Testimonial

 

We have had the privilege of working with Formulas First LLC for several years, and throughout this time, they have consistently exceeded our expectations. Tony demonstrates an exceptional level of expertise, dedication, and professionalism that is rare to find.


Our company’s most vital department has been in his hands, and I can confidently say that we wouldn’t trust it with anyone else. Formula First's solutions are not only reliable but also innovative, providing us with the confidence and stability we need to operate at our highest potential.


In particular, Tony has impressed me time and again with CFO-level leadership, especially when it comes to payroll management. In our business, with multiple pay structures and frequent monthly staffing changes, payroll can quickly become complex and overwhelming. This is where Formulas First has truly been a game-changer for us. 


Tony has brought clarity and precision to what was once a daunting process. He has personally helped us reconcile complex commission frameworks, smoothly manage rapid headcount changes, and ensure every single employee is paid accurately and on time. His deep experience and hands-on approach have made a significant difference for our company, giving me complete confidence that both our financial operations and our team are in excellent hands.


Formulas First’s mission to offer profit-focused CFO level financial and reporting solutions paired with their ability to streamline complexity and ensure payroll accuracy aligns perfectly with what we require. Tony and Trina’s deep experience, especially navigating commission-heavy pay structures and complex systems, has repeatedly proven to be a linchpin in our growth.
