Provek

Client name: Trevor Pinder

Why did you decide to sell your business?
‘I wanted to realise my assets to fulfil other life goals.’

How did you find out about BCMS Corporate and why did you select us to
sell your business?
‘Introduced by my solicitor.’

Did you consider any competitors of ours and if so why did you not use them?
If you didn’t consider any competitors, why not?
‘Yes, I reviewed two alternative organisations. I selected BCMS Corporate
because you presented a sales approach to managing the sale lifecycle of Provek
rather than presenting your approach as a list of contacts.’

How did you feel the sale process was managed?
‘Exceptionally well, not all straight sailing but the skills and experience of the key
BCMS Corporate people meant that I was very happy with the conclusion.’

How important was confidentiality and why was this?
‘Very – I did not want my staff or customers finding out before I was comfortable
to tell them.’

Did the sale process affect the everyday management of your company?
‘Yes. This was a tough programme of work and despite long hours it did impact at
times, so it was important to minimise as many risks as we could throughout the
sale lifecycle.’

Are your staff staying with the company and was this an important factor in
the sale process?
‘Yes they are staying and it was very important to ensure the ongoing growth and
success of the company.’

Will you have any involvement in the business post sale and if not what does
the future hold for you?
‘Yes, I will be supporting the business for one or two days per week for the first
year.’

Would you recommend BCMS Corporate’s services to another company
considering selling?
‘Yes. The whole team were very professional and I have already recommended
BCMS Corporate to one potential business seller.’

How satisfied were you with the sale price and terms achieved?
‘Very satisfied; iIt is always possible to see potential improvements but the BCMS
Corporate Deal Leader did an exceptional job.’

What is your overall opinion of BCMS Corporate?
‘A professional company which puts the customer first.’
