What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Degree Wellness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the initial training fee, ranging from $8,000 to $8,000, is due in a lump sum at the signing of the Franchise Agreement. This fee is payable to Degree Wellness.
In addition to the initial training fee, franchisees should anticipate expenses for the training program itself. These expenses, estimated between $1,500 and $5,000, cover transportation, meals, and lodging for the franchisee and one additional person to attend the training program in Michigan. These costs are paid to third-party providers as they are incurred.
Prospective franchisees should factor both the initial training fee and the associated training program expenses into their initial investment calculations. Understanding when these payments are due is crucial for managing cash flow during the initial stages of establishing a Degree Wellness studio.
