What Is Factoring and Who Is Jeff Callender? Factoring accounts receivable - selling and buying business invoices - is quickly becoming a popular means of financing for small companies. While it has been in existence for centuries and is widely used throughout Europe, many people in North America are only now learning about factoring and its benefits. Jeff Callender started his own factoring company in 1994. The next year he delivered his first book, Factoring Small Receivables (now titled How to Run a Small Factoring Business). Since then, his many books, articles, and ebooks have shown readers how to utilize factoring in their businesses to improve cash flow and enable growth. Others, after reading his works, have chosen to become factors themselves. Still others, hired by factoring companies, have been given his books and ebooks as required reading. The Small Factor Series The Small Factor Series includes five titles, each of which builds on the previous book (though they can be purchased and enjoyed separately as well). All are available from Amazon in paperback and the Kindle Store. The books include: 1. Factoring Wisdom: A Preview of Buying Receivables 2. Fundamentals for Factors 3. How to Run a Small Factoring Business 4. Factoring Case Studies (2nd Edition) 5. Marketing Methods for Small Factors & Brokers Fundamentals for Factors This volume, Fundamentals for Factors, asks incisive questions and lays a solid foundation for those thinking about becoming factors. While factoring provides handsome investment returns, not everyone should become a factor. This book helps the reader decide if factoring is a good match for his/her circumstances, tolerance for risk, and personal goals and requirements for starting a business. Previously published under the title Factoring Fundamentals, the new title clarifies its audience and provides updated material. Fundamentals for Factors covers the basics would-be factors must know: - What factoring is, how it works, and what types of businesses can and cannot use it. - How it helps business owners stabilize cash flow and grow their companies. - Why business owners choose to factor despite its higher cost than traditional loans. - Why the high returns factors earn are consistent, dependable, and determined primarily the factor. - How much capital you need to start a factoring business. - Four common risks every factor faces, plus two others you don't expect. - Specific steps, many of which cost nothing, a factor can and must take to minimize these risks. - One simple technique that will make a catastrophic loss impossible. - Six types of receivables most newcomers should avoid, and why. From the Author... The Small Factor Series is based on two decades I've spent working in the factoring world. I wrote the books to help those entering the industry get it right the first time. Factoring offers business funding to vast numbers of small business owners who often have never heard of it and who are unable to obtain other financing. I want readers avoid mistakes most small factors make. My books help entrepreneurial investors recognize the risks in factoring, and provide common sense practices to minimize risk and maximize profits. They also introduce factoring to small business owners who will benefit from this alternative financing, instead of just trying to obtain (often unsuccessfully) ordinary bank loans. Fundamentals for Factors not only provides basic information about what factoring is and how it works; its purpose is to enable the reader to make an informed decision as to whether becoming a factor is a good choice for his/her life. -Jeff Callender

This book explores the roles in which volunteered and professional information play within neogeography from a human factors perspective. The unique advantages of each information type are considered alongside how they may be utilised to create products and services delivering highly functional, efficient and satisfying experiences to their users. The overall aim of this book is to address the issue of how Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) can be combined with Professional Geographic Information (PGI) to satisfy the information search requirements of consumer-users via highly usable mashups. Firstly, this required the development of an understanding of the way different users perceive VGI and PGI in terms of its benefits to their activities and information needs. Secondly, the benefits that VGI may bring to the user experience of a mashup (which cannot be attained through the use of PGI) needed to be understood. In order to achieve this, a user centred design perspective was implemented throughout the research.

This book provides a compact overview of the topic of change management. It contains a comprehensible introduction to the basics and techniques of organizational change and provides practical information on the most important success factors. The reading is suitable for practitioners as well as for courses at colleges and universities. Topics such as stakeholder analysis, the use of the Social Intranet for communication and idea generation or intrapreneurship programs and a whole range of new case studies complete this comprehensive work. This book is a translation of the original German 3rd edition Change Management by Thomas Lauer, published by Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature in 2019. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.

This book is a core introductory text to the subject of toxicology and the use of toxicological information for risk assessment by chemists. Increasingly, chemists are being required by law to advise on the safe handling of chemicals. Few chemists, however, have been trained in toxicology, and the subject is often not covered in a chemistry degree curriculum. It is to address this problem that this book has been written. Fundamental Toxicology for Chemists contains a proposed curriculum for teaching toxicology to chemists, which gives a firm grounding in the basics. With this book as a guide, lecturers will be able to design courses that cover all their students needs. In addition, students in all areas of chemistry will find it invaluable. Fundamental Toxicology for Chemists offers a unique assessment of the subject specifically for chemists. It is both comprehensible and fully comprehensive, covering developing areas such as reproduction, behavioural and ecological toxicology. The book has been approved by the IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemists) committees on toxicology and the teaching of chemistry. It has a comprehensive index and an extensive glossary of terms, and will have lasting value to all chemists as a reference, and a text book.
