthly retainer invoiced at month end but paid Net 30. That is 30+ days of float.
Growth Constraints
Cannot take on bigger clients because you cannot float the payment timing.
Cash Reserve Depletion
Using cash reserves to cover payment gaps depletes safety net.
