About
“We are the best business brokers on the Gold Coast!”
We offer over 40 years experience in Corporate Advisory, Business Sales, and Mergers and Acquisitions transacting deals with private companies through to publicly listed. Whether you’re selling or buying a business we’ll help you achieve the best possible outcome.
With a wide market share and No.1 industry search engine ranking we experience a high volume of activity in a broad market space. Most of our businesses are constantly either Under Offer, Under Contract or just Sold so you couldn’t ask to put your business in better hands. Most of the activity is coming from cash buyers from Melbourne, Sydney, New Zealand, China, Singapore, Thailand, India and South Africa which is ideal as we have a multilingual team fluent in Filipino, Thai, Japanese, Cantonese, Mandarin, Indian, Hindi and Punjabi.
We Get Traffic!
We reach out to all the major industry websites for business sales, mergers and acquisitions, and angel investments and have a database that spans over 17 years which includes over 10,000 private equity/venture capital-type investors as well as contacts with some of the wealthiest names in the country. The above traffic snapshot is just through Google and doesn’t include traffic through other search engines like Safari, Bing, Yelp or redirects from our sister site businessforsaleqld.com.au, goldcoastbusinessbroker.com.au or our various Facebook groups! In fact, we rank page 1, if not, position 1 on all the major industry search terms and receive on average 716 visits just to our website a day!
As an exceptionally experienced and well-oiled team we pride ourselves on connecting only the most suitable buyers with businesses that make sense. We take pride in maintaining the highest level of confidentiality as possible to ensure a smooth end-to-end sale so will work closely with each party to ensure that this is not compromised in any way.
With the high expectations we put on ourselves to create great results it takes a full team effort to ensure that no one is forgotten or left behind. Just like choosing to work with the best surgeons, when you employ our services, you are choosing to work with our trusted brand, proven reputation and hard work ethics to get you the best possible results. We’re not here to rip you off. We’re here to get results. That’s why sellers, buyers, solicitors and accountants put their trust in us.
Mergers & Acquisitions
We attract businesses worth up to $100million and lend themselves to mergers and acquisitions by larger firms. Connecting and structuring a sale between high wealth individuals, private equity, and corporates alike takes a high level of commitment and energy, experience and connections, and we have plenty of this.
As a down to earth, dynamic, Australian family owned business we offer a personal service backed by powerful technology and resources to extend our ability and reach. We’re also not governed by a franchise or corporate greed so, if a deal needs to come together, we can make it happen!
