What the sessions cover

The work itself – What business brokers do day to day—from valuing and preparing businesses for market to finding and screening buyers, protecting confidentiality, and managing transactions through closing.

How your experience may translate – Which skills from leadership, finance, sales, operations and other professional backgrounds can be relevant—and where you may have something new to learn.

Training and support – How Murphy helps franchise owners learn the business, including onboarding, coaching, ongoing training and access to an experienced network.

Business ownership – How the franchise model works, what it means to build a brokerage practice of your own, and what to consider as you evaluate the opportunity.

Real perspectives – Some sessions feature Murphy Business owners sharing their experiences, what they’ve learned and what the work is actually like.

Who these sessions are for

These sessions are designed for experienced professionals, executives and business owners who have carried meaningful responsibility—leading teams or operations, managing financial performance, working with business owners, evaluating opportunities, or building something of their own—and who are considering what they want to do next.

You do not need a background in business brokerage, and you do not need to have decided that business ownership is right for you. These sessions are an opportunity to learn, ask questions and decide whether the Murphy Business franchise opportunity is worth exploring further. There is no obligation to move forward.
