The benefit of a franchise is that it is a proven system, has a reputation, product recognition and power of a brand name, therefore providing individuals that purchase franchises many benefits over those who start their own businesses from scratch.

Our franchise fee is $40,000.
Our royalty is 7% of weekly gross revenues, which covers continuous ongoing support, development of new procedures, marketing tools, field support, quality assurance, and system upgrades.
Our program requires that franchisees spend 3% of gross revenues for local advertising, promotions, Uni.K.Wax web site maintenance, and public relations.

9. Can you be more specific on the sales and profits (numbers)?
We have decided not to include an earnings claim in our FDD, and for that reason; unfortunately, we are not in a position to discuss sales, expenses, or earnings with you – other than to provide you with published information on our pricing.
10. What if I decide to sell my franchise?
You can decide to sell your franchise at any given time, provided that the buyer is a qualified entity that must be first approved by the franchisor. A transfer fee will apply.
11. What is a FDD (Franchise Disclose Document)?
The FDD is a legal document that is required by the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) and/or the particular State in which you want to open your center and is designed to protect you, the franchisee. It contains 23 categories of information that describes the franchise offering in great detail. It describes the franchisors and the franchisees responsibilities, investment information, financial condition of the franchisor and other valuable information. It contains information on the following areas: contracts, litigation, fees, restrictions, financing, franchisee/franchisor obligations, territory, trademarks, earnings claims, list of all outlets, financial statements, ongoing development and much more. No contracts or fees can be accepted by the franchisor for ten business days from the date you sign the receipt for this document. The ten days affords you the opportunity to study and review this document.
12. May I obtain a copy of the Uni.K.Wax FDD and Franchise Agreement?
Yes, at our first face-to-face meeting we will provide you with a copy of the Uni.K.Wax FDD and franchise agreement. |
