What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beauty Bungalows's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Special Support Fee includes not only a daily rate per representative but also covers additional expenses. If a Beauty Bungalows franchisee requests in-person support, they will be charged $500 per day for each representative providing the support.
In addition to the daily fee, the franchisee is responsible for the reasonable travel and living expenses incurred by the Beauty Bungalows representatives. These out-of-pocket expenses include costs related to travel, lodging, and meals for the employees providing on-site support.
This fee structure is common in franchising, where franchisors charge for additional support beyond the initial training and ongoing assistance. It is important for prospective Beauty Bungalows franchisees to understand that requesting on-site support can result in significant costs beyond the standard royalty and other fees.
