Australia’s Business Brokers

Anne-Marie & Craig , 13 Dec 2018 My husband and I were on the lookout for a fully managed business as an investment and as a gentle entry into the small business world. We were lucky enough to come across Nikki who was extremely patient in helping us navigate the unfamiliar terms and environment. As novices in the small business world but experienced in general business we found her to be extremely knowledgeable and she answered all our queries without hesitation and with such a supportive approach. We believe she was out to represent both vendor’s and purchaser’s interests and to make the process as smooth as possible. We are very pleased to have started our journey and highly recommend Nikki as a broker

Lynn , 13 Dec 2018 Amazing job Benchmark – we can now happily move on with our new-found retirement. After some ill health and moving away, I found it ever more difficult to run the salon and that’s when Benchmark stepped in to help! They set up a viewing and called a number of their buyers and negotiated everything from start to finish. Great achievement and great result. I am grateful for your help and appreciate everything you have done for me and now I can relax and let me salon go to a great new owner

I spoke to John a few years ago and when it was time to sell, I immediately reached out to him. We listed and sold in a very short period and he had the perfect buyer ready to go. As we approached settlement, the buyer communicated to me that they were in the process of purchasing another business with a different broker. The buyer was highly impressed and appreciative that our transaction transpired so quickly and seamlessly. This was down to John’s efficiency, management and expertise. John was outstanding and an absolute pleasure to work with. He achieved a phenomenal price, and an amazing result! John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

Gino , 05 Feb 2020 Bought the salon through Nikki a year or so ago and decided that I would go back to my old career, so contacted Nikki for her help in selling it. She helped with all the negotiations with the buyer and made the whole thing go smoothly. She sold the salon in a matter of weeks! Benchmark Salon Sales

Bernice , 30 Jun 2020 OMG, what a ride! In the middle of Covid-19, Nikki achieved a sale which at times, with lockdown, we thought was never going to happen. It just goes to show. Persistence can prevail even in the trickiest of markets and market was exceptional. Most brokers would have given up. Nikki, your job was to bring me a buyer. Despite the challenges of me being a first-time seller, and the market being mid-covid-19! You did it…...I believe a match made in heaven. I am excited to sell and he is excited to buy! The buyer is exceptional, it truly is a good match. I am confident that I have sold the salon in good faith, that my staff will be looked after and the salon will thrive, under the new ownership. That it will continue to flourish was so important to me. Thank you Nikki

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

"Every time I buy a salon, I immediately go to Benchmark salon sales, they are the guys that have the best salons and know everything about the industry. We have purchased numerous salons from them and this is the biggest and best yet. Even my lawyer couldn’t speak more highly of him quoting in an email “John Kasapi is a super star agent”.  Benchmark are the trusted name in salon sales throughout the country and have delivered Another great business to me and I look forward to the next one." - Ketan Shiyani | 08 Apr 2019 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

Brad Jones , 11 Jun 2019 Emma was fantastic. She was always available and would do anything to answer questions and really went the extra mile to get the sale through. She is personable and easy to get along with and I would recommend her to anyone and would definitely use her services to sell or buy a business going forward.

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
