CAPE TOWN, South Africa – Aldes Business Brokers, the largest business brokerage in South Africa with more than forty franchises around the country, has held their annual conference in March to honor their most successful franchisees. Aldes Atlantic, a Cape Town based Aldes franchise, has walked away with the top franchisee honors for the second year running.
“We’ve had another great year in 2013” said Andrew Hubbard, the franchise principal. “When it comes to the sale of a business, we make extensive use of the internet to drive our marketing and it has really worked well for us.” Spending heavily on Google Adwords, Aldes Atlantic is in a league of their own when it comes to marketing businesses for sale on the internet.
Aldes Atlantic has developed a proprietary web-based software system to handle the thousands of inquiries they receive during the year. This enables them to match buyers and sellers in a well-structured way with no-one falling through the cracks of forgotten tasks. Their software caters for automated email responses with matched links to various businesses for sale.
Recently Aldes Atlantic employed the services of digital marketing specialists’ puzhr.com to increase their generic search results. Having experienced the power of Google through their Adwords campaign, the next milestone is to drive even more buyers and sellers to their website via generic search results. “We are really happy engaging with puzhr.com as they fully understand the place of digital marketing in the sales process. They are a top class digital marketing agency who has taken time to understand the intricacies business brokers deal with daily.”
Having recently moved to new upmarket offices in Century City, Aldes Atlantic is poised for another good year in 2014. “We believe that credit constraints will ease in 2014 making it easier for buyers to fund purchases and to grow acquired businesses. This in turn will drive employment growth, something very necessary for South Africa.
