Buyers who treat payment and credit terms as a commercial discipline rather than an afterthought tend to hold margin for longer.
Seasonality interacts with payment and credit terms more than most forecasts allow for, so a rolling review beats an annual one.
Why payment and credit terms matters on the Vibe GT
