ABOUT US
Verified Businesses is recognised across Southeast Queensland as a consistent, transparent and results-driven business brokerage that delivers real outcomes for both buyers and sellers. Our reputation is built on openness, integrity and a level of transparency rarely seen in the industry. Every business we represent is supported by a detailed, accountant-ready Information Memorandum that helps buyers and their advisors make confident, well-informed decisions.
Who We Are
Established in 2010, Verified Businesses has always been focused on one thing: Listing quality businesses and successfully selling them.
Not listing for the sake of listing — but listing with purpose and delivering results.
Our Principal, Craig Campbell, has been a leading Sunshine Coast business broker for more than 18 years, backed by a 37-year career in owning, operating and selling businesses. Craig is a Registered Business Valuer (RBV) and Certified Practicing Business Broker (CPBB), bringing strong expertise in valuation, management, marketing and business development.
Supporting Craig is a team of three highly experienced Business Brokers, all former business owners with strong commercial backgrounds and membership with the Australian Institute of Business Brokers (AIBB). This depth of experience gives our clients a powerful advantage when navigating the complexities of buying or selling a business in today’s market.
Our Track Record
Since 2010, Verified Businesses has sold hundreds of businesses and built a reputation as one of the most trusted business brokerages in Southeast Queensland. Our success is driven by professionalism, honesty and a commitment to providing clear, evidence-based guidance at every stage of the process.
Our Buyers – A Powerful Advantage for Sellers
One of our strongest assets is our extensive database of long-term, qualified buyers. Many have purchased multiple businesses through us over the years and remain active, always ready for the right opportunity. These are experienced operators who understand the local market and know what they want.
Alongside our long-standing buyers, we also attract new enquiries every day from individuals looking for businesses across the Sunshine Coast, Brisbane Bayside and Gold Coast regions. Why? because we have proven marketing and advertising strategies that are very effective and help create competition for a business.
A Strong Market – A Strong Opportunity
Right now, Southeast Queensland is experiencing strong demand from interstate and overseas buyers. The Sunshine Coast and Brisbane Bayside continue to attract people looking to secure quality businesses and build their future here.
It is a genuine seller’s market, with more qualified buyers than businesses available for sale. Many find us through referrals from satisfied clients or via Google, where Verified Businesses consistently ranks among the leading business brokerage websites in the region.
