Extension of Credit. I have found in my experience with delinquent debtors that, while some people do not care what we think of them for not paying their bills, many of t^em are sensitive to publicity and do not want their neighbors or friends to know that they are rated as "unde- sirable accounts." We operate our busi- ness on the assumption that anyone who buys flowers from us is honest and will pay for them; it is only after we have become convinced that a person is pro- crastinating in the matter of paying his bills beyond a reasonable length of time, that we refuse him credit altogether. Our establishment is located in a strictly residential section of the city; from this it follows that our patronage is largely with families, and our deal- ings are chiefly with the women of the household. We do only a small amount of transient business. It is my opinion that a retail florist located in a good residential section of the city can be more liberal in extending credit than the downtown florist whose business is chiefly with transients. To operate a flourishing retail flower store without incurring a certain per- centage of loss in collections is an im- possibility; therefore, a retail dealer should figure out the approximate amount of commissions he has to pay on his collections, add to that the actual amount of loss from uncollectable ac- counts and then add the sum obtained to the overhead operating expenses, be- cause loss on collections is an expense that cannot be avoided. I have been in business over thirty years, and long ago adopted the rule of giving credit to anyone without question, because ninety- five per cent of our business comes in over the telephone, and it is practically impossible to ascertain, at the moment, any definite cred
