Dreadful. They took my money for a challenge. Advertised there is no activation fee. But I found out before I even started it there is a fee. Asked for a full refund and they just keep blowing me off... See more

Awesome

Salvatore Ottomanelli did a great job through-out the process, which made my loan easy and simple. Salvatore communicated the required information that helped me to understand the necessary information needed to execute the process in a timely fashion. I look forward to extending my business relationship and needs with Salvatore and NLF in the near future.

A small business was treated like a large business

I have to share what a wonderful experience & service I received from Next Level Funding. Matthew Gustavson worked quickly & efficiently to help me with a small business loan. For years, most banks/funding companies wouldn't even consider to help me. However, working with Matthew, it took less than 2 days to make everything happen. I will definitely tell my other small business owner friends about Matthew and Next Level Funding. It was truly a pleasure working with him and will use their services again, if it's ever necessary!!

The only one able to help us out after months of searching.

My sister and I have spent two months looking for someone to help connect us to the capital or loan we needed to pay off sale's tax, and I thought we were never going to find the assistance we desperately needed. Most agents or representatives we talked to said it would be no problem and that we would have the funds we needed in a matter of days. Time and again they ended up calling back to say they couldn't get us what we needed, and we were tired of false promises and hearing the same thing from everyone we contacted.

At first, I thought we were going to hear the same thing from Nick, but when he said he would do his best to get us a loan, he made good on his word and was truthful about our chances as well as prompt about correspondence and forthright about the terms we could expect in our situation. We came prepared to make steep payments and we expected any capital coming our way to have an agressive repayment plan, but it was refreshing for a capital lending representative to also admit that and still try to do what he could to negotiate in our favor and find us enough capital for the agreement to be worth the trouble.

What I appreciated the most was his candid yet professional attitude and his dedication to getting us what we needed when it probably would have been easier to just tell us once again that we didn't quite meet the lending qualifications so that he could pursue an easier customer with better options.

Thank you, Nick, for not dropping us for an easier customer with better credit. It made all the difference and it's going to keep our cafe in business.

Great Experience with Next Level Funding

Working with Next Level Funding has been a great experience. I worked closely with Salvatore Ottomanelli who was great. His communication was excellent and extremely responsive. He worked with me through the whole process until the day we were funded. I would be happy to work with Salvatore again and would be happy to recommend him and his services. In addition, I started the process with Gaetano DAprile in sales and he was great as well. He gave me the confidence to move forward with the process.

Definely a 5 star company in our book.

With Matt Muratore as our loan officer this process could not have been easier. He literally held our hand for the entire process, not an easy task. When your company is at its peak work performance with ongoing jobs in all directions and your cash flow is tight I would 100% recommend this company. Fast easy service. Oh and if you can ask for Matt. I swear the man has the patience of Job.
Thank You

Our Experience with Next Level

It took us only a few business days from application through underwriting to funding. The underwriting process was efficient and relatively painless. We were approved for twice as much as we initially requested, but we chose to borrow the lesser amount.

I would recommend Next Level as an excellent source for non traditional borrowing.

HELPED SAVE MY COMPANY

Simply cannot say enough good things about my experience. I was out of options. Traditional, and even less traditional options, were no longer available. We had state and federal liens (all with payment plans), and a debt to equity ratio that no one wanted to touch. Over the past 2-3 years I had exhausted all personal options, friends, relatives, and all types of lending options.
I stumbled onto next level funding just by chance. At first I thought they were simply interested in credit card transactions (which I do not have), but as I read more, I saw that they also provided A/R financing, but NOT FACTORING.
I called and talked to Scott, from there we worked together, eventually involving John and Cory. I was on a very tight timetable and had to have funds in the bank within 4 days. The 3 of them understood the urgency and they quickly worked together and with me, exchanging needed information back and forth, never letting time slip past, and always finding ways to expedite the process.
The technology they used combined with a strong personal touch was very unique in today's business world. Even though I knew each of them had many other cases they were handling, I felt like I was their only customer during that time.
There is no doubt that this type of financing, and the speed in which it operates, is the way of the future. I do not see how traditional means could ever compete due to all the regulations, etc...
With that said, I am still a BIG BELIEVER in personal relationships. As mentioned before, the speed and technology, as well as perhaps the "new" means of financing, would NOT have allowed me to achieve my 4 day turnaround, and be a BIG part of saving my company, had it not been for the personal involvement of Scott, John, and Cory. Simply wonderful people.....that get it.

Great experience with Next Level Funding

Having been only in business for one year and not having the traditional business assets, we were challenged to receive any type of loan from a traditional lender. Next Level Funding really took the time to understand the opportunity we had with home entertainment. Nick Omanoff took a personal interest in our business, did the research, and realized our potential. Look forward to a long-term relationship with Next Level Funding.

"BLUE-RIBBON" SERVICE

Salvatore "Sal" was most excellent; he worked with tenacity to ensure that our loan was secured and delivered in a timely manner. There should be a choice of "infinite stars" to rate him and his company.

Thank you, Next Level Funding for a job well done.

Professionals on every level

As a small business owner, it is impossible to work with anyone but "On Deck" and "Next Level Funding" when it comes to working capital. They are professional and treat you with the upmost respect throughout the entire process. I am very thankful. Now I can keep moving my business forward....

I was hesitant, but now very pleased!

My company needed a boost to get some marketing plans executed and I didn't want to wait for my sales pipeline to come in, so I searched a solution that made sense for my company and found Matt Muratore at Next Level Funding. I was very impressed that they offered a make sense loan against deposits that I provided. I received the loan at a very fair rate and term and now we are postioned to really dominate in 2015 earlier rather than later!
Next Level Funding was the perfect answer for my company needs! Thank you!
