Select Signing

I have worked for about 2 years for this company and they have always been late but have never failed to pay. Some invoices have gone out to 60 days and I requested payment and they responded within a few days. I'm sure that their cash flow is slow and they too have overhead. I respect that because I have been a businessman all my life and those things happen. I'm sure as their income increases that they will try to stay within the 45 day pay cycle. I for one will do work for them. If anyone out there has any other input, please respond.

If you were a true businessman, you'd realize that EVERY company has overhead. To use that as an excuse for ridiculously slow payment is asinine.

If they haven't worked out their cash flow problems within the 2 years you've been working for them, then there are no problems, this is just the way they operate.

Anybody who is willingly allowing a company to take 60 days to pay them on a regular basis is a fool. Take a little more pride in your business and work only for the companies that respect you and pay you in a timely manner.

You Hit it Right on the Nail CaliNotary...

Totally agree with you.

To have to wait 60 days for payment is ridiculous!

Not all of their payments have been 60 days but unlike some companies, they do pay. Most were 30 to 45 days. How many companies have you owned? I did not post this message to give them business but to show that if you can wait 45 days or more, they do pay. I work for many good companies and try to treat them all the same. As I said before, if you have something to post about this company, do so. How long I am willing to wait for my money is my business.

Makes me wonder why you don't post this under the topic for First Choice SS slow pay, but rather chose Select Signing exclusively.

No, what you said before was "If anyone out there has any other input, please respond.". So I gave my input. You made it everyone's business when you decided to post on this board.

And if you want to wait 2 months to be paid for work that the signing service probably gets paid for within 2 weeks, be my guest. I still think you're a fool for doing so.

I have been a fool before, that's why I'm with my second wife now.
