Billing Promptly - Some Humor
Wilson Ng, who is the CEO of a technology company in the Philippines, is now writing a regular business comic strip along with two of his employees. The comics are called It’s NGenius and they are sponsored by the NGenius chain of computer stores. The main character is Engy, the General Manager who “reads a lot of management books.”
I thought you’d get a kick out of this comic strip, which points out the importance of prompt billings in order to get paid faster. Of course, just don’t make the same Freudian slip as the comic strip character makes.

You could get data on how quick you get paid in different countries if you read Grant Thornton’s International Business Report. In Phillipines you get paid after 31 days on average. In the U.S.A 10 days later. If you are doing business with Greece, you have to wait 83 days before you get paid.

Thanks, Martin. I guess you have to get those bills out first to get paid. Just don’t “kill” your customers.
