J. Hoppe , 13 Dec 2018 ” I first met Michael from Benchmark Business after I made a phone call to enquire about Benchmark Business, systems and ended up making an appointment to meet with Michael, that was in August 2013. Michael travelled from Brisbane to Toowoomba to meet with me and I was able to find out what he thought he could to sell our business and he found out all he could about our business, my husband, myself and why we wanted to sell. I was quite impressed with what Michael thought he could do to sell our business but I had to convince my husband to go with him as after having a couple of not so good experiences with other big name brokers and feeling ripped off he was very hesitant. Michael was persistent and rang me on average every two months for a chat and to see how we were going and did not pressure me at all. I got so used to his calls if he missed ringing I would ring him and touch base as I did not want to lose contact with him as I felt I could trust him to do the right thing when we were ready to list our business. Early in 2015 we were ready to list the business and property for sale so Michael came and met with my husband Graham and myself and everything went from there, there was only a small fee for the putting together of the business information memorandum for prospective buyers to view, this I felt he had done a great job putting together, the information in it was spot on. There were a few interesting enquiries and many discussions with Michael and I always felt comfortable with him and knew he understood where I was coming from so trust was growing for both of us then in the end of March and early April thing started to get interesting with lots of information going back and forth for several interested parties and by June we thought we had a buyer but then they backed away just before settlement in July, what a disappointment for us and Michael as we had worked so hard. Michael followed up with another party that had shown quite good interest and with lots more to-ing and throwing of information and much patience from both Michael and ourselves we finally got an offer we were happy with and accepted and things progressed from there and Contracts were signed and our business was sold on the 4th of December 2015. During 2015, our eldest daughter was seriously ill and I had to spend many months in Cairns caring for her, which made it very hard at times, but Michael always asked how she was and how I was coping and offered great support, this I greatly appreciated. During the time spent working with Michael over two years to achieve a successful sale, I felt we had built a bond of respect, trust and honest with each other and a friend ship had formed between us which I hope continues for many years. I am thankful I went with my gut feelings and put my trust in Michael of Benchmark Business. ” Yours sincerely J. Hoppe

M. Joshi & D. Shukla , 13 Dec 2018 ”The service was exceptional from day 01, didn’t had any issues in buying this small business. The broker, Shreyansh was prompt to all our queries and supported us in all the areas. Sale process was was smooth too, without any issues. From the purchase offer to the settlement of the business, we were clear and had no doubts with what was happening, it was simply perfect. We would like to thank Shreyansh Shah and the Benchmark team for an extraordinary service and would like to recommend our fellow mates who are willing to buy business.”

Seller , 29 Sep 2020 Nikki  managed to negotiate with both the buyer and Head office to get the deal to work for everyone. She systematically worked through each and every detail and kept all parties informed of all the steps along the way. I am chuffed to bits with the results of working with “Australia’s No1 Business Broker” nationally and I now I know why? Amazing service and amazing girl! I am looking forward to that beer with Nikki that we talked about and I will thank her personally then but for now, I am happy to recommend Nikki and Benchmark Salon Sales and the fabulous work that they do.

Jon Collins , 01 Jan 2018 I was put onto Benchmark to help manage the salon buying sale process, I found them very helpful and driven to get the sale completed. They were very diligent and made sure the salon sale timeline was followed for a smooth and timely settlement. If you are thinking of buying then I suggest you talk to Benchmark

Tu was given the task of selling a great regional business and showed patience, professionalism and determination to finally get the best result. I recommend Tu to anyone wanting to sell their business. He genuinely cares about his clients. - Tony

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.

Eleni Kondo , 18 Mar 2019 To all prospective business sellers, I would have no hesitation in recommending Benchmark as your business agent. They were very professional, organise & provided a high level of communication & care. Our broker was there every step of the way through a somewhat difficult & prompt sale. I'm a former licensed real estate agent so have experience in the industry & have never had to outsource for a service I'm capable of doing but I'm very glad I did. Well worth the money. Thank you!

He has been totally professional, knowledgeable and there at every twist and turn, we had a number of problems along the way and each time John kept the sale on track and took action to get the deal done. At times our emotions got the better of us but John made us feel that we were in safe hands and steered captained the ship to the final destination." - Anna Stewart | 01 Apr 2018 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.
