FAQs

What will I receive as part of the BLAST900 THE ULTIMATE WORKOUT franchise system?
We will provide corporate-based training lasting up to 12 days, which includes both classroom and on-the-job training. We will also provide up to four days of onsite help at your studio location around the time of the business launch, in addition to ample ongoing support, including site visits, webinars, and more. As a franchise owner, you will have access to all BLAST900 THE ULTIMATE WORKOUT trademarks, operational tools, and interval training research and techniques. We'll also present you with a copy of our confidential Operations Manual to help you run your studio properly on a day-to-day basis. 

What type of prior experience do I need to have?
We expect that either the franchise owner, or their lead instructor with a minimum 10% financial interest in the business, be a properly certified fitness instructor. We also look for individuals who are passionate about fitness, and have great people skills and solid business management skills. Regardless of your specific background, though, we'll provide you the support you need to run your BLAST900 THE ULTIMATE WORKOUT studio. We do, of course, also expect that you have the right amount of capital to invest in the franchise.

How much will the BLAST900 THE ULTIMATE WORKOUT franchise investment cost me?
The estimated required investment for a franchised studio ranges between $100,000 and $150,000 for a start-up location, ($72,000 to $105,000 if converting an existing fitness studio), including a franchise fee of $30,000. As with any new business venture, it's important that you have the capital needed to adequately fund your new business.

Are there ongoing fees paid to the franchisor?
Franchisees will be required to pay royalties that are equal to 8% of revenues. A music fee of $149 per year will also be required, as well as a $75 per month ongoing software management fee. These fees allow us to fund our ongoing support services and the continued development of procedures, marketing tools, training sessions, and other program updates.

Are there any advertising fees?
Franchisees are required to spend a minimum 1% of revenues on local marketing efforts. Franchisees will also contribute up to 1% of revenues into a system marketing fund. Collected funds are used to develop marketing strategies to promote the BLAST900 THE ULTIMATE WORKOUT brand and fund the creative costs to develop any local franchise marketing materials.

Is financing available?
We do not offer direct financing to franchisees. We may be able to provide references to qualified financing or lending agencies, on a case-by-case basis.
