Douglas Berger

As President of Transworld Business Advisors of Murfreesboro, I help business owners across Middle Tennessee buy, sell, and grow companies with clarity and confidence. My mission is simple: to guide entrepreneurs through high-stakes decisions; whether it's preparing for exit, acquiring a business, or expanding through franchising. Before Transworld, I spent decades building businesses of my own; my first venture goes back more than 30 years. That hands-on experience gave me a deep appreciation for what it takes to build something from the ground up and how important it is to exit well when the time is right. I've also served in leadership roles in corporate sales and operations, including as GM of Broward Motorsports Treasure Coast and VP of Sales at RpmOne (Interstate National). I founded Traction Control Consulting, LLC, which I still run today to support business owners with performance strategy and leadership development. More recently, I became a licensed real estate agent with Red Realty. So many business sales involve real property, the building, the land, the commercial space a buyer needs and I wanted to be able to guide clients through that part of the deal myself instead of handing it off. I'm also expanding into commercial real estate sales, a natural extension of the relationships I've built through brokerage work. Today, I combine my entrepreneurial roots, corporate experience, and real estate license to deliver a practical, results-driven approach to business advising, brokerage, and real estate.
