A NEW free guide is being offered to East Lancashire companies which are struggling with late payments from customers.
The DTI-backed Better Payment Practice Group says its guide is primarily designed for small to medium-sized firms which tend to have more cash flow problems.
The booklet offers advice on how to check customers for credit, manage credit risk and collect payments promptly.
It also provides information on legislation that allows companies to charge interest on unpaid bills.
