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.

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! -Jayne Fenton | March 2022 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

Samantha Jones , 01 Jan 2018 I’m probably one of the happiest seller you will find! Benchmark was fanatical at managing the sale and guiding the entire process. I got the price I wanted and a quick sale. Thanks for all your efforts

Name Undisclosed , 13 Dec 2018 This is a very exciting time for us, as we have just purchased 6 new sites to add to our current portfolio and a new private product line! None of this could have been made possible if it wasn’t for Benchmark, as we had already purchased a site with them before we were on their radar.  They came to us with this opportunity and we knew it was a sound investment, yet again Benchmark stepped up each and every time when matters needed to be addressed. They assisted us with leasing and ensured that the lawyers stayed on track!! Which was a task in itself.  We look forward to working with Benchmark again in the future and would recommend anyone looking to expand their business.

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.
