Australia’s Business Brokers

"We initially received a postcard in the mail and at first we were apprehensive about whether Benchmark had a buyer for our business. However, we called John and he actually had a buyer quickly for my business and we went to contract immediately. This has been a emotional roller coaster and that's why I'm writing this testimonial, as I want to let other potential sellers know it is extremely important to have the right broker on your side. John is the best around. He is my super hero. If you are concerned about paying fees ... trust me he is worth every cent." - Chloe Shipilov | 06 Feb 2020 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

"Sold sold sold at long last!!! From contract to settlement was 3 weeks which was really quick however before that we attempted to sell the business over a year ago and that didn’t work out at all well. But I’m thankful I used John 2nd time around to get the business finally over the line. I could not believe how hard these things are to sell and I can’t believe it’s finally happened, Im so happy now. If it wasn’t for John, who knows where this deal would have ended up especially with difficult lawyers involved.  I really do not know how John does it, thank god it's over." - Sean Skeffington | 06 Feb 2020 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

“Wow wow wow they truly are the best in the business. Benchmark delivered record sales on two of my best stores and were an absolute delight to deal with. My sale was a seamless and I can definitely see why they are the best in the country. When it's time to sell my chain there I will be calling Benchmark. They had the buyer straight away and we put two of my sites to contract and managed the entire process which involved lease negotiable, name agreement, product distribution contracts and so much more. Benchmark are full service brokers and go above and beyond. Yes I'm impressed!” - Chernae Noonan - Seller | 25 Jun 2019 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

Eddie Griffith , 12 Aug 2020 Two years ago I reached the stage where I felt that I should look to sell the business and started meeting with business brokers who advertised in the newspaper’s classified and on Google. Information Memorandum showing what the business had done in the past, the future potential and the asset/liability position. Things were looking promising. We discussed a marketing plan along with information memos showing what the business had done in the past the future potential and the normal assets and liabilities. Things looked good. Ian is extremely adept at strategically managing the negotiations, assessing the genuineness of prospective buyers and then closing the best deal for his client.

“When I decided to sell I initially approached John however I decide to go with another broker but they never delivered. Fast forward another 4 years from that day and I went back to John who finally got my business sold. Benchmark are expensive but I truly got the best service and thanks to the Benchmark salon team for their diligent management of the process. In hindsight I should have gone with John Kasapi 4 years ago.” - Kim and Bill Forbes | 18 Mar 2019 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.
