About the Webinar
The relationship between credit managers and their sales departments plays an important role in the outcome of AR credit & collections. How can these two departments help facilitate sales growth? What do you do if there’s a demand for increased sales, but insufficient customer financial data to support a sale? How can the sale be facilitated?
Join Ascend’s Syed Ghani, a highly experienced credit manager in U.S., and Virgile Rouyer, a skilled sales and commercial manager in Belgium, as they discuss how they each have a role in their company’s growth. Among the topics to be discussed:
- Developing good communications to aid credit and sales
- Resolving billing disputes
- How to deal with high-risk accounts through collaboration
- Blocked orders
- Customer repayment plans
- Country risk
