What Level Group Ltd. does

Level Group Ltd. is a privately held music and entertainment business management firm founded in 2014 by Mark Zelasko in New York City. The firm delivers comprehensive financial and back-office services to high-profile entertainment industry clients — including artists, producers, record labels, publishers, merchandise companies, and talent agencies — through a six-module service platform: Full Service Business Management (day-to-day accounting, bookkeeping, audit support, entity management, cash flow analysis), Tour Services (budget analysis, promoter/agent coordination, nightly settlement tracking, withholding tax reduction, insurance placement), Royalty Services (income tracking, distribution, audit examinations, forecasting, catalog valuation), Tax Services (corporate and individual filings, international tax strategy, corporate valuation), Personal Financial Planning (bookkeeping, bill pay, wealth and retirement planning, insurance enrollment), and Payroll Services (employee/contractor payment processing, payroll tax filings, W-2 processing).

Each client is assigned a dedicated Account Manager supported by specialized teams across the six verticals, delivered by a staff of over 90 professionals operating from offices in New York City and Nashville. The firm operates as a pure professional services business with no disclosed technology platform, no software product, no API surface, and no AI capabilities described in available materials. Revenue is generated through per-engagement professional service fees; pricing is not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales, with services sold directly to entertainment industry clients without intermediary distribution. The company appears founder-owned, with no disclosed institutional investors, parent company, funding rounds, or acquisitions. Its distribution is limited to direct client engagement, and its only documented marketing channel is a LinkedIn company page used primarily for recruitment and brand visibility rather than demand generation.

Level Group has no disclosed subsidiaries, partnerships, awards, certifications, patents, regulatory actions, or M&A activity. Its sole documented structural move is the expansion from New York City into Nashville, where the firm has concentrated the bulk of its professional headcount.
