  I had a desire to improve Business broking procedures that lowered the risk of Sellers information being compromised coupled to speeding up the sale from months on the market to just days. This has been successful by implementing systems and procedures that are not available with other business Brokerages:1. Introduction of an internet based CRM that automatically generates most of the required documentation. Our CRM cross matches Sellers with Buyers at the click of a mouse. Our current Buyer data base is one of the largest in Australia encompassing over 4000 registered Buyers.2. High quality business report on every business we sell. Most brokers produce a report that contains a few pages of basic information, however we changed the ground rules by producing full colour reports that contained over 100 pages of detailed analysis. With the Buyer having all the information up front saves time, hassle and costs.3. No other Business Broking company deals with confidentially like us. We implemented a system where every buyer must sign a 4 page confidentiality agreement. Most Brokers will have what we would call a generic confidentiality agreement, where the name of the business is NOT mentioned.In contrast, our agreement states your business name, making the agreement more enforceable. After all, without linking the buyer to your business makes it hard to take action if your confidentiality is compromised. Our agreement also stipulates a return date of all the information, plus a financial penalty fine if the report is not returned buy the target date.5. Discreet, non identifying internet advertising. A quick look at our website will indicate we do thing differently than other brokers. For starters we don't sun it up the flag pole and see who salutes. Rather we advertise the business's features rather than information can identify the business.

  Graham Nankivell has over 35 years of experience in the field of mergers and acquisitions and previously served as a business broker trainer to three prominent business broking companies prior to establishing Performance Business Sales Pty Ltd. Graham is one of W.A.'s longest established and most respected experienced Brokers.My expertise is in COMMERCIAL INDUSTRIAL BUSINESS SALES specialising in –• Wholesale• Distribution• Import/Export• Manufacturing• Service• Franchising• Transport• And a range of other businessesHaving owned my own manufacturing business, I understand how important it is to keep any details that would identify the business away from its suppliers, competitors and staff. After all, security breaches can be just as harmful to the new buyer as it is to the current owner. That’s why we require every potential purchaser to sign a confidentiality agreement before receiving any identifying details of the business being sold. Potential purchasers will only see the businesses that meet their specific requirements. Sellers only receive genuine offers from bona-fide buyers.Throughout my Business broking career, I have participated in over 1,000 transactions.A snapshot of recent successful Business sales include:• Plasma Cutting Business• Australia Wide Master Coffee Franchise Wholesaler• Medical Wholesaler• Pharmaceutical Wholesaler• Coating Company• School Uniform Import Wholesaler• Industrial Embroidery Manufacturer• Aluminum Window Manufacturer - One of the Largest in WA • Solar Products Wholesaler• Large Transport Company• Large Supermarket Import Wholesaler• Automotive Products Wholesaler - plus many moreI list businesses for only 45 days and have a 98% success ratio which is high in a field noted for its uncertainty.Please contact me on 0413 436 766 for assistance in the sale of your business.
