"I went to see Keith Brewster at Benchmark in July when the turnover for our business, which deals mostly with overseas clients, had dropped by around 80%. Nine months prior to that we had signed a three year lease, so our situation was not good. As well as the lease payments, we also had the ongoing cost of maintaining the small amount business that was left. Keith gave me some hope that we may be able to dispose of the business, & set about on a very professional & comprehensive marketing programme with other Benchmark staff. This achieved quite a few enquiries. Keith kept in very regular contact with me at all times, & after any enquiry or inspection he gave me full feedback. When he found the buyer, Keith did a magnificent job liaising with buyer, seller, & lawyers. This was a difficult business to sell, & I congratulate Keith & the team at Benchmark on their success. This result has taken a large weight from my mind, thank you. I would strongly recommend Keith & Benchmark if you have a business to sell." - Kevin Meagher | December 2020 Keith Brewster receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

Samantha , 13 Dec 2018 I bought my salon from Nikki so it was only natural that I contacted Nikki when selling! I was on the market about a week when found the purchaser then worked with hard helping her get her finances in order and also negotiated the lease with the management agent. She took control and other than paperwork that I had to prepare, Nikki took care of everything. She also put me in touch with a great solicitor too! Nikki is now arranging the next purchase for me!

Lincoln's professionalism and experience is very apparent and he secured an excellent and qualified buyer. The buyer’s process was a little unusual and a bit daunting, however Lincoln displayed commitment, understanding, and readily assisted me with lease negotiations with the existing tenant to ensure that I achieved the best sale price. With his guidance and support, the whole process was made simple and stress free. I just want to say how much I appreciate your hard work and effort, Lincoln. I am extremely pleased with your services and would highly recommend you to anyone looking to sell. Thank You! Lincoln Bridge receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

John O – Seller , 25 Jun 2019 “Sylvia has been totally professional, knowledgeable and there at every twist and turn. We had a number of problems along the way and each time Sylvia kept the sale on track and took action to get the deal done. At times our emotions got the better of us but Sylvia made us feel that we were in safe hands. Sylvia, actually found a buyer quickly for our Salon and we settled within 4 months, the purchaser is the perfect fit for my Skin Clinic, allowing me to walk away with confidence and knowing my clients will be in good hands. I strongly recommend Benchmark Salon Sales.

We contacted Tu Nguyen from Benchmark Business Sales & Valuations after our previous business brokerage firm tried to sell our takeaway business with no luck and lack of communication. Tu was very informative from the onset and had a lot of knowledge and experience in selling businesses and he guided us through the whole sale process through to settlement without any issues. He was always available anytime of the day and even on weekends when we needed to speak with him. Nothing was too hard for Tu, and we felt very comfortable and in good hands with Tu and would highly recommend him and Benchmark Business Sales & Valuations to any potential sellers looking to sell their business. - Gordon & Rita

Lisa Oakes , 08 Apr 2019 I got a phone call out of the blue from Clyde who said that he had a buyer and really wanted me to list my salon so that he could introduce them to my salon, it was all quite random but the timing was perfect because I was scheduled to have surgery early in the new year and would be out of action for months after the surgery. I was a little dubious that there really was a buyer, but I actually received an offer the day after I signed the agreement! Things definitely weren’t all smooth sailing though. The contract period went over the Christmas break and then the buyer had to go overseas for 6 weeks and all the accountants and solicitors were also on holidays! I thought the sale was off however Clyde was very calm and reassured me that the sale would proceed when the buyer was back from overseas, which it did. Now I can focus on my recovery without the stress of running the business, awesome job!

Chris , 06 Feb 2020 I have always wanted to buy this salon and Nikki made it possible. At first, I was reluctant to share any personal details with Nikki but once I met with her, I instantly trusted her and opened. She helped me from start to finish and even pushed hard at the end when I wanted the salon to settle at a certain date and she promised she would make it happen. She did. She is a strong woman, working to help other strong women to achieve their dreams!

Fiona Briffa , 01 Jan 2018 Benchmark Salon Sales knew exactly what my requirements were "I had been looking for a salon for a while and had nearly given up all hope! No-one was getting back to me or showing me what I wanted, then I spoke with Benchmark and since they were from the industry they knew exactly what my requirements were. I’ve now been able to get my first salon and kick start my business empire. Exciting times ahead thanks again."

"This is the second salon I have sold through John and he is only broker I trust. I have owned a number of salons in my 30+ years and John has an enormous amount of industry insight and this is one of the reasons I keep using him, the other is that he gets the job done unlike so many others that talk the talk but can't walk the walk." - Sam Barbaro | 11 Sep 2019 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.
