Benchmarking is an essential resource if you are thinking about buying a business. The best starting point is to obtain a copy of the Australian Benchmark Report for the industry or sector your looking at buying into. It can help you to measure the past performance of a business to see how it performed against industry averages. The information you gain from benchmarking makes it easier for you to decide if the business is a good buy.
