Travis Bryenton — Business Broker

Helping Founder-Led Business Owners Exit with Clarity and Confidence

​

Travis Bryenton is a business broker based in Atlanta, Georgia, specializing in the sale of founder-led, owner-operated, and lifestyle businesses. He is a member of the Georgia Association of Business Brokers (GABB) and the International Business Brokers Association (IBBA), and focuses on main-street and middle-market transactions ranging from $100,000 to $5 million and beyond.

​

Travis's niche is businesses where identity, lifestyle, and location intersect with value — particularly in outdoor retail, fly-fishing shops, guide services, outfitters, and active-lifestyle businesses. He represents sellers nationwide, bringing a rare combination of industry knowledge and transaction expertise to a market that most generalist brokers don't understand.

​

Why Business Brokerage

Travis brings an unusual background to business brokerage. Before entering real estate and brokerage, he spent over fifteen years as a sales representative in the outdoor and active sports industries, working with brands including Columbia Sportswear, Teva, Merrell, and Wolverine. He built TJ3 Sales into a respected agency serving some of the country's top specialty retailers — giving him firsthand knowledge of how outdoor and lifestyle businesses operate, what drives their value, and what buyers in that space are actually looking for.

​

That industry experience is now the foundation of his brokerage practice. When Travis advises a fly shop owner or outdoor retailer on an exit, he understands the business from the inside — not just the financials.

​

What Travis Does Differently

Most business brokers treat every deal the same way. Travis's approach is built around the intersection of real estate, leases, and business value — a combination that is especially important for location-dependent businesses like retail shops, outfitters, and guide services. Lease terms, renewal options, and assignment rights can make or break a transaction, and Travis's background in commercial real estate gives his clients an edge most brokers can't offer.

​

His focus is on preparation and decision clarity — helping owners understand not just how to sell, but when to sell, and whether waiting or preparing further creates better outcomes.

Based in Atlanta. Working Nationwide.

Travis has lived in Atlanta's Buckhead neighborhood since 2009 with his wife, an Atlanta native. When he's not working with business owners on exit strategy, you'll find him fly fishing in the mountains around Asheville, NC, or hiking with his family. That connection to the outdoor lifestyle isn't just personal — it's professional. It's why sellers of outdoor and lifestyle businesses trust him to understand what they've built and find the right buyer to carry it forward.
