Brandi Barker

Agent Market: West Central Ohio

Brandi brings nearly three decades of real-world business experience, including 19 years as a business owner after a decade in the corporate world. She knows firsthand what it takes to build something meaningful, grow it thoughtfully, and transition it with care. Her entrepreneurial journey began with a love of dogs and grew into creating simple, joyful solutions for dog owners. Brandi built her second business on the belief that life is better when time with your dog feels easy and connected—designing lickable treats that turn everyday moments into calmer, more enjoyable experiences. That work strengthened her appreciation for trust, simplicity, and guiding people through moments that matter. After successfully selling her business with the help of Transworld Business Advisors, Brandi joined the Transworld West Central Ohio team to support business owners considering buying, selling, or growing, always with clarity, care, and respect for what they’ve built. When she’s not helping buyers and sellers find the right fit, you’ll find Brandi hiking with her rescue dog, Mabel, volunteering at a local animal sanctuary, tending her garden (with Mabel’s enthusiastic hose supervision), and writing about finding joy in everyday life. She also publishes a newsletter to help rescue dogs find their perfect match. Brandi holds a Bachelor’s Degree from Ohio University and a Master’s Degree from DePaul University. If you’re wondering what’s next for your business, even if you’re just starting to explore the idea, Brandi would love to walk alongside you.
