LET US HELP YOU NEGOTIATE A WIN-WIN OUTCOME.

Purchasing a business requires a certain level of effort but selling one is on the Oppenheimer scale. I have done both with Benchmark, and they were there every step of the way, with Maurice being the most patient, gentlemanly and experienced star of the process. However, he was not alone, with support from Ashlee, and even Bruce would get involved when things became tricky. All in all, an amazing team whom I would recommend to anyone who is thinking of getting into or out of a business. - Gordon Kappelhoff

Mel made selling my salon smooth and stress-free. Professional, reliable, and genuinely cared about getting the best outcome. Grateful for the support through the entire process.

Sam & Caitlin , 11 Aug 2020 Thanks, Nikki, for taking care of me through this very tricky journey of buying a hair & Beauty business in the middle of Covid-19. We are not sure how I would have managed without your help and guidance. Here we are today the proud owners of a fabulous business and it was you that made that happen for us. It was a pleasure to work with you and I look forward to our next venture together.

From start to finish. Kurt made us feel like our business was the only business he cared about. He worked with us to really understand our business and how he could best find a suitable buyer. He then ensured we got the best price and waled us through the whole process professionally and diligently.

Making the decision to sell a business can be a daunting exercise in its own right, i.e., what is my business worth, How will I market the business, What vehicles will I use to achieve the best outcome, Who and what is my market, How do I distinguish between a legitimate buyer and tyre kickers (whom there will be an overabundance of), What details do I need to provide, How do I protect the integrity of my business during this process and so on? For a fleeting moment, we thought that marrying our business up with a suitable buyer was something within our capability. If only it was that simple. We then decided to seek out a Broker/Agent who would partner with us to achieve our goal of selling our business. A specialist whom would possess; an intimate understanding of our industry had a track record of selling similar businesses had a clear understanding of how to effectively promote our business, (in collaboration with us)set a fair asking price that would create both buyer interest and meet an outcome that would satisfy our expectations and importantly, be empathetic and possess exceptional listening skills After considerable research, we found such a specialist who met our brief perfectly; Jacob Reeson (Service Station Specialist) from Benchmark Business. Our decision to engage Jacob was quickly credentialed during our 1st ‘Face to Face’ meeting. Jacob is unbelievably professional on every level. Jacob’s plan of how we could achieve a favourable outcome was highly detailed, well thought out and above all collaborative. From the outset, we had a roadmap of how the process would unfold. Thanks to Jacob’s tenacity, knowledge and focus he was able to engage a number of interested parties which resulted in a contract and eventual sale, achieving a sale price reflective of the business value. Jacob continued to manage the process right through to settlement. He was present at the site during settlement to ensure the handover was seamless. Benchmark Business and Jacob Reeson are representative of a well-oiled, highly ethical and professional operation. I would most definitely recommend to any person or organisation considering selling their business to give Benchmark Business a call. Jeff and Elaine Martin

Mick navigated methodically through the sale of our business. He was professional, willing and in control of the process. Mick is a nice guy who is very easy to work with and kept us in the picture throughout the full 6 month process.
