How to Use Receivables Aging to Negotiate Better Supplier Terms

In episode 37 of Cash Flow Conversations, Lucas and Luna break down a practical strategy that many small business owners overlook: using your own receivables aging report as leverage in supplier negotiations. Instead of just chasing late payers passively, Lucas explains how to turn overdue receivables into a concrete request—like extended net terms or volume discounts—that improves working capital on both sides. They walk through a real example involving a mid-sized bakery supplier, showing exactly how to frame the conversation, what data to bring, and why suppliers often say yes. The episode also covers common mistakes, like blurring the line between negotiation and complaint, and how to handle pushback. By the end, listeners will have a clear script they can adapt for their next supplier call. #ReceivablesAging #SupplierNegotiation #WorkingCapital #SmallBusiness #CashFlow #PaymentTerms #B2BNegotiation #BusinessFinance #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LucasAndLuna #SupplierRelations #NetTerms #VolumeDiscounts #AgingReport #CashConversionCycle #TradeCredit #FinanceTips Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
