Q – Do I have to pay any franchise fees up front or royalty fees after my store is open?
A –  No.  Our business model is designed so that you only pay a one time fee.  With a franchise you would have to pay 8% of your monthly sales to their corporate office every month. With our package you pay no fees.

We recommend you allocate some of that saved money towards advertising your new business in your own local market.
