Murphy Business & Financial Corporation (www.murphybusiness.com), the premier business brokerage firm in the U.S., announces the launch of its national franchise program, web site www.murphyfranchise.com. After building a successful business brokerage firm with 30 offices in Florida, President and CEO Roger Murphy has applied his business model nationally by franchising its methodology. Tom Miller, a 25-year veteran of franchising and a recognized authority on franchising in the business brokerage community, is one of Murphy's partners and leads the national expansion program. "Franchise owners can expect a higher success rate than most other entrepreneurs experience, and business-related franchises are among the top five active franchise concepts," says Murphy. "Careers as business brokers offer great potential for success with a relatively low investment. When paired with our proven business and marketing processes, we believe this franchising opportunity is well suited for executives, professionals and other individuals with strong management and business acumen." Unlike a typical business brokerage firm that is often a one or two-person shop, Murphy's franchise model offers centralized administrative support, proven business development processes, access to a database of companies for sale, an in-house business valuation company, a franchise sales division, comprehensive training, operations manuals and a commercial real estate division that assists franchisees and their clients with divesting or leasing properties as well as businesses. "Our model provides the direction, tools and training that compel franchisees to focus on what will make them money, rather than just what they are comfortable doing," says Miller. "By supporting franchisees with successful business development techniques and a turnkey approach, we can, in effect, ‘force' their success." Miller adds that these business development tools include assistance with prospecting, training, direct mail and communications, with a sophisticated in house direct marketing capability. Unlike many franchise opportunities, a career as a business broker offers the opportunity for a successful, long term career, thus attracting outplaced executives, military retirees, current business brokers, real estate brokers, commercial loan officers and other professionals with sales, financial and managerial experience. "Murphy Business & Financial Services has advised business owners and entrepreneurs for years on how and when to buy and sell franchises," adds Murphy. "It's only logical that we would apply that knowledge to our franchised business broker operations. We believe this is an ideal opportunity for the people who want to be in business for themselves, but not ‘by' themselves." Based in Clearwater, Fla., the franchise division of Murphy Business & Financial Services, Inc. (www.murphyfranchise.com) offers a proven methodology, core administrative support, business development and direct marketing to assist its franchisees become successful. Founded by Roger Murphy, a charter member of the Business Brokers of Florida as well as the Institute of Business Appraisers and International Business Brokers Association, Murphy Business expects to have 100 franchisees by the end of 2007.
