Franchise Fees vs. Franchise Royalties…

So the question is what do you need to know about franchise fees androyalties?  So you are looking into fitness franchises and you are curious about these initial franchise fees and royalties.  First of all the initial franchise fee is what buys you into the fitness franchise model.  This fee basically purchases you the training, the applications and the complete operation manuals of the franchise model.  This fee should also buy you a specific allotted territory so the franchisee can rest assured that the franchisor will not sell another franchise unit within their territory.  The last thing a franchisee should want is for a another franchise to move in too close to them because it could impact their business negatively.  The franchise fee usually also includes payment for the franchisor to send a knowledgeable associate to oversee the franchisee’s grand opening.

 

After you understand what is included in the franchise fee then it is important you understand the specific royalty you will be paying to the franchisor.  This amount of money is important because the percentage is based on your gross total income not your net.  This royalty fee basically is the life line of the franchise and pays for the continued support in advertising and other fascits of your business. 

 

These fees are very important to compare when you are shopping for a fitness franchise or any franchise for that matter.  These numbers could be what makes your decision from one franchise to another.  Good luck in finding the right franchise for you if that’s what your business future holds.  If you are interested in getting into the fitness industry then check out illuminate gym at www.illuminategym.com/franchises.php.  I guarantee our franchisee fee and royalty fees are among the lowest in our industry.  Good luck to you and have a healthy day!
