Tony Bradley

"In November 2007 I listed a business that I owned with Mr Tony Bradley from LINK. I found him to be a thoroughly professional person to deal with during the successful sale process. His approach was efficient and he was always prepared to go that extra mile when marketing and negotiating the sale. His knowledge of information requirements to assist the sale process was very good and this helped with the preparation of the information memorandum and marketing material.

During the final negotiating stage he communicated well with both parties and made everyone feel comfortable. I have no hesitation in recommending him and in fact I have done that on a number of occasions since the sale of my business."

Tony Bradley

"It is my genuine pleasure to say to you that working with LINK with the sale of the national business, and more particularly working with Tony personally, was by far the most professional, most effective and most pleasurable experience we have had in selling a business.

From the outset your approach has been thorough, professional and measured and we have felt very comfortable that we were included and fully informed at every step. Most importantly, you gained the results you said you would get and in the timeframe you estimated.

Now that we are moving the business offshore... we are unhesitatingly planning to promote the sale of those businesses through LINK."

Stephen McElrea and Ross McLauchlan

"We would like to take the opportunity to thank your company
and in particular, Mr Stephen McElrea and Ross McLauchlan for their very professional manner in which they handled the sales of the business of the Midway Motel at Waiheke Island ....... Their service and keeping us informed at all times, was excellent and to have two lots of purchasers sign up was a bonus ....... We would have no hesitation in recommending both of them to any potential purchaser or vendor. It was good doing business with your company."

Richard Ridler

"KingYo was our "baby" and a considerable amount of emotion surrounded this whole process. Not only were you supportive in a professional sense but you understood the personal dimension and a great deal of your approach can only be described as "wisdom". We appreciate that side just as much as the commercial success you achieved for us."

Bill Hayward

"Recently, Bill Hayward sold our company for us. The otherwise difficult sales process was made easier with the welcome input of Mr Hayward. The sale of a company is often a stressful and emotive process and it was a pleasure to have a calming, logical and level headed influence throughout the whole exercise from potential buyer to completed sale. I would recommend Mr Hayward, to a potential customer who wants to either sell or buy a business, unequivocally and without hesitation."

Laurel McCulloch

"I was introduced to Laurel McCulloch and Link Business Broking through a series of connections in the Australian and New Zealand International Coach Federation and franchising networks. Obviously when one meets a person by recommendation there are certain credibility expectations mixed with a certain caution of the unknown.

Although the first few months in my business relationship with Laurel were by phone, fax and email, I knew that this was a person who understood the franchise industry inside-out and who understood the science of marketing and selling a franchise business. When we commenced the business relationship Laurel advised me that it would take around six months to fine a suitable buyer for our NZ Master Franchise. She was 100% correct.  Although we were presented with early interested parties along the way, the person who bought our NZ Master Franchise responded to the systematic advertising campaign instigated by Laurel ... and it took just on the six months that Laurel estimated.

Not only did Laurel provide excellent marketing and sales skills for our business, through her contacts in the franchise industry she also provided us with contacts that assisted in getting our franchise systems in place. 

These included franchise consultants, accountants and lawyers. Overall, I have no hesitation in recommending Laurel McCulloch and Link Business Broking if you are considering selling or buying a business and especially if you are considering buying or selling a franchise business."

Nick Stevens

"Hi Nick, I really appreciate the effort you have gone into on my behalf and your vote of confidence means the world to me. I do look for that extra bit of reassurance especially in people I hold in high regard who are successful and above all ethical. Your manner of handling this process and my interests have been above and beyond the call of duty and at no time have you made me feel under any pressure to just write the cheque. Your focus is clearly on your client's interests and not sales only orientated. That I sincerely appreciate and wanted to acknowledge."

Raymond Saussey

"Raymond Saussey acted on our behalf as broker in the sale of this business. Raymond has an amiable but hard working and forthright matter. We found him to be most helpful throughout the sale process and enjoyed dealing with him. He was meticulous in gathering detail he required in order to manage the sale and was very thorough throughout the process.

Raymond had the sale of the business under contract in three weeks from confirmation of our intention to employ LINK as agents, with a back up agreement in place from another purchaser.

I would gladly employ Raymond to act on our behalf again and have no hesitation in recommending him to others."

"I thought Case B. was highly professional, sincere and genuinely reassuring in all contact and communication.  He consistently communicated and was a true champion at batting hard for both the vendor and purchaser.  I was impressed.  Thanks to Case, LINK and the General Team."

Richard Ridler and Kelvin Taylor

"We received today your kind gift on selling our business.  It arrived as a complete surprise and will indeed be enjoyed "once the cheque is in the bank" - as they say.  We have found both Richard and Kelvin extremely helpful and very easy to deal with and would indeed be happy to refer others to LINK based on our current experience."
