I would not invest again. The franchise fees total 8.5%, well above advertised when factoring in all required fees. UPS shipping discounts are not extended to the franchisee and corporate programs look appealing until realizing there is no profit after all supplies and labor.

Number of profit centers and a baseline set of profit centers that are fire and forget.

Franchise management and reimbursement from contracted services that never increases regardless of inflation -- many are loss leaders, great for the brand, bad for the franchisee.

Provide the franchisee with rates and programs that create profit, not just franchise fee revenue.
