What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Brain Balance's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the minimum gross sales reported for a Brain Balance center in 2023 was $98,705. This figure represents the lowest-performing center out of the 70 centers included in the overall analysis. The FDD also breaks down the performance of centers into thirds. The lowest performing third had a minimum gross sale of $98,705.
It is important to note that this data was compiled from voluntary reporting by franchisees, data from the Customer Relations Management System, and in some cases, audits conducted by Brain Balance. The FDD also indicates that one center that closed in November 2023 was included in the data, even though it was not open for the entire year. Five centers that closed during the year and did not operate for the full year were excluded from the data.
Prospective franchisees should be aware that these figures represent past performance and that individual results may vary. The FDD explicitly states that there is no assurance that a franchisee will earn as much as the figures presented. It is crucial for potential franchisees to conduct their own due diligence and consider various factors, such as location, market conditions, and management skills, when evaluating the potential financial performance of a Brain Balance center.
