We understand that as a prospective client, you need to feel comfortable that we have the skills and experience to sell your business or to advise on purchase of a business – one of the most important markers of our business broking ability is our track record.
Usually we are working on projects under the radar of a visible marketing campaign depending on each client’s requirements – for example, where we have an agreed strategy targeting highly specific sales, mergers and acquisitions.
Rather than list on-market large numbers of businesses for sale, at Jamieson we actively focus on a small number of mid-market sized business sale, merger and acquisition transactions.
This means that at any one time, we will be actively working on only a small number of quality businesses – and we achieve a completed result in almost every case.
The table below demonstrates our experience across a wide range of industry sectors in mid-market business sales, merger and acquisition transactions. It shows the size of the businesses by revenue range and achieved sale price range for completed transactions. Time can vary considerably due to different industry, market, social and economic conditions.
You will find additional information on specific examples of multiple sales in particular industries on our Business Sales Examples page.
