Q: Will I have a protected territory for my franchise?

Yes, and that will be further discussed during our qualifying conversations.

Q: What is the recommended location size?

While we do not recommend any “specific” size, it does need to be large enough to accommodate yourself and all of the office equipment, and even your clients. A small office space is best if possible. Otherwise, a Home Office is an option during the first few months.

Including the initial fee of $49,000, your total investment can range from a low of $65,500 to a high of $94,875 provided you negotiate with-in the start-up recommendations. Initial costs will include the Franchise Fee, tenant build-out & leasehold improvements, equipment, furniture, initial inventory and supplies, advertising, required working capital, and more. Please keep in mind the costs do vary based on location, size of unit, suppliers, and other factors. We will strategically work with you in obtaining the lowest costs when possible. If you opt to sign an Area Development Agreement that will allow you to develop from 2 to 5 locations in a designated territory, your total investment will be higher. These amounts do not include fees for additional territory beyond a population of up to 500,000. (Items 5 and 7 of our FDD offer additional information)

Q: What types of fees are associated with operating my franchise once it’s opened?

There is a Continuing License Fee that is a small percentage of Gross Revenues received from the previous week’s operations. There is a Marketing and Technology Fund Fee that is due each month.

At the appropriate time in the interviewing process, you will discuss with A Right Place for Seniors your pre-ownership business plan, which contains the financial aspects of pricing, fixed and variable expenses, and your bill-paying calendar. Respectively, each owner differs monthly on market rent, salaries, advertising, loan repayment, and personal business choices. Your goal is to oversee a low monthly budget and accelerate your break-even point.

Q: How much income will my franchise location generate? How long is the Return on Investment (ROI)?

We do not provide this information or any kind of assumption on this matter.

This will all depend on the type of location that you choose to rent. If say you choose a location in a business park where the offices are already built, then you can be open in a matter of a few weeks. If per chance you choose a location that needs to be built out by the landlord, then it could possibly take up to 10-12 weeks, depending on the urgency of the landlord.

Q: Do you provide a website to support my location?

Yes! You will benefit from the A Right Place for Seniors website as part of your monthly Marketing and Technology Fund Fee which also contains each franchisee’s individual Micro-Site monthly hosting.
