1. Why a franchise?
Franchises have the highest success rates and the lowest failure rates of any business in North America today. Some statistics have shown that among all franchises, greater than 90% of all Franchises are still in business after five years. Compare that to a typical start-up where the vast majority of startup non-franchised businesses fail in the first five years, you can see that for your best chance at success a franchise is the only way to go. By deciding to become a franchisee, you have made the smart decision to follow a proven, verifiable business system. Further, you have access to a complete support team that has a vested interest in your success for the life of your franchise business. Simply put, a franchise provides a new business owner the ability to get into their own business for themselves but not by themselves.

2. Why should I pay royalties?
Royalties are the magic that makes the formula work. What would it cost you to hire a management, marketing, advertising, and customer support team? The answer is … a lot more than a typical owner would ever spend! How much would you put back into the business? You certainly couldn’t hire this group for under 10% of your gross revenue. The wonder of royalties is that instead of an individual owner footing the bill to run his or her business the expense is shared with all of the franchisees within the organization.

3. Who is the Perfect Daily Grind Candidate?
We are looking for people who clearly understand that the key to success is to give more than is expected and to expect more than everyone else.

4. How Much Money can I Make?
This is the most frequently asked question and franchising allows the perfect way to get the answer. While the Federal Trade Commission and various states regulate franchise sales activity and restrict our ability to provide any estimated profit figures we do encourage all serious candidates to contact our existing franchisees during their due-diligence process. We will provide you a complete list of our franchisees with names and phone numbers. This is wonderful opportunity to ask all of the “real questions”, such as: How much money can I make?
