Training & Support
Sunbelt offers its office owners comprehensive initial and ongoing training opportunities. All new Sunbelt office owners attend a total of six days of new office owner training at our Corporate offices. The first three days of this training are devoted to understanding the business brokerage process and developing fundamental skills in that area. The last two days are devoted to office management, broker recruitment/development and understanding the various systems Sunbelt utilizes.
Beyond initial training, each month we host a 3-day, broker training session in various offices around the United States. All of our broker training sessions incorporate IBBA training materials, are taught by IBBA certified instructors and are eligible for IBBA credit. We supplement our live training sessions with multi-media training modules that focus on specific aspects of the business brokerage process.

Why Sunbelt Business Advisors?
There has never been a more exciting time to be a business broker. A large percentage of the wealth in this and other countries is represented by small to medium-sized businesses. As our country matures and the "Baby Boom" generation moves into retirement, we will witness the greatest transfer of wealth the world has ever seen. The opportunity for the business brokerage community is unparalleled as small to medium-size business owners will require competent and professional assistance in the transfer of their most valuable assets to interested parties. Experienced business brokers and intermediaries are sought out by anyone seriously looking to sell a business.
In addition, corporate downsizing has created a large supply of ready, willing and able buyers who are looking to replace their corporate incomes. For some, it is almost a necessity to buy a business rather than attempt to re-enter the workforce late in the career lifecycle. As technology continues to improve productivity, large corporations will continue to implement automation and robotics in a way that reduces overhead including, but not limited to, personnel. When you sum it all it up, it's a great time to be a business broker.
The old saying - "the pioneer takes all the arrows" - definitely applies to going into business for yourself. Although it is very exciting to take on the world as an entrepreneur, it is equally comforting to know that you are not alone. Franchises are proven business systems that have withstood the test of time. As a Sunbelt franchisee, you are in business for yourself, but not by yourself. The main reason people buy a franchise, as opposed to starting a new non-franchised business, is to reduce risk while simultaneously maximizing the chance of success. At Sunbelt, our franchise system has been successfully growing for nearly 15 years. We teach you everything you need to know to open your Sunbelt office, get busy and start helping people to buy and sell businesses.
