About Rick

The buying and selling of your business is a process that requires professionalism, knowledge, and the assistance of a well-skilled business broker. Rick will guide you through this process as a seller or a purchaser to ensure you are well-informed and your business is presented to its greatest ability. His belief is that a business requires two major factors: “Price and Presentation.” Get these right, and you will achieve the sale.

With over 20 years in the Hotel and Accommodation industry and, more recently, 9 years in business brokerage sales — including 6 successful years with ABC Business Sales — Rick brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to assist you in your sale or purchase.

Rick's testimonial

Selling our family-owned specialist retail and servicing business was a challenging task. We had been with another Nelson-based broker for 18 months with no progress – it left us frustrated and skeptical about ever finding a buyer. That’s when we switched to Rick Warren from ABC Business Sales Nelson, and it was the best decision we ever made.

From our first meeting, Rick stood out as a genuinely nice guy who was all about getting the job done. His commitment and diligence were unmatched. He provided a realistic evaluation of our business, explaining the valuation in plain language so we understood exactly where we stood in the current market. Unlike the previous broker, Rick didn’t just list the business and hope for the best. He crafted a tailored strategy to showcase the shop’s unique appeal (like our specialized inventory, service contracts and loyal customer base), targeted marketing to buyers through industry networks, and smart suggestions for minor changes to the marketing to boost appeal.

We couldn’t be happier with Rick Warren’s professionalism, work ethic, and results. He turned a seemingly impossible sale into a success. If you’re looking to sell a specialist retail and servicing business and want someone who delivers results with integrity, I wholeheartedly recommend Rick Warren from ABC Business Sales Nelson. Five stars – he’s simply the best!

"Rick Warren from ABC Nelson did an amazing job. We couldn’t be happier with his commitment and diligence in finding a buyer. He is a genuinely nice guy who gets on with the job. He was realistic in his evaluation of our business and explained in plain language where the valuation sat at that current time. He sold our business within weeks of taking over the listing from another Nelson company who had the listing for 18 months. I would highly recommend Rick Warren from ABC Nelson to anybody wanting to get fast results."
