Which web hosting copanies offer net terms to business customers?
johnmba asked:
How can all IT companies get away with billing customers in advance? When our company starts vendors relationships with companies such as Loews, Staples, ULINE, PG&E, AT&T, etc. we are billed monthly with a small setup fee. Could you imagine if your phone company asked for one year worth of fees up front before even considering you as a customer? When is an entrepreneur going to open up a real web hosting company that treats customers right with net 30 terms and helps them by reporting to D&B??? Another example of IT and Finance NOT getting along… Isn’t the goal to help the customer anyway???
