Despite the advantages that net 30 can provide, there are some disadvantages to consider before you offer these payment terms to your customers:

• You’ll need more working capital. You won’t recoup the cost of producing a product until 30 days after you’ve sold it.
• Unpredictable cash flow. When people take you up on your net 30 offer, you trust that they’ll pay within 30 days.
• You may need to manually approve net 30 requests.
• You’ll need to remind people of upcoming payments.
