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.

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

Stephanie Bergamaschi , 13 Dec 2018 “Nikki was approached by a person interested in my salon I wasn’t even on the market within a few short months Nikki had negotiated the deal and the sale was done it was far less stressful than in the past.If you want your business sold not just for sale Nikki is the one. She anticipates what is needed and gets it done.Thanks so much x” Stephanie Bergamaschi – Seller

Seller Sarah , 25 Jun 2019 “I contacted Nikki when I was pregnant with my first baby and asked her to help me sell my beautiful salon. She came highly recommended as my best friend’s mum also sold their salon through Nikki 6 months ago so I knew I was working with the right person. She took care of the whole sale process from start to finish and I sold my salon on the very day my baby was born! I cannot wait to start the next stages of my life and a massive thank you Nikki for taking care of everything and for minimising the stress of it all for me - allowing me to concentrate on my baby boy.

Caitlin , 13 Dec 2018 I contacted Nikki as I was looking for a second salon and enquired about one she has advertised. She discussed it with me and answered all my questions then set me up with a viewing and I knew immediately this was the “one”. Nikki helped me with all aspects of the purchase and last week I started work at my new salon. Thank you Nikki – you kept in touch throughout and today everything is sorted. I appreciate everything you did to get me my new salon

Hess. Maria & Vicki , 30 Jun 2020 Working with Nikki could not have been easier. She promised me she would find a buyer for the salon and she delivered! Within a short timeframe, she found a Cash purchaser, delivered an agreeable offer, put it to contract and within 3 weeks, we are SOLD! She took care of everything from landlord approval, lease negotiation and handover. She was efficient and organised plus her style of dealing with all situations matched ours perfectly, so it was seamless and never felt stressful. We were in very capable hands with an expert in her field. We got on famously together as we hit our stride working together. Excellent service Nikki, thank you and we are delighted to provide this glowing testimonial for your next client to understand what you can do for them too
