Funding by Industry
Each industry has its own cash-flow shape — and a different right answer.
These guides walk through the funding products that actually fit each industry, with the math, the trade-offs, and what doesn't typically work. Serve Funding is channel-neutral and product-neutral — we shop the deal across 30+ lenders to find what fits, regardless of industry.
Staffing & Recruiting Agencies
You pay your people every Friday. Your customers pay you in 45 days. That math is the entire problem — and the entire reason invoice factoring exists.
Healthcare & Medical Practices
If you bill insurance, your funding options are smaller and more specialized than you'd guess. If you bill businesses, the standard playbook applies.
Manufacturing
When a manufacturer needs capital, the question is rarely 'which product?' — it's 'how do we stack three products against four collateral types into one facility?'
Government Contractors
The U.S. government is one of the best-credit customers on earth. It is also one of the slowest-paying. Specialized contract factoring is what bridges those two facts.
Construction & Contracting
Construction cash flow has three timing problems — billings, retainage, and equipment — and one funding stack that solves all three.
E-commerce & Direct-to-Consumer
No B2B invoices means no factoring. The real DTC question is whether your capital need lives in inventory, in customer acquisition spend, or in supplier production.
