Certified Restaurant Broker Training - New Graduates

Posted by Robin Gagnon on Oct 14, 2020 2:39:09 PM

 

We Sell Restaurants welcomed three new Certified Restaurant Brokers into the ranks this week with the latest round of training. Certified Restaurant Broker Training is the most robust and extensive program in the nation for providing the specialized skills required for Restaurant Brokerage.

The group worked online for two full weeks prior to attending in house training for a full 40-hour curriculum. The first week of training focused on the award-winning book Appetite for Acquisition to prepare the Certified Restaurant Broker® with the mindset of a buyer and the effort needed to prepare for the buying experience and identify the ideal opportunity amidst the thousands of restaurants for sale.

The second week focused on week-long practice and exercises to build confidence and skills on the We Sell Restaurants proprietary software platform called the B.O.S.S. TM or Broker's Operations and Sales System. The Broker's Operations and Sales Systems takes every function of a restaurant broker and reduces the time spent on administrative and marketing tasks so that time and  focus can be spent on buyer and seller interaction. The would-be Certified Restaurant Brokers were tested daily on the knowledge and skills needed to operate the one of a kind system that delivers buyers and sellers to their dashboard.
