Joseph Guarino

Principal, President & CEO

Joe is the founder and principal at LINK Business, Pennsylvania East and LINK Licensing. His passion for business strategy and working with the owners of small-to-mid market businesses inspired him to start a new LINK office in Eastern Pennsylvania, and to collaborate with LINK as the Master Licensor for the US market. His background as a business executive leading growth, profit improvement and exit in small to mid-market companies has provided a unique perspective on business transactions. Joe and his team understand the perspective of founders, owners, and individual, financial and strategic buyers, and LINK aspires to optimize transaction outcomes.

Earlier in his career, Joe led a variety of small to midsize businesses to rapid, profitable growth, and, in several cases, through an exit strategy. He started his career with a Fortune 500 company holding roles in sales management, marketing and general management, prior to deciding that smaller companies better suited his style and skill sets.

Joe holds an MBA with focus in marketing and strategy from Goizueta Business School of Emory University, and an undergraduate degree in Communication Arts from Villanova University.
