Nick McCulloch
Age: 28
Company: Nickknows.com
Nickknows.com has enjoyed 80% growth every quarter since its launch from McCulloch’s spare room in Bristol in 2003, and anticipates doubling its annual turnover to £1.2m this year. Despite being an online offering, McCulloch attributes much of the company’s success to its emphasis on offering excellent personal customer service and the ability to “pick up the phone and talk to someone”. McCulloch is busy ensuring the infrastructure and funding is in place for continued growth and expects to turnover £2.8m in 2005.
