PRLog (Press Release) –
Mar 20, 2009 – The current economic climate is prompting many people to reevaluate their careers. Rather than waiting for the job market to improve, an increasing number of recently displaced workers are embarking on business ownership for the first time. Simultaneously, millions of baby boomers who own their own companies are selling their businesses as they prepare to retire. These factors have created tremendous demand for the business buying and selling services that business brokers provide.
Business brokers (

Approximately 20% of the country’s 25 million businesses change hands every year. Economist Robert Avery of Cornell University estimates that $10 trillion of assets and over 12 million privately held companies will be transferred as baby boomers start to retire.
