Our Subscribers Say...

I think Credit Today is fantastic. You cover many practical topics in the credit field that I use regularly. Just one recent example—a conversation on the ListServ about preferential payments—gave me tips that I used in an actual case. The specific information I picked up from this one discussion saved me $10,000, enough to cover my membership for many years!
- Steve Savino
Manager of Credit & Collections, ASSA Abloy Americas Division, New Haven, CT

Credit Today's Resource Directory and their online e-mail forum (ListServ) provide information on almost any credit-related topic you can think of. It is a great way to exchange information with other credit professionals. As the saying goes, "You don't know what you don't know."
- Scott Goen, Credit Manager, Big Lots Stores, Inc., Wholesale Division

"We've recently started using the ListServ tool within Credit Today. This is phenomenal and powerful forum for gaining immediate feedback, ideas, and suggestions, relative to any credit topic under the sun, all in a real-time e-mail format."
-Javier Vela, Senior Credit Manager, Global Credit Services, JDA Software Group Inc.

"Being a part of the Credit Today online community is like having the expertise of hundreds of credit managers at your fingertips. These credit execs are willing to help you solve topical business issues as they arise. In the current environment of ever increasing competing priorities which reduce our opportunities to meet peers out of the office face-to-face, this is the most valuable tool you can have on your desktop! It's important that we have a mechanism to reach out to our counterparts quickly to exchange knowledge as well as to stay on top of industry trends."
- Victoria Artis, Director of Customer Financial Services, Pfizer, Inc.

"Over the last 10 years I've seen Credit Today evolve from a monthly credit publication into a quality source of information and guidance for the B2B credit community. The website, with its user friendly form downloads, will take you from examples of new account credit applications to bankruptcy forms and everything in between.

The Credit Today ListServ has become the pre-imminent online forum, providing an opportunity for discussion and comments (and occasional humor) from an impressive list of credit professionals."
David Dungan, Director of Credit
Justin Brands, Inc. (A Berkshire Hathaway company)
Fort Worth, Texas

"There are numerous credit periodicals available to the credit professional today. How good is Credit Today? Is it relevant? I always have to read it late, or online because my credit analysts want to read it the minute it comes in. When my staff wants to read a publication before I have a chance to read it then something is working in that publication. We have cancelled our other subscriptions. When you have the best you do not need the rest."
Ron Woods
Corporate Credit Manager-World Wide
Thales Navigation, Inc.

"The newsletter, coupled with the website and the ListServ, are to us, more valuable than any other credit publication, bar none. I try to use at least one article out of each newsletter for departmental training/discussion sessions."
D. Mark Constantine
Corporate Credit Mgr
Fulton Paper Company

"I love Credit Today and read every issue cover to cover. For me, the greatest perk of a subscription is ListServ. I believe Credit Today's ListServ members may be the most knowledgeable Credit brain trust in existence today. I have saved and categorized hundreds of contributions on a wide variety of topics which I refer to often. It's an easy and cost effective way to network and learn."

Business Credit ProSM gives small businesses the freedom to research business backgrounds and credit scores at a low price

Costa Mesa, Calif., Sept. 22, 2009 -- Experian®, a global information services company, today announced Business Credit ProSM, a new online subscription plan that provides instant access to multiple business credit reports at a low price. Available exclusively through SmartBusinessReports.com®, this new plan provides small-business professionals with information on all types of businesses, helping them assess business credibility and risk in order to make better decisions.

"In a recent Experian study, we found that while small businesses were affected by the economic downturn, existing risk-assessment methods, such as credit reports and scores, have proved remarkably accurate in identifying the good from potentially 'bad' accounts," said Allen Anderson, president, Experian's Business Information Services. "We designed Business Credit Pro to help small-business owners by providing them with access to multiple reports at a low price point, helping them identify the pockets of opportunity and avoid potentially problematic accounts."

Business Credit Pro provides access to Experian's standard CreditScoreSM reports for a fee of $150 for up to 100 reports per month with no long-term commitment or annual contract. These reports normally retail at $29.95 if purchased individually. The CreditScore report and other service options offered through SmartBusinessReports.com are powered by Experian's extensive commercial database, which includes the most thorough and accurate small-business information available. SmartBusinessReports.com also offers small-business owners the option to buy Business Credit AdvantageSM, a commercial credit monitoring plan enabling them to proactively monitor changes to their own business credit profile.
