About
Mel Jones is a business broker of the well-known Paramount Restaurant Brokers business brokerage company who helps people sell their business in AZ and nearest regions. After nearly 9 years in the entertainment industry as a Chief Financial Officer for Universal Music Group, Mel started to search for businesses to buy. Two years later, he realized the business brokerage industry lacked good service, quality brokers, and most important, basic customer relationship and marketing tools. This led Mel to revolutionize the business brokerage industry by using simple customer service and cutting-edge internet marketing concepts. Mel acquired Paramount Restaurant Brokers, Inc. in 2003 and purchased the name SellingRestaurants.com. This business model has been so successful SellingRestaurants in nine short years is now the largest restaurant broker not only in California, but the nation in terms of number of restaurant listings, sales transactions, number of agents, area covered and website traffic with nearly 500 restaurants sold through SellingRestaurants.com. Mel is an accomplished merger and acquisition specialist having completed over $12 Billion of merger and acquisition transactions at the fortune 50 level. In addition to holding senior financial executive and Chief Financial Officer positions for multi-national corporations such as Universal Music Group, the world's largest music recording company and Nestle Foods, one of the largest food companies in the world, Mel has earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Finance from California State University Northridge and he studied law at Gonzaga University School of Law. Mel is a veteran of the U.S. Air Force and the California National Guard. He holds a California, Arizona and Georgia Real Estate Brokers license.
