Having
opted to do my own billing via standing order when I was part time, I
knew only too well that this was not going to be a viable option when
I went full-time. I was introduced to Gerard, and can honestly say
have never looked back.
Initially
I saw NEST as a billing company, nowadays billing is only a small
part of what NEST do for Stealth and for me personally. The company
is far more than just billing and had it not been for Joy, my
academies would not be running now! Like a lot of people new to
business, in the early days I got side tracked very easily.
Joy was
very quick to challenge me and after a bit of a drilling, made me
realise that if I concentrated on my core business, I would not need
to go off at tangents. For this, I am eternally grateful. Within 6
months of “that conversation” with NEST’S help and Joy and
Gerard’s faith in me, I had turned the business around. The
transition was so great that in 2007 we won NEST’s ‘Flying
Colours’ competition and the prize was an all expenses paid trip to
the Martial Arts Super Show in Las Vegas.
NEST
has been there for me every step of the way and I don’t see them as
a separate company, I see them as an extension of my company. It
really is a win/win partnership - the better I do, the better they do
- it’s that simple, Gerard’s advice, mentorship and guidance over
the years has been invaluable and NEST’s sector experience is
unmatched and with it they provide a wealth of experience and
knowledge.
Moving
forward, one of the things I am most excited about is working with
NEST on the technology development as this is an area that I am very
passionate about. We are often visited by other NEST clients as a
sort of show academy and it’s great to show them how the V3
software has made such an impact on our business.
The
