About Murphy Business Sales

Murphy Business Sales is a franchise opportunity for experienced business owners, executives, and professionals who want to own and operate a business brokerage.

Business brokers help business owners confidentially prepare for and navigate the sales of their companies and help buyers pursue business ownership through acquisition. The work brings together business knowledge, relationship building, problem-solving, valuation, marketing, negotiation, and transaction management.

Prior business brokerage experience is not required to run a Murphy Business franchise unit. Franchisees receive structured training, established systems, ongoing coaching and professional development, marketing resources, and access to a collaborative national network.

The franchise has a lean operational footprint, with no inventory or traditional retail storefront required. Franchise owners may operate from a professional home office where permitted.

You bring the business experience. We teach business brokerage.

Benefits

Murphy provides structured training and ongoing support to help franchise owners learn the specialized work of business brokerage and establish their practices.

Training begins with approximately 40 hours of virtual training and continues with 40 hours of in-person classroom training. Key areas include:

  • Business valuation
  • Seller engagement and listing processes
  • Confidential marketing
  • Buyer qualification
  • Transaction management
  • Deal-related conversations and negotiations
  • Business development and relationship building

Following initial training, franchise owners have access to ongoing coaching, experienced support brokers, continuing education and professional development, operational resources, marketing tools, and the broader Murphy franchise network.

When a transaction presents an unfamiliar industry, situation, or level of complexity, franchise owners can rely on experienced colleagues throughout the network for perspective and support.

As your practice develops, you can choose how you want to build it while continuing to draw on Murphy's systems, resources, training, and collaborative network.

Training and support do not guarantee business performance or financial results. Financial results vary. See the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) for details.
