"We are picky about who we take on."

Why Oakshield?

Oakshield is not the biggest business brokerage firm in the market.  In fact, in all of the years since we started in 1999, that has never been our aim.  Oakshield was founded on the back of almost 50 years of business wisdom, gained through an incredible journey of success (and a few failures) of the founder, Norman Emanouel.  Someday soon he’s going to write a book about how he did it.  Should be a good read!

We don’t believe any person can handle more than 10 businesses for sale at one time. In fact, we would caution you to be wary of organisations who claim that they have hundreds businesses for sale. One simply has to wonder how justice can be done to those businesses, when it comes time to negotiate a sale price that will yield the best possible result for the vendor.

We will only list a business for sale if you are fully committed to the process.  We have learned, through many years of experience, the skills necessary to identify and realise the potential within a business.  

We do not, and will not, run about after any and every listing we can find.  Listing and selling a business properly is a complex process based upon trust and understanding between the vendor and the broker.

We can't do justice to you and your business unless we can gain a thorough understanding of how you both operate.

 

What We Do

We are happy enough to offer a free appraisal of your business, if you wish.  We won’t pull any punches in our assessment and you may be surprised at what we see in your business that you may not notice, if only because you are close to it on a daily basis.

If you go through this web site you will see there are not too many businesses listed for sale.  We are picky about who we take on and we don’t list a business for sale unless we believe it’s ready for sale.  There are not a lot of brokers who take our approach.

We will want to first look at your place of business, to assess how you, and especially your customers, assess your business.  You never get a second chance to make a first impression, after all.

We'll also need to take a look at your financials, with an assurance we will maintain strict confidentiality as to any information, financial or otherwise, we see during that process.

We will take a little time to talk to you, the owner, to gauge your feelings toward the potential divestment, and to establish what plans you have for the business and how you would see it being marketed.
