Great organizational communication

Great organizational communication. Especially from Ella mottley. Nice to have someone take ownership of an issue.

Will recommend based on my personal experience.

No support and no way to sift out the time wasters.
We had 15 enquiries - 2 serious. One had valid reason to not proceed. Other had 2 viewings, milked us for how to run a similar business and then ran to start a competitor business - live and learn!
I wouldnt use Daltons again as once they have your cash you are on your own and doesnt really attract people who would not find you anyway.
The time wasters are simply amazing!!

Hi Richard.

Thanks for the review. Our phone lines are open Monday to Friday 9.00am to 5.30pm. We also have a live chat support service available 24/7. I can see from our records that you had numerous contacts with our sales and support teams over the last few weeks contrary to your review. In any case Daltons are always on hand to help and advise our customers. We have helped thousands of business owners to sell successfully. As with selling a house unfortunately not every enquiry will be a serious one. Disappointed we were unable to help in this case. We wish you all the best sir.

Brilliant company

Brilliant company! Very professional, we had one business and a holiday let with them, all sold very quickly and we completed today. Brilliant service, unlike other sites was able to actually speak to someone and get advice on our business sale. They took care of the advert for me as I was unsure what to include and made the whole process very simple. Thank you for your help!

BEWARE, trading on a name, waste of money.

Some of you might remember the printed Daltons Weekly, it was packed with adverts for all things business and like the Exchange & Mart it went digital some years ago.
Last year I wanted to sell my business and found Daltonsbusiness online. I read their claims of success and 'hits' and signed up full of hope and paid what I thought at the time was rather a lot of money.

'The best place to sell your business' was one of the claims...

To keep this short the responses from advertising with this company was pathetic, less, far less in fact than the DIY website I built [that cost me about £1 a month].

Same responses came in duplicate and on the weekly report once again their figures counted one enquiry as two.... interestingly, despite me being able to write sensible and polite responses to the handful of enquirees none replied which made me wonder if they actually existed...

After a while it was clear that I had thrown good money down the drain, I auctioned the business. Eventually I got a partial refund but all in all it was an extremely disappointing and expensive exercise.

So don't be fooled or bamboozled by their claims, I'd guess they hail from times long gone...
