When I founded Blue Net in 2022, my focus was on refining our mission, streamlining our organization, and modernizing systems to support our growth in the IT industry. However, as we transitioned, we struggled with financial alignment. Our internal bookkeeper did their best, but it became clear we needed more expertise. Next Level Now Fractional CFO joined us in Q1 2024, and their strategic insight made a huge difference. They guided us through the transition of systems, including QuickBooks, helping us navigate cash flow and long-term growth. Today, we have a leaner team, higher EBITA, and are well-positioned to scale—all thanks to Next Level Now and a system like HaloPSA.”

If your business is stuck in neutral, Brandi Bonds is the person you call to get the wheels moving again fast. We brought in Brandi as our EOS Implementer through Next Level Now, and to say she’s made an impact would be an understatement. She helped us bring clarity, structure, and accountability to our business when we were juggling 37 plates. Brandi doesn’t just talk EOS she lives it. She has a way of cutting through the noise, asking the hard questions, and driving results. If your thinking about implementing EOS please don’t do it yourself. Get an implementor. On top of EOS, we also worked with her team on fractional CFO services. What a game changer. We got true financial visibility and confidence, which let us make smarter, faster decisions that move the needle. No more financial guessing games. We had the right numbers and the right guidance. If you’re a business owner who feels like you're grinding it out without traction, or growing in chaos, do yourself a favor and bring in Brandi. Working with her was one of the best decisions we’ve made for our company. I highly recommend her and her company.
