What is the estimated cost range for the total initial investment for a standard Brain Balance center?

According to Brain Balance's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the estimated initial investment for a standard Brain Balance Center is not provided as a total range in the excerpts. However, Item 7 includes a table that lists each expense and its associated cost, which can be used to calculate the total estimated initial investment.

Item 7 provides detailed notes on various expenses, such as the cost of program kits, technology fees, and construction costs. For example, franchisees should budget for program kits, with In Center Program Kits costing $250 each and Virtual Program Kits costing $425 each. The document also notes that construction costs are based on following recommended build-out guidelines for a leased space between 1,500 and 2,500 square feet, with leasing costs estimated between $10 and $50 per square foot, though this may be higher in major metropolitan areas.

Prospective franchisees should carefully review each line item in Item 7 and consider their specific circumstances, such as location and build-out choices, to develop an accurate estimate of their initial investment. It is important to note that these costs do not include ongoing expenses such as payroll, rent, and utilities, which are covered in Note 16. Consulting with existing Brain Balance franchisees and the franchisor can provide further clarity on potential costs and help in creating a realistic budget.
