Australia’s Business Brokers

I recently sold my business using Benchmark Business Sales and Mick Godwin as my sales broker. From the day I enlisted his services he was professional, always prompt to respond to any questions/concerns and communicated clearly each step of the way. Mick ensured I had everything in place for potential buyers prior to listing my business for sale, which took away all of the initial stress I had been feeling, as I knew I was in good hands. I appreciated his honest guidance throughout the entire sales journey, including initial listing price advice, negotiating with potential buyers and then closing the sale and I can’t recommend his services highly enough! Thank you Mick! -Katie Elliott | May 2022 Mick Godwin receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review. Mick Godwin has started, grown and successfully sold his own business and through that process saw a huge opportunity to better serve other business owners in the sales process. Currently undertaking a Masters in Business, majoring in finance and strategy, Mick has over 10 years of experience in business management and entrepreneurship. With the unique advantage of combining practical and academic experience, Mick enjoys investigating and understanding a company's value in the market by researching and understanding value further than what the company's written down value suggests it is worth. Get to know more about Mick Godwin and his accomplishments by clicking the "View Profile" button below.

Maria Chadwick , 13 Dec 2018 I used another broker before Benchmark and they did nothing. John and Iain jumped straight on board and worked their magic!! The business was only listed for 2 days before they had a buyer interested and committed. The process was interesting especially as I was overseas but we managed to get through it successfully. I’m happy as I haven’t had to say goodbye to the business I’ve been able to stay on and work part time for the new owner a great result for all parties

Gabriel Dio , 26 Mar 2019 - I dealt with Glenn Irving in the purchase of a steel business. We moved from NSW into the Gold Coast and met him there. Glenn was very professional, and easy to reach.

Steve and Robyn Aird, 20 Jan 2020 - We appointed Glenn Irving of Benchmark Business Sales and Valuations as our broker. We could not have been happier with the result we achieved in the sake of our hardware business. Selling a business is tricky and the regular meetings that were conducted during the contract process kept our sale on track all the way through to the final settlement. We were so happy that we then asked him to sell our commercial property. Glenn Irving and his team brought me a buyer within 2 weeks. Great job and we could not recommend Glenn and his team strongly enough. Glenn Irving receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.
