| “How did you get started in billing?” |
| My first finance job was with one of the
big four…cleaning up messes. In corporate recovery the
biggest problem is often cash management. Somewhere along
the line people lose sight of a simple rule: Growing
sales also means growing cash. |
| “But cash isn’t everything, is it?” |
No.
Companies need to invest to grow. The problems start
when the return is less than it should be – its
too small or comes too late. US online companies
cash return on foreign traffic is too little…and
has been for a long time.
I was in charge of marketing for a company that offered a single
billing solution. Clients told me they expected a higher
return. That’s the reason for local billing solutions. |
|
| “Ok, so why haven’t they all done it already?” |
| There are two simple reasons for why they
may not have done it before.
Growth. The domestic market was growing until about 2005.
There are really no new surfers in North America today.
You don’t get CDs from AOL in the mail anymore—so there
is something good about maturity.
And broadband. People with broadband shop more and dial up
is on the way out around the world. So foreign visitors
have become better customers. And our clients are happier with
their return on investment. |
