In the first of Blue Book Services’ “Care in Crisis” videos, Jeff Lair, Blue Book’s Marketing Director with over 20 years’ experience in sales, marketing, and operations, overviews the powerful credit rating and financial tools included in Blue Book’s Business Reports with Greg Johnson, Director of Media Development.
A business report is critical to check a company’s story – whether they’re a new customer or well established one – for comprehensive information on principals, credit worth estimate, current and historical trade practices rating, and average days to pay as well as a Blue Book predictive store.
Experience these powerful tools included in a report that provide the tools to manage business risk:
- Historical and Current Rating Information (Credit Worth Estimate, Trade Practices Rating, Pay Description, Average Days to Pay, Financial Ratios)
- Blue Book Predictive Score (For produce buying companies, a score predicts the likelihood a company will be delinquent or default on payment in the next 12 months)
- Principal Background Information
- Experian Business Data
- Claims filed with Blue Book Services
Business reports are included with a membership.
