Where we post, and what we post there

Four places, and they are not the same feed reposted four times. If you only want one, take the newsletter.

What we write about

One subject, from a few angles.

We are not going to post about productivity habits. Everything we publish comes back to the same thing: what it costs a small business to wait to get paid, and what an owner can actually do about it.

The research is the thing we are proudest of.

Most late payment statistics on the internet trace back to nothing. We went and checked, published what survived, and published the list of famous numbers we refuse to cite. That work is free and it does not ask you for an email address.

  • Cite the primary sourceThe original report, filing or regulation, linked. Not a blog citing a blog.
  • Say when we do not knowThere is no good measurement of how many US small businesses forecast cash at all. So we do not tell you.
  • Name our own interestWe sell a forecast. When a number we quote happens to help us sell one, we say so.

If you read one thing

Late payment data by industry. Every figure names its source, its year and its sample, and the bottom of the page lists the popular statistics we will not use and where they really came from.

The Float is the same material as a story, every two weeks, written by Christian and Brad.

Email

Nothing on this site asks for your address.

There is no newsletter form anywhere on arclite.ai. The Float lives on beehiiv, so when you subscribe you are handing your address to beehiiv rather than to a form we wrote. What we do with data generally is on the privacy page, and what Arclite reads out of a connected QuickBooks Online account is on the security page.

Or stop reading and try it.
