Bumble_Roofing Franchise · 2025 FDDAnswer from 2025 FDD Document
"Gross Sales" includes all Sales or roofing products and services recorded in the customer relationship management ("CRM") software account for each franchisee. Each "Sale" was accepted by the customer during the reporting period. The Sale may be a completed project or service sale, or it may be a sale that has been accepted by the customer but not yet completed by the end of the reporting period. Sales not completed may be awaiting a permit or scheduling of installation.
"Jobs Sold" refer to all the individual customer roofing projects or service tickets recorded in the CRM that make up the Gross Sales for each franchise outlet.
"Average Sale" is calculated by dividing the Gross Sales by the number of Jobs Sold for each franchise outlet. All the franchise outlets began operating during the reporting period and some were open for as little as three months. The "# Months in operation" reflects the months of operation during the reporting period for each of the franchise outlets.
Some outlets have earned this amount. Your individual results may differ. There is no assurance that you'll earn as much.
We will, upon reasonable request, provide to you written substantiation for the information provided in this Item 19.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bumble Roofing's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, "Gross Sales" includes all sales of roofing products and services recorded in the customer relationship management (CRM) software account for each franchisee. A sale is counted when it is accepted by the customer during the reporting period. This includes both completed projects and service sales, as well as sales accepted by the customer but not yet completed by the end of the reporting period, such as those awaiting a permit or scheduling of installation.
This definition is important for prospective franchisees as it clarifies how Bumble Roofing measures and reports revenue. It means that even if a roofing project isn't fully finished within the reporting period, the sale is still included in the gross sales figure as long as the customer has accepted it. This can provide a more comprehensive view of a franchisee's sales activity.
It is important to note that the FDD also states that individual results may vary, and there is no assurance that a franchisee will earn as much as the amounts presented. Bumble Roofing will provide written substantiation for the information in Item 19 upon reasonable request. Prospective franchisees should carefully consider these factors and conduct their own due diligence before investing in a Bumble Roofing franchise.
