• Woody Woodpekers Tree Service
Broker: George Dean
To whom it may concern, I engaged George Dean from National Business Sales in January 2008 to sell my business Woody Woodpekers Tree Services P/L. From our first meeting I had a good feeling about George. I felt he was the right person to list my business with as he listened to what I wanted. I had a criteria before I would list my business such as I did not want the identity of my business advertised, how would you qualify buyers, I want to be kept informed how things are going, how much is my business worth and don't beat around the bush, tell me how it is. Well George said he would get back to me, gave me a date and I waited for his reply. George got back to me when he said he would, explained his strategy and I was happy to move forward.

Then our work began, George gave me a list of things to do so he could prepare the portfolio. Well after some intense meetings, photographic sessions and document exchange George put together the history of my business that explained where it came from, how it had grown, where it was now and where a new buyer could take it. I was extremely impressed, George got to know my business so he knew what he was talking about and could explain to buyers most questions they had.

On the second advertisement George had a client that was interested and his interest grew so much he purchased my business. George did enormous work to conclude the sale and I thank him very much.

Just to finish George has been a pleasure to work with, he did what he said he would and went over and above my expectations. I will miss some of our conversations and laughs together, a dam hard worker who gets results. I will use George in the future and would recommend George to anyone selling or buying a business.
