Under what condition will the monthly fee for a Bigfoot Forestry franchise increase?

According to Bigfoot Forestry's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the monthly technology fee of $350 may increase under certain conditions related to the technology systems required for the business. The base fee covers two email accounts, but if a franchisee needs more than two, Bigfoot Forestry currently charges an additional $7 per additional email account per month. This additional charge is intended to cover the extra costs incurred by the franchisor.

Another potential reason for an increase in the monthly fee is the need for more user licenses for the CRM software as the Bigfoot Forestry business grows. The FDD states that if more user licenses are required, the monthly fee may increase. These fees are subject to change based on pricing changes imposed by the licensor of the software.

Finally, the monthly fee can also vary depending on the version of QuickBooks selected by the franchisee. As with the CRM software, these monthly fees are subject to change based on pricing changes imposed by the licensor. Therefore, franchisees should be aware that the technology fees are not fixed and can fluctuate based on their specific needs and the pricing policies of the software providers.
