What is a business broker and what do they do?
-
Do I possess the skill to operate a successful business brokerage office?
The ideal candidate will have mid-level to senior-level management experience, sales, and financial skills. In addition, prior small business ownership skills translate well to operating a successful business brokerage office. While this is no guarantee that you will be successful, our goal is to only offer our franchisee program to people who have the skills necessary to be successful. -
What can I expect in terms of nights and weekend commitments or travel?
Generally, a business broker is meeting with buyers and sellers during normal business hours. Sometimes we meet with clients after hours or on weekends due to the need to maintain confidentiality or for the convenience of all parties. This is the exception rather than the rule. Travel is generally limited to your local area with the exception of industry conferences and occasionally a business transaction. -
What training will you provide to help me be a successful business broker?
We have an extensive training program designed to teach you the entire process of business brokerage and our related services. You will start with online training which is approximately 80 hours. You will then attend 5 days of classroom training in Clearwater, FL where you will conduct a complete case study.
We provide ongoing training and support, including our highly acclaimed annual educational conference. You will spend 3 days attending numerous seminars that you choose, meet our professional partners and franchisors in our franchise brokerage program, network with the brokers in our system and even have a little fun. -
How do I get clients when I start my business brokerage practice?
We have a proven lead generation system that uses several types of marketing including a systematic direct mail program with telemarketing follow up, all done for you by our staff in the National Team Center. -
How does Murphy business help their business brokerage offices compete with more established brokerage offices in the industry?
In addition to extensive training and support, you will be part of one of the largest and most successful network of business brokers in the nation. The reputation and success of the Murphy brand will give you a leg up on the competition. We have thousands of completed transactions and a reputation for professional and ethical service to our clients. Support and mentorship are always available to you on both a regional and national level. -
