John B. Charleston, III, MBA
John founded Murphy Business North Fulton County after a career that spans Fortune 100 brand management, technology finance and business ownership. In 2005 he acquired a 200-employee company and ran it — an experience that shapes how he advises sellers today.
He works as a financial analyst and strategic marketing partner as much as a broker, consolidating complex operating data into institutional-quality models that withstand buyer scrutiny.
