As a seasoned business broker in Phoenix, John understands firsthand the challenges entrepreneurs face—and how to overcome them to reach a successful sale or acquisition.

​

John and his family have lived in Mesa, Arizona since 1989. He earned his Bachelor of Arts in Communications/Advertising from Brigham Young University in 1987.

​

For 19 years, John built, owned, and operated an automotive advertising and direct mail agency serving car dealerships nationwide. What began as a small startup in Arizona grew into a respected marketing firm trusted by clients across the country.

 

John didn’t just run a business—he built it from the ground up. He understands the grind, the late nights, and the constant pressure of making payroll, managing growth, and keeping customers happy. He’s faced the same struggles many business owners experience—uncertain cash flow, hiring challenges, and the weight of leadership.

​

This hands-on, entrepreneurial background gives John deep empathy and insight into the mindset of both business sellers and buyers. He knows what it takes to run a successful business—and what it takes to sell one.

​

Since 2008, John has also completed over 360 real estate transactions as a licensed Arizona Realtor. His real estate expertise includes working with investors on 1031 exchanges, rental portfolios, and trustee sale purchases at the Maricopa County Courthouse.

 

Becoming a business broker in Arizona has allowed John to blend his marketing, real estate, and ownership experience to serve other entrepreneurs at a pivotal point—buying or selling a business.
