This payment is in consideration for branded items that Beem Light Sauna will supply to the franchisee. These items include a pop-up tent, event banners, and other promotional materials designated to support grassroots and community outreach events. The specific items included in the presale kit will be determined by Beem Light Sauna.
This payment is required prior to the opening of the studio, as specified by Beem Light Sauna. The FDD also states that the franchisee may be required to purchase additional products or equipment from Beem Light Sauna, its affiliates, or designated vendors for an additional fee before opening the studio.
It is important to note that the FDD explicitly states that Beem Light Sauna has no obligation to refund the Presale Kit Payment, in whole or in part, for any reason. This means that even if the studio opening is delayed or does not occur, the franchisee may not be able to recover this $6,000 payment. Prospective franchisees should carefully consider this non-refundable aspect and the potential costs of additional required purchases before investing in a Beem Light Sauna franchise.
