About Jamieson Corporate Services


Many business agents and accounting firms are unable to offer the scope and depth of practical business experience
that Jamieson brings in advising proprietors on the sale of their businesses.

Jamieson Corporate Services provides personalised and confidential business valuation and broking service to owners and managers of private businesses.

  • For broking assignments, we only take on a small number of carefully selected business sales or acquisition transactions at any one time. This focussed approach allows us to achieve highly successful results for our clients.
  • Our team consists of experienced business brokers.
  • Our principals are licensed as business agents by the NSW Office of Fair Trading.
  • Jamieson is a member of the Australian Institute of Business Brokers (AIBB) and the Real Estate Institute of NSW (REINSW).

Principals
Our principals, Paul de Rome and Rodger Williams, have financial and technical backgrounds and are experienced as industrial managers, directors and shareholders of medium-sized companies. This, coupled with many years of experience in selling businesses, provides a sound basis for giving solid, practical advice to owners planning to sell their business.

More than 20 years experience as business brokers enables us to clearly demonstrate to purchasers how they can achieve a good fit and profit from a business acquisition.

It is fundamental to the Jamieson process to maintain confidentiality of the business sale process and to act only when we have clear authority.

Preparing your business for a successful sale

Common mistakes to avoid
Make a checklist and be sure you avoid the following:
  • Failing to correctly prepare the business for sale
  • Not knowing the business’s true value
  • Failing to prepare quality information about the business
  • Trying to sell to just one buyer
  • Neglecting the business when it is for sale
  • Not seeing the business from the buyer’s perspective The time to review the dos and don’ts is well before you’re ready to sell.

So enlist the services of an experienced business broker or intermediary to plan a successful strategy.
It will pay you big dividends in the future!
