Tip Sheet

In this tip sheet, we will explore the ways in which innovation is transforming the order-to-cash process in the B2B space. From delivering invoices to applying cash, each step of the process has undergone a dedicated transformation that is bringing B2B transactions closer to achieving the seamless and effortless experience of their B2C counterparts.

However, one area has been conspicuously absent from this focus: collections.

Elevating the role of collections not only contributes to the financial health of a company, but also to the company’s overall customer experience, both critical pieces of attaining the world-class status needed to compete in today’s hotly contested business environment.
