6 months in and we employ our first member of staff, today Emma Parker is our General Manager.

A year under our belt and we report a healthy turnover of £600k.

An opportunity is established online and we launch tailoredinsurance.com, we wanted to strengthen and identify with our bespoke insurance solutions.

With growth in mind we move to larger premises and remain highly active in the HNW arena. We continue to progress the company and secure numerous high profile clients including international football stars, film & TV personalities, corporate leaders and entrepreneurs.

Our successes continue and we file a turnover of £1.9 million.

We secure a £1 million deal to provide 'opt out' company car insurance solutions for Opticar whose clients included Hutchinson 3G and Morgan Est.
