The Ledger

In our 2020 'year-end' episode of the Ledger, Dancerace CEO Elliot is joined by John Brechist – founder of Roundwindow Consultancy and the World of Open Account online community.

In our wide-ranging chat - which lasts around 50 minutes and was recorded in November - John challenges the notion that slower economies means higher volumes of receivables lending.  Backed by 15 years of research, John's perspective is a sharp and important wake-up call for receivables lenders of all types.

Along the way, we also discuss the difference between today and 2008, liquidity bubbles, zombie businesses and John's top five factors for lenders reviewing their online experience.

Enjoy!
