Hot Industry Sectors
Due to recent regulatory
and economic changes, there is a noticeable trend towards
certain industry sectors amongst business buyers.
One of the more notable trends is the move away
from purchases of manufacturing businesses towards those
relating to import and distribution.
Jamieson has many years of experience in most
of today's well sought after industries. Some of these industries
include:
• Import and distribution
• Customs broking/freight forwarding
• Fashion
• Finance- insurance broking and financial planning
• Injury/rehabilitation management
We have recently been
involved in valuations, sales and acquisition searches of
SME private businesses in these industries.
Please contact us for more information on today's
popular industries. |

Planting the Seed for Succession |
|
| |
|

Newspoll surveys show that
nearly a quarter of people aged from 18 to 34 are seriously
considering buying a business.
Baby
boomers need to be well prepared if they are to reap the rewards
from this young and eager buying market.
Experts
believe business owners need to factor in more than the traditional
considerations in their succession planning.
Yes,
documenting your business processes, good record-keeping and
having a progressive plan to transfer your goodwill are all
very important in ensuring that your business fetches a high
value when you're finally ready to sell. As is having a good
business broker that understands your industry and has a strong
track record for negotiating deals.
However,
there now seems to be another important consideration- psychology.
Because younger people are likely to buy
businesses, astute sellers will make an effort to understand
what makes them tick.

Studies show that Generation Y
expect more than just a job; they expect to fulfil multiple
expectations including work variety, fun and opportunity.
The younger generation hunger for challenges over and above
all.
Instilling flexibility in the workplace
and allowing for growth opportunities will make your business
more attractive to young buyers. A good way to start preparing
your business for a thriving succession might be to encourage
an environment where different ages can mix and share ideas. |

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 sale or acquisition
transactions at any one time. This focussed approach allows
us to achieve 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 also a
member of the Australian Institute of Business Brokers
|
(AIBB) and the Real
Estate Institute of NSW (REINSW).
Generally, business agents or 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's principals have financial and technical backgrounds
and are experienced as industrial managers, directors and
shareholders of medium-sized companies. This provides a sound
base for advice to owners planning to sell their business.
Our 20 years of experience as business brokers
enables us to demonstrate to purchasers how they can achieve
a good fit and profit from a business acquisition. |
