Imagine if...
Instead of just creating your accounts based on the numbers in front of them, what if your accountant understood your business, how you made profit, and what your goals were... so they could optimise your accounts to suit, saving you time, money and frustration.
Before engaging with Next Level Business we had had a bumpy period. Since engaging we have recovered our form and our business has gone from strength to strength, diversifying into other industries outside Formula 1 and improving both our profitability and cash position as well as implementing plans to save us a small fortune in tax. We are ambitious for our business and we have found a partner in Next Level Business to help us achieve our ambition
"In our first year working with Next Level Business we grew our sales 10 fold from the previous year.
Shortly after this they helped us succeed in winning investment in the famous Dragons Den and since then we have gone on to become a multi-million pound turnover business operating in over 10 countries.
I can safely say that we wouldn’t have been as successful as we have been without our relationship with Next Level Business who have added a significant amount of value to our business."
