Australia’s Business Brokers

Magdaleine , 01 Feb 2018 I asked Nikki to sell my salon for me and what a result! I am delighted to be able to move on with all my travel plans and spending time with my grandchildren and the salon is now in the hands of a great dad & daughter team who will look after my clients well. Thank-you Nikki for taking care of everything and I wish you all the best. You really are the Queen of salon sales! Much appreciated!

Kathy Edgar , 01 Jan 2018 I bought a salon previously through a different broker, but I had spoken to Benchmark in the past and knew they had the inside knowledge and professionalism to get my salon sold. I decide to list it with them and got a great result, we even organised settlement after the Christmas trade, which was a big bonus for me to keep the Christmas dollars. I’m now able to make a fresh start in 2018 – Thank you Benchmark.

“I found out about Benchmark because they came highly recommended from an Industry contact. We initial listed with them however we couldn’t get the money we wanted. They suggested taking the business off the market and building it up the to be more profitable, to be able to sell and achieve the price we wanted. 8 months later we increased the figures and listed the business with them at a higher price. They delivered a buyer instantly and got us the money we wanted. They were fantastic in guiding us through the process and keeping all parties on track throughout the Christmas period especially when the lawyers were on holiday. I will definitely be recommending Benchmark to all of my fellow hair salon owners if they decide to sell.” - Tanya Lam | 18 Mar 2019 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.
