Sold Business

We engaged Anne Barritt from Finn after discussing our options with a couple of other brokers. Anne was engaged rather that the others as she had a true interest in selling our business.

Anne was easy to work with professional and ethical but what most appealed to us was her honesty. She saw the potential of our business and gave us a true and realistic idea of the process of selling our business.

Throughout the process Anne kept us informed , she worked very hard to ensure the sale stayed on track by actively managing ever step making it as stress free as possible.

We were very pleased with the outcome and we have and will continue to highly recommend Anne Barritt to other business owners who are looking to sell their business.

We recently sold our business through Finns Business Brokers and our broker was Anne Barritt. Anne was entirely responsive to our needs, and more importantly was very prompt in responding to inquiries from interested parties and in keeping us fully appraised. We achieved an outstanding price within a few months of listing. We highly recommend Anne from Finns Business Brokers in Melbourne.

Our sale process started by interviewing a number of high-profile Business Brokers and all but one came in with big well-rehearsed presentations and promises that I am sure sounded great to them. The one within this group who differentiated herself was Anne Barritt who treated us with the utmost respect and listened to what we were trying to achieve without trying to drive us into a cookie cutter sale program.

Once we had engaged Anne she went to work with us in developing the sale process that included advertising and vetting of every prospective buyer (a significant number) to bring us only buyers who were serious about a purchase. She provided invaluable support in the discussions and negotiation process until we found the right purchaser for our business. Anne’s support further extended to recommending a solicitor who specialised in business sales and who added a huge amount of value to the commercial outcomes we achieved.

The final outcome of the sale process achieved the exact amount Anne had said she could achieve with a purchaser who could fund the purchase under conditions that were favourable to both our business and the purchaser.

We have no reservations in recommending Anne Barritt as a superior business broker to any organisation wanting to sell their business in the most professional/ethical manner possible.

From the moment we started talking to Anne about selling our business we were treated with the utmost professionalism. Her calm manner. honesty and integrity were everything we could ask for and the fact she was always available made things so easy. We can’t thank you enough for everything you did for us Anne.

We recently sold our electrical business with the help of Greg Sinclair, and it was a great experience from start to finish.

Greg was very professional and knowledgeable. He understood our industry and what we were about, which made us feel confident in his guidance. Communication was always clear and open, keeping us in the loop throughout the entire process.

What stood out most was his personalized approach. He took the time to understand our business and its unique selling points, which helped attract the right buyers. His negotiation skills were on point, leading to the right deal.

Greg Sinclair also provided invaluable support during what was an emotional journey for us. Overall, choosing Greg Sinclair was the best decision we made, and we highly recommend him for anyone looking to sell their business.

After a negative experience with another broker who proved to be terribly unprofessional, I engaged Greg Sinclair to sell my industrial supply business which I had owned for some 27 years.

From the very beginning the difference in approach was evident. Greg made a concerted effort to understand, not only the numbers, but the business behind the numbers. He worked hard to present the business favourably without being misleading. Greg helped negotiate a favourable outcome for both myself and the eventual buyer whilst maintaining an ethical, honest and open approach throughout.

The communication throughout was excellent and I didn’t need to follow Greg up at any stage. He was on top of all the important issues and constantly kept me in the loop about what was happening and what he expected to happen next. Greg was also very flexible with his time, showing prospective buyers through the business after hours and on weekends to help maintain confidentiality.

I’d like to thank Greg for helping make what was sometimes a daunting process, not only manageable but quite seamless. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Greg to anyone else looking to sell their business.

I can now look forward to retirement and the next phase of my life!
