thames valley sme growth index From strength to strength
Wilson Partners are sponsoring this year’s Thames Valley Growth 100 index and there’s no shortage of experience in their business when it comes to judging the winners.
If there’s one company in the Thames Valley that knows about growth, it’s Wilson Partners. Not only have they experienced consistent, double digit, year on year growth since starting up from scratch 11 years ago, they now boast a diverse team of over 30 and with some of the most exciting businesses in the region on their books.
Allan Wilson, Founder and Director at Wilson Partners says “We are proud to be sponsoring these awards as they recognise the talent, innovation and ambition we have in the Thames Valley”.
“The last couple of years have seen so much uncertainty with Brexit amongst other things, yet the Thames Valley continues to flourish with existing businesses and start-ups continuing to post strong growth, despite the unpredictable environment that surrounds them”
Beyond accounting A key to Wilson Partners’ own success has been their commitment to offer business services and added value far beyond the day to day accounting which is becoming largely commoditised. Having established a strong advisory offering, state of the art cloud accounting systems and a dedicated Tax Team and Corporate Finance Team, you can start, grow, fund and sell your business all with the help of the team at Wilson Partners.
Allan continues, “We work with some really great businesses and get to experience some powerful insights along the way which puts us in an informed position when it comes to judging an award like this – as we know what to look for and how high the bar is set”.
Working with SMEs is a daily source of energy and inspiration for the team at Wilson Partners. So much so, that they decided to put their expertise to good use and develop a business improvement tool with a focus on strategy for growth. Aptly named
ON.TRAC, it is an interactive tool providing key insights to help businesses to effectively prioritise their objectives, get on track with their strategy and achieve their goals.
THE BUSINESS MAGAZINE – MARCH/APRIL 2019
Insight is everything - the Corporate Finance Team at Wilson Partners.
“There’s no magic wand when it comes to running a business, but we certainly know that focusing on each of the key areas and having a plan in place are vital to help you achieve success.
ON.TRAC focuses on the 7 key focus areas of a business – Strategy & Leadership, Marketing, Sales, Operations, People, Tech and Finance & Legal. Working with boards and management teams,
ON.TRAC helps businesses devise a strategy that is based on real information and insight – so that aspirations are aligned with reality”.
With so much commercial expertise in the business alongside their very own tool to help bring strategy to life and light the touch paper for business growth, Wilson Partners are well positioned to judge who comes out on top in the Thames Valley Growth awards.
Graham Stead of IT firm CMI, who built and sold his business through Wilson Partners says, “I couldn’t think of a firm better placed to judge a set of awards based around growth and success. They have gained expert knowledge across the whole SME sector in the Thames Valley and themselves are a valuable asset to local businesses – good luck to all those who enter”.
ON.TRAC by Wilson Partners is a unique and clever tool designed using decades of commercial insight across 1,000s of businesses to provide a platform to assess your objectives, take action and ultimately achieve your goals.
