"A fantastic broker to deal with. I was delighted when I first spoke to John as many other brokers would not give me the time of day when I enquired.

"We initially tried to buy a business which in the end the seller didn’t want to sell, we thought this was crazy but John referred us onto a new one that came on the market and this one worked out to be a better fit. It was an absolute delight in chatting to John during our salon hunt and he guided us so professionally throughout the entire time and now my partner has her dream salon. Thanks again and good luck with the cricket." - James Polland | 11 Sep 2019 John really prides himself on offering his clients exceptional customer service, combined with his wealth of sales and industry knowledge.

Lynn , 13 Dec 2018 Amazing job Benchmark – we can now happily move on with our new-found retirement. After some ill health and moving away, I found it ever more difficult to run the salon and that’s when Benchmark stepped in to help! They set up a viewing and called a number of their buyers and negotiated everything from start to finish. Great achievement and great result. I am grateful for your help and appreciate everything you have done for me and now I can relax and let me salon go to a great new owner
I've recently purchased a business through Kurt and I couldn't be happier with how the process went. From start to finish Kurt was very professional, approachable and easy to deal with. I'd highly recommend Kurt for anyone looking at buying or selling a business in North Queensland.
2 weeks ago our clinic sale settled and I want to thank Kurt for everything he did to facilitate the deal. A top business broker!
Nicole , 13 Dec 2018 WOW– what a journey! I contacted Nikki 18 months ago when I was pregnant with my second child and she helped me find a buyer for my salon. I decided that I could cope and was reluctant to sell so I changed my mind! Nikki advised me that 2 kids (talking from her own experience) was a lot to handle but understood my decision. After the birth of my son, I realized that I just wanted to spend time with my young family and so my first call was to Nikki. She brought a couple of buyers through and we found the “right fit’ when Amy came along. I knew my clients would love her. Today, Amy bought my salon and I can now relax & enjoy bring my time with my beautiful children. Better still, Nikki negotiated that I still work in the salon one day a week but with flexibility! Thanks Nikki for the perfect result. I am delighted with the outcome
Thanks very much to Ian Salter and the team at Benchmark for getting our business sold. We really appreciate your professionalism, experience, helpful advice and ongoing support in finding the right buyer for the business. We felt very comfortable with the discrete way things were handled and the regular phone and email communications keeping us updated throughout. The whole process was made easy from the initial listing, marketing, setting up of sale contracts, meetings with potential buyers, buyer negotiations, through to the due diligence period and finally the settlement.
