Collaborate - Communicate

Day sales outstanding (DSO) also known as the average collection period is a good indication of an organization’s collection and accounts receivables strategy.

The longer your DSO ratio, the less capital and cash flow there are for your operations.

Pikolo Data Systems has released SalesQue. The SalesQue tm solution is an enterprise application designed specifically for broadcast organizations to streamline the collection of unpaid invoices. In the current economic times, organizations that want to succeed must maximize all resources including minimizing the time it takes to collect on past due invoices.

SalesQue creates a intuitive environment that assists sales, credit managers, discrepancy analysts, business managers and planners in communication and collaborating to quickly resolve discrepant invoices. SalesQue will quickly result in a positive return on investment (ROI).

For example: Suppose an organization generates annual advertising sales of $35,000,000 and it takes an average of 90 days to receive full payment. If the organization only improves their DSO by 15 days, this will result in a savings of $115,068 (assuming a interest rate of 8%).

With a 30 or 60 day improvement in DSO, the organization will realize a savings of $230,136 and $460,274, respectively. Imagine notifying your CFO, board or president that your generated almost half a million in savings simply by implementing a inexpensive solutions that makes your resources more efficient.
