A business
broker is a fully trained intermediary assisting
business owners to sell their business in a
confidential manner to qualified buyers. Not
only do business brokers provide a vital service
to business owners and buyers but they are also
highly sought after by both sellers and buyers.
While you are playing a vital role in the
business community, it is also a very lucrative
career for you – on average business brokers
earn 8%-10% of the overall sales price that
generally ranges between $250K to 2-3 million.
