Services
Selling your business is a pretty big deal, don't be fooled into thinking that selling a caf is the same as selling any other business. Whilst there are parts of the transaction that are standard there are also a lot of differences when selling cafes. Don't underestimate the advantage of working alongside a specialist in your industry.
Learn more about the services we offer businesses when supporting, growing, and directing your business' success. The GSE Hub is designed to help hospitality owners through every stage of their journey. The Hub provides tools, resources and coaching to help you maximise the results from your business.
GSE Business Consultants specialise in working with Cafe owners to make sure that they get the best return possible when they sell their cafe. We can either work with you to guide you through the process of selling the business yourself (on our Six Steps to Sale Program) or, we can act as a broker for you and deal with everything from start to finish.
We specialise in matching buyers just like yourself with the owners of cafes that are selling their businesses. If you know exactly what it is you are looking for then the more information you can give us the better. Many of the cafes that we work with will not be found on the internet, if we know what you are after there is a good chance we will be able to match you up with your ideal caf very quickly.

Fantastic experience with Paul and his team using the Six Steps process. It was well run and easy to follow and we were able to secure a buyer within just a few weeks - with Paul there for every and any question we had. Highly recommended.

Where do I even start!!!! I started one on one coaching with Paul at the start of the year during a pandemic in regional Vic. The business wasn’t failing but I wanted more (don’t we all). At first I didn’t think I could afford one on one training financially but I was putting money into everything but my own personal development so I bit the bullet. After only a couple of months my profit jumped 3 to 4 times what it was prior to teaming up with Paul so whilst yes I originally I thought it was expensive I soon realised the value that Paul brought to the business as well as me personally was

The six steps program was instrumental throughout every aspect of the sale process. It was very beneficial to be able to log back in at any stage and revisit vital pieces of info. Paul and his team are very knowledgeable and responsive throughout the entire process, I am extremely grateful for an avenue to navigate through this process on my own. The six steps are a necessity to prepare you business and carry it through to achieve the desired result. Massive thanks to Paul and his team for there guidance and support. I could not recommend GSE enough.

Fantastic service, unbelievable knowledge and a strong passion with a willingness to help. Paul mentored me through the 6 steps to sale program. Not only was it a easy process to go through, it was also extremely cost effective. Paul was really helpful and supportive along the short journey to sale we had. The 6 step program was a fantastic way to understand the sale of a business and the process to go through. I strongly recommend Paul and the GSE team to sell/assist anyone in selling their hospitality business.
Thanks again Paul.

I totally recommend Paul and the 6 Steps to Sale Programme.
Right from the first introduction and the set up of my IM Paul supported and encouraged me. Paul's knowledge of the industry is second to none.
At times when I thought the deal was going to fail Paul gave me strategies to keep moving forward. It was a very difficult sale to get over the line but with the help of Paul and Gill and the tools provided through the GSE Hub I was able to close the deal.

We are indebted to the Six Steps Program for helping us to navigate the daunting task of selling our business. We highly recommend Paul, and this program. It was only a matter of weeks from the first online advertisements being posted before we had a successful sale. Our heartfelt thanks to Paul and Gill for making this possible.

Paul and his team are experienced, knowledgeable, driven and have an excellent network they have built from the ground up. I enlisted Paul to sell my business just before the pandemic in 2020 and even during this difficult time, he continued working toward a sale. He knows the industry, is a straight shooter and conducts business in such a way that appeals to both the seller and the buyer. People talk about brokers being expensive and I was of the same mindset prior to my experience with Paul but seeing how much work he put in to get my sale across the line, I truely believe it’s money well spent

I sold my business with Pauls help through the Six Step Program. The money I spent on the program paid for itself many times over and helped me get a great result. Being able to call on an experts advice on how to handle the sale was critical to making it happen. If you are motivated and willing to put the time in to sell your business yourself then the Six Step Program is something you should consider.

For a small business that couldn't afford high-priced brokerage, GSE's DIY service was absolutely perfect. Intuitive, easy to use and with constant, expert guidance from Paul it was exactly what we needed. Paul himself was brilliant. Even though I'm sure we weren't at the top of the pile when it came to value for money customers for him, he was always interested, attentive and helpful in all his proactive contact with us. He provided a helpful source of guidance, was easily reachable and had a genuine interest in our business and its sale. While our eventual buyer came from our own personal networks

I cant recommend GSE Business Consultants highly enough. The six step process was easy to follow and very enlightening even if your not thinking of selling, it was well worth the money. GSE have been there for me all the way through, I never felt alone during the selling process. Thank you Paul and team, I got the best of both worlds - I had total control of the selling my cafe but with 100% backing of an experienced broker at a fraction of the cost.
