Mark Osborne explains what business brokers actually do: match buyers with sellers, assess whether corporate refugees can handle business ownership, evaluate financial health, and juggle countless roles. The job is demanding but rewarding.
Business brokerage is the hardest and most fun job you'll ever find. You wear so many hats. To your point, you're judging buyers, you're figuring out who's— you're a matchmaker. Yeah. Is the person that one you described leaving corporate America, we call them corporate refugees. Is this corporate refugee going to leave his W-2 and take the risk of buying this business, or is he just unhappy today? So, you're really getting into the heads of people.

So you wear a lot of different hats when you're, when you're doing these deals, and it is a lot of fun every day.
