What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Body20's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Presale Kit Payment is for branded items to support community outreach events. Prior to opening a Body20 studio, a franchisee must pay the Presale Kit Payment, as specified in Appendix A. The payment covers branded items that Body20 will supply to the franchisee, including 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 Body20.
The Presale Kit Payment is $6,000, plus actual shipping costs. This payment is non-refundable. In addition to the Presale Kit, franchisees may be required to purchase additional products or equipment from Body20, its affiliates, or designated vendors before opening their studio, which would incur additional fees.
This requirement ensures that all Body20 franchisees have the necessary materials to promote their new studio effectively within their local community prior to opening. By providing branded promotional items, Body20 aims to create a consistent brand presence and support franchisees in generating initial interest and membership sign-ups. The non-refundable nature of the payment means that franchisees should carefully consider their budget and business plan before committing to the franchise.
