This Guest Post is from Will Donovan of Paystream Advisors of USA I spent a little while today discussing web-based auto-enrollment payments in the credit and collections industry, as well as what we call the “Payment Tsar” and the “Payment Quotient.” While I was doing so, it occured to me the extent to which electronic financial tools for the individual consumer are changing the nature of expectations and deliverables in corporate financial process optimization. For example, EIPP has been around, but hasn’t entirely taken off. The technology has obvious advantages, but even major players like Ariba and OB10 don’t exactly…

As you can imagine, I get to know quite a number of start up and early stage EIPP (and related) vendors, both here and across the pond. At the same time, I have also attracted a number of potential investors and acquirers seeking startup and early stage EIPP vendors. In these cases, with permission from both parties, I am able to make the necessary introductions. More recently, due to my involvement in the technology startups through OpenCoffee, NW StartUp 2.0 and Mashup Manchester, the requests from investor community have broaden to include telecom companies. Are you a startup or early…

This Guest Post is from Will Donovan of Paystream Advisors of USA So! First post on Manoj’s blog and I have to be honest with you, it will have little to do with EIPP, except a little tangentially. I’ll leave the expertise to the expert himself, and spend my time here at manojwaneera.com waxing about ePayables and on-line proliferation of solid knowledge on financial automation. Manoj’s most recent project, “edocr” is like a dream come true for those of us who publish content both casually and professionally (and in between). Likewise, the blogging platform itself, whether via a hosted solution…
