Got a Big Order But Need Help Funding It?
One of the more common conversations I have with NZ businesses is around growth creating pressure.
A business lands a solid order which should be a win but then the question becomes, How do we actually fund this without putting pressure on cashflow?
Where the Challenge Sits
From what I see, it usually comes down to timing:
Suppliers need to be paid upfront
Customers pay on terms
Cashflow sits in the middle
So even profitable work can create stress if it’s not structured properly.
What I See Businesses Try First
Most businesses start with the obvious:
Sending invoices earlier
Following up more consistently
Tightening payment terms
All of these help but in reality, they only go so far.
Because if your customer pays in 60 days they’re probably still going to pay in 60 days.
How I Help Businesses Approach This
This is where I spend most of my time.
I specialise in helping businesses access and structure:
Purchase order finance
Import finance
Export finance
Not every deal needs funding but when it does, it’s about setting it up in a way that lets the business move forward without unnecessary pressure.
What This Unlocks
When structured properly, it allows businesses to:
Take on larger orders with confidence
Pay suppliers without stretching cashflow
Keep momentum without slowing down
From what I see, it’s often the difference between:
“We can’t take this on”
and
“Let’s make this work”
It’s Not Just About Funding
The real value isn’t just access to capital it’s understanding how everything fits together.
Often purchase order finance connects with:
Invoice finance on the back end
Import finance if goods are coming from overseas
That full picture is what keeps things running smoothly.
