Purchaser
"Right from the start LINK Business were professional and very active – they took charge, advising me of the options available and the reasons for each option and kept us informed all the way through – any difficulties and concerns were seemingly dealt with ease by LINK Business in particular the Business Broker JD Hyslop; his work on this transaction was outstanding he was able to bring together the right buyer for the type of business I was selling with the right attitude for the kind of clientele I generally represent which meant the all process of the business sale, from beginning to end, went very smoothly and impressively quick. I am convinced that we would be still looking for a buyer if we had not approached Link Businesses to act on my behalf.
To LINK Business Brokers thank you very much."

With JD having a close network of business professionals such as finance brokers, solicitors, and accountants, it made the process all the simpler for me in order to get the deal across the line.

Purchaser
"Listing the business you have built from scratch over the years is an emotional and anxious time for anyone. Will someone see the value?, will they carry it on to the future? JD’s and Nick’s calm professionalism and reassuring competence eased the process and ensured a smooth and effortless transaction of the sale. Efficient and direct communication was crucial and was exhibited at all times to enhance what turned out to be an exciting time. My thanks to JD in particular for managing us all through this process to the successful conclusion in such a short time frame."

"We chose LINK because of JD's expertise and friendly, professional manner. He was very helpful and knowledgeable with our sale process. This gave us the confidence that we would achieve a successful outcome. Thank you, JD, for selling our business."
Laura
"Using JD Hyslop’s team at Link Business was by far the best decision that I made for selling my business. I had spoken to other brokers and these guys had, by far, the most positive attitude to getting my business sold. From the initial meeting where they gained a verbal understanding of what I was trying to achieve to the quality of the Information memorandum they got the marketing on point. It wasn't all plain sailing as on two occasions a conditional deal was reached, and the buyers dropped out…..one of these because of a serious health scare. I was ready to give up, but JD kept me going. I was so frustrated with people backing out, but the experience of the LINK team showed through. We went back to market and on the third occasion secured a deal at a higher price that went unconditional. Selling your business is an emotional experience but these guys were always available and level-headed and they got the job done. If you are about to sell your business do yourself a favour and chat to this team, you won't be disappointed. Thanks Guys!"

"Nick and JD were very professional during the sales process. JD in particular was very good at identifying suitable candidates for the business which resulted in less stress and a successful sale."
Vendor
"We purchased our business during difficult covid times, as we are out of Auckland this relied on zoom calls and videos. JD was very professional, allowed us to communicate freely and added advice when appropriate. We appreciated his informed yet laid back approach. He was not pushy at any time, and we have been able to purchase the business without any hiccups."
Vendor
"Having been told that a Law Firm would be very difficult to sell, I decided to use the services of JD, Nick and the team at Link Business. The results were excellent with a smooth and timely sale, while achieving the best possible price. JD, Nick and the team were extremely professional and it was a pleasure doing business with them. I would not hesitate to recommend them to a prospective Vendor. Many thanks team and well done!"
Vendor
"Working with JD and Nick was a great experience. As a first-time business seller, they took the time to explain the process and provide me with the relevant information at the correct time. Their communication was excellent. Throughout the sales process, we worked together on the strategy, timing and approach, and my options were always clearly presented, well thought out and constructive. I enjoyed working with them, and fundamentally would not have sold my business without their expert assistance."
Vendor
"JD was the broker I dealt with in the purchase of my business. I obviously expected him to be professional and competent, which he was. But I was more impressed with his ability to encapsulate the questions I had and to summarize the conversations I was having with the vendor. JD clearly knew the right questions to ask in order that I could be as informed as possible. He also knew when to move on to the next issue, rather than dwelling on what had been previously discussed. I would have no hesitation in recommending JD as a business broker."
Purchaser
"We had 100 questions, and the brokers were patient and knowledgeable the entire time, keeping us on track towards our goal. It was clear early on that we made the right choice not only to sell the business, but to entrust LINK with the sale and specifically, Nick and JD."
Vendor
"Nick was very patient with us and showed that he genuinely cared about the business. JD was also available for questions, catchups and updates. They both exhibited a high level of professionalism throughout the process, they were able to bring in potential purchasers that we would not have found for ourselves and they ultimately helped us to sell the business for the asking price we are happy with."
Michael
"I found JD Hislop extremely helpful, patient, and supportive through the process of buying a business. Whilst I accept, he was fundamentally acting on behalf of the vendor, I always felt that he held my best interests at heart also. I believe he found the middle ground with which to facilitate the sale. I would have no hesitation in recommending JD to anyone."
Purchaser
"JD and Nick are an extremely professional and diligent team who handled our sale with complete confidence and helped us to achieve the best possible price. We wouldn’t hesitate using them again and recommending them to other prospective vendors. Thanks guys, and keep up the good work!"
Ben

Purchaser
"JD was very careful about ensuring that the business really was the right fit for me, I didn’t feel pressured to make immediate moves, and instead was given time and space to make informed decisions.”
Purchaser
"Hi JD & Nick, Thank you both for your assistance in getting our business sold. This was quite a daunting process for someone unfamiliar with the whole process, but you made it quite simple, and painless. I have another local printer who is making noises about selling, and I have no reservations in recommending him to you both (when he is ready). All the best!"
