    Benjamin Olson Serving Orange County, FL

    I help owners of automotive, trades, and service businesses across Florida sell successfully and confidently. I focus on positioning businesses correctly, attracting qualified buyers, and closing deals efficiently — no wasted time or unrealistic promises. I graduated from Rollins College with a degree in Economics and gained experience at Millenia Partners in commercial real estate and business brokerage before joining Florida Business Exchange. That experience, combined with my passion for marketing and logical problem-solving, allows me to advise clients with both financial insight and practical strategy. I grew up on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, in a family that valued entrepreneurship — my dad ran his own flooring business, and my mom was an artist and tennis teacher. Moving to Florida for college showed me the opportunities that come from building relationships and working independently. I love business brokerage because it’s dynamic, entrepreneurial, and relationship-driven, and I enjoy helping owners make meaningful decisions about their business and future. I’m a member of the Business Brokers of Florida (BBF) and the International Business Brokers Association (IBBA), staying connected to the professional community while growing my expertise. Outside of work, I’m a car enthusiast and enjoy weightlifting and mixed martial arts. My goal is to become a top producer and business owner while helping clients achieve successful, stress-free business transitions.
