As a Senior Executive you’re always looking for ways to improve your bottom line and create a more sustainable and socially responsible organisation. One strategy that can help you achieve both of these goals is early supplier payments. By paying your suppliers early, you can achieve cost savings, improve your reputation, and create social value. And with Saltare, a financial technology platform that facilitates early payments to suppliers, achieving these benefits has never been easier.

Cost Savings

One of the most significant benefits of early supplier payments is cost savings. Many suppliers offer discounts for early payments, which can add up to significant savings for your business over time. By using Saltare to facilitate early payments, you can take advantage of these discounts without having to manage payments manually.

Improved Reputation and Social Value

Early supplier payments can also help to improve your organisation’s reputation and create social value. When you pay your suppliers promptly, they are more likely to view your organization as a reliable and trustworthy partner, which can lead to improved collaboration and more favorable terms in the future. Additionally, early payments can help to support the sustainability of your suppliers’ businesses, contributing to a more sustainable and socially responsible business ecosystem.

Operational Efficiency

In addition to cost savings and improved reputation, early supplier payments can also improve your operational efficiency. By using Saltare to manage your supplier payments, you can simplify your payment processes and reduce the workload associated with managing payments manually. This can help to free up your time and resources, allowing you to focus on other critical areas of your business.

Real-Time Data Insights

Saltare’s platform also offers real-time data insights that can help you make informed decisions about your supplier relationships. By analysing data related to your supplier payments, you can identify areas for improvement, such as suppliers who consistently require early payments or who don’t offer discounts for early payments. This can help you to optimise your supplier relationships and achieve even greater cost savings over time.

In this episode, our CEO Ant Persse, talks to Matt Blakeley, the Network Development Manager of the Smart Manufacturing Alliance (SMA) about how we’re supporting SMEs cashflow by incentivising large buying organisations to offer early payments throughout their supply chains to reduce late payments and keep cash flowing between businesses.

It is estimated that 82% of businesses fail not because of lack of profit, but through lack of cash. Yet, studies suggest UK SMEs are currently waiting on almost £200bn tied up in unpaid invoices.

Saltare is proud to be one of the Smart Manufacturing Alliance’s partners.

We recently spoke to Liz Barclay, the current Small Business Commissioner – a post created to help small businesses secure the payments owed to them and to galvanise UK businesses behind a new culture of prompt and fair payment.

During the conversation we discussed the impact of poor payment practices on UK small and micro businesses, and how the uncertainty of payment affects all elements of their enterprise including how they manage their cashflow, make decisions on recruitment & investment and importantly, the mental heath impact.

We also discussed how larger businesses can support small and micro businesses by employing good payment practices. And the benefits that has on creating a sustainable supply chain.

Our CEO, Anthony Persse and our NED, Philip King spoke to Mark Hart, Deputy Director of the Enterprise Research Centre (UK) on the ‘Exploring Enterprise’ podcast. The podcast, titled ‘Changing the late payment culture’ is a topic very close to our mission and one that we are very passionate about.

In this snippet our CEO Anthony Persse discusses how uncertainty around payments causes huge amounts of stress and anxiety to suppliers.
