Leaving a business behind can feel like closing a major life chapter. For many seasoned entrepreneurs, the next opportunity needs to be meaningful and rewarding. Business brokerage with Murphy Business offers a purposeful career that combines impact with profit.


Why Former Business Owners Thrive in Brokerage

Former business owners bring a unique perspective to brokerage. Their experience navigating the financial, emotional, and legacy aspects of business ownership allows them to guide clients with empathy and insight.

Rather than just facilitating transactions, former owners help clients protect their legacy, secure their financial future, and transition confidently into their next chapter. As Greg Younts, a Georgia-based Murphy Business franchise owner, explains:

“I greatly appreciate the high ethical standards of the Murphy organization and their passionate interest in seeing franchisees succeed.”


The Murphy Business Model: Purpose Meets Profit

The Murphy Business model balances flexibility with financial upside. Many brokers start home-based, keeping overhead low and avoiding inventory or equipment costs. With unlimited earning potential and no commission caps, revenue grows as you build your community of buy- and sell-side clients.

Franchisees benefit from a strong support system:

  • Structured training and onboarding

  • Ongoing coaching and development

  • A collaborative network of experienced brokers

A Virginia-based franchisee notes: “I wanted to control my own destiny and create something of value. Having the Murphy Business team as a safety net made the decision easy.”


Turning Experience Into Service

Murphy Business allows professionals to leverage their experience while making an impact. Marvin Slovacek, Regional Developer in Utah, shares:

“I have been here 12 years, still loving it. We have built an amazing team!”

Jennifer Smith Broeckling, a finance expert and broker, adds:

“Renewing our franchise agreement in 2022 was one of the best decisions we’ve made. It aligns perfectly with our values.”

These stories show how a post-exit career can be both profitable and fulfilling.


Community and Collaboration

Joining Murphy Business means you’re never alone. The franchise network offers collaboration, referrals, and support from professionals who have successfully built and sold businesses. This community ensures you can scale your practice while continuing to make a meaningful impact.


Your Second Act Starts Here

Exiting a business doesn’t mean the end of your impact. With Murphy Business, you can harness your expertise, build a scalable brokerage practice, and continue helping entrepreneurs achieve their goals.
