honestly, I get 10 days to pay for most things I order from my franchisor.

this is not the case, at least not on my truck. for my business to operate correctly I rely on the guys that consistently make a regular weekly payment. so I typically give the best deals to the customers keep a balance on the truck and pay their agreed payment every week. basically what...
