Sam from Benchmark assisted in the selling of our business of 35 years. In what could have been a stressful and emotional period. Sam's calm demeanor and unwavering support was invaluable.

Mark provided excellent support, guidance and information for my client in the purchase of an RTO. He follows up when he says he will and is professional, courteous, and practical. His efforts to steer the sale from enquiry to completion went at times beyond his brief in an effort to provide solutions to any issues that were raised. I have operated as an VET and RTO compliance consultant for more than 20 years and am pleased to recommend Mark if you are looking for excellent customer service, integrity and RTO industry knowledge and experience. I look forward to an opportunity to work with Mark again. - Jex McNamara | July 22. Mark Crapper receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

"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.

Bare Again , 01 Jun 2018 We recently sold our business with Benchmark Business Sales.

Anyone considering purchasing or selling a business, I could not recommend Benchmark enough. ANDREW was incredible with constant communication, advice and direction at all times. As a first time business purchaser, Andrew was invaluable with his knowledge, contacts and experience - without this we may have not continued with the purchase. Thank you Benchmark!
