Nobody knows the Business
like Murphy Business

Murphy Business Sales is North America’s leading, full-service Business Broker Franchise. What started in Florida in 1994 as a network of Business Brokers quickly grew to become one of the largest and most trusted franchise networks of independently owned and operated Business Broker Franchises.

Traditionally, business brokers have helped buyers and sellers with small businesses, and many of our competitors still follow this pattern. At Murphy Business, we offer a business model that not only provides the structure and support to handle the needs of small to mid-market businesses but the complexities of significantly larger deals as well.

This flexibility allows Murphy Business Brokers the opportunity to earn higher commissions by moving upmarket and engaging with larger businesses.

Some Murphy Business Brokers become mergers and acquisitions (M&A) experts assisting larger companies (typically with revenues over $5 million) while others choose to focus on Main Street (typically under 1M) or Mid-Market. Whichever you choose, we’ll be here to support you every step of the way.

Our Commitment to Excellence means always putting the client first

At Murphy Business, we take great pride in our work and strive to provide exceptional service and always get the best possible results for our clients.

Think of us as the business opportunity you never had. Until today

With a low cost of entry and minimal overhead, becoming a Murphy Business Broker is not only one of the most rewarding professions, but it can also be very lucrative.

Murphy Business Brokers often start as home-based businesses, this allows you to keep your overhead low, while you focus on growth and maximize your profits. You don’t need employees, there’s no inventory to maintain or equipment to purchase.

Our flexible business model allows you to choose how you want to structure your business and how quickly you want to grow it. Do you want to be a sole proprietor? Maybe add an agent or two as you build out your market? Or do you see yourself building a team of agents in multiple territories? The choice is yours. And if you add agents, we’ll train them for you.

  • Unlimited Earning Potential

  • Low cost of entry

  • Low Overhead
