Sell Smarter, Not Harder – Partner with Benchmark International.
The partnership marks a significant step forward for both businesses. Brilliant gains access to global scale and wider strategic resources, while Brand Revolution strengthens its digital expertise with the addition of a highly respected, culturally aligned team.
Benchmark International played a pivotal role in managing the process from initial engagement through to completion, running a competitive process and navigating unforeseen challenges with agility and expertise. The team ensured a strong result by securing the right strategic partner and managing negotiations to preserve value and momentum throughout.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better partner than Benchmark. From the outset, their team (and Will in particular) were clear, commercially astute, and genuinely invested in achieving the best possible outcome for us. They took the time to deeply understand our business and how to effectively position it for sale in the market. The process was well-structured and proactive. We always felt informed and supported, even during the more complex stages.” Mike Davis, Managing Director of Brilliant Social Media Limited
