What we do for sellers
Our experience in the Newsagency industry is our legacy. We rate second to none with our depth of knowledge in the field, specialising with up to date industry issues and lending availability, with contacts for eligible loans. Every newsagency is run differently. We specialise in presenting your business, so your buyer will understand it. This enables buyers to see individually how they can relate to YOUR Business for Sale.
In NSW we have been the leader in Sales for the past 20 years. We can assure you of maximum effort and coverage.
If you are thinking about selling soon, contact us so we can prepare the best exit strategy for you.
How we do it
We discuss your business with you and then send an Information Kit which asks for documentation, so we can appraise the business. Once completed we discuss the result and if you wish to continue the selling process, we arrange a store visit to suit. At the store we discuss the business and familiarise completely with your store’s presentation and surroundings. We take professional standard photos for our website.
We create a professional Business Profile and send it to prospective purchasers who have expressed keen interest and have signed a Confidentiality Agreement.
In our Business Profile we include a graph which shows a footprint of the income and expenses. There are no rights or wrongs as a standard benchmark. Businesses have different operating procedures showing different results. A purchaser will need to look at an operation allowing flexibility to suit their requirements as their commitments may be different to those in the Graph. Talk with us about how we can assist.
The graph above shows the percentages of all expenses to the gross Profit. The example above is not related to your business. No two Businesses are the same.
How does this help your business?
What are the right percentages for your business operation to be at its best performance? Wages too high, Expenses not right, Rent reduction needed? BPA’s Biz Pac can get the best results for you. We can re-construct your model from what is NOT working to what is best for your store and more importantly show you the different ways your store could be run by others as each business is individual.

Retail Store Analysis –A most important step is to have a retail performance footprint to start with to decide what you need. Is it more cards, less magazines, another new product using the same space? Is your space performing for the best return per sq.m. of space allocated? With BPA data we can change the space allocation to increase the profit in the current business’s total area. Ask us how!

How we do it
Flexibility is the Key.
How easy it would be if the same size fits all however we are all individual.
Our individual benchmarking programme has been written to assess your current business against comparable proven key performance indicators. These KPI results will enable BPA to identify areas that need immediate attention. These indicators, when applied to your business, produce a better business’s individual performance as a starting point. This is the footprint needed to establish the pathway to reinvigorate your business assisting business growth in retail performance, sales and profits and helping reduce costs. These results will produce a business’s best performance. The report will identify “out of norm” expenses, wages, rent or others that need review or simply that the sales mix and profit are not performing according to the space allocated.

Len Baggerson - Trade Printing QLD
“By restructuring our business from loss to profit within 6 weeks turnaround BPA satisfied the Bank and Creditors that we were profitable and operable in a very difficult trading situation. BPA monitored our business monthly for a period of 8 months in which we were able to redirect our business’s focus by knowing where we were at.”

Mike and Michele newsagents - NSW
“We credit BPA’S Business Performance Analysis in getting us started in understanding our business efficiencies and more so what to do with them. After studying the Report on space allocation and performance, we were motivated to introduce new lines and improve the space allocated for existing ones. We are very happy with the results since October 2009. We can recommend their analysis report to any serious retailer. ”
Geoff Hilder - Newsagent Sydney NSW
“BPA has been instrumental in achieving a workable rent payment in very unusual and difficult circumstances. It was an agreeable result that suited both parties. This was achieved by BPA demonstrating our business performance and its contribution to the retailing sector within the shopping complex.”
