Membership for young entrepreneurs
Starting a business is a daily challenge. Many important measures have to be put on the track, above all the acquisition of new customers.
Especially in the difficult development phase, it is important to have a reliable partner by your side. Knowing whether a new business partner is solvent can save you a lot of trouble. Quick action in the event of late payment is also essential in order not to jeopardize the young company's cash flow.
We support you
- when your customers default in payment
- during new customer acquisition by providing credit-screened marketing data
- with credit reports on your business partners
- with free legal advice services
- with the campaign for young entrepreneurs: Free Membership until 2024
