What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Dryject's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees must make Marketing Fund payments in advance on the 15th day of each month. The method of payment is the same as that used for the Royalty Service Fee.
The amount due to the Marketing Fund is the greater of 2% of the monthly Gross Revenues generated by the Franchise Owner or a fixed monthly amount that escalates over the first 3 years. Months 1-3 require no payment. Months 4-12 require a payment of $100 per month. Months 13-24 require a payment of $200 per month. Months 25-36 require a payment of $300 per month. After month 37, the payment is $500 per month.
This escalating payment structure means that new Dryject franchisees will have lower marketing fund obligations early in their business operations, which can help with cash flow during the initial ramp-up period. However, franchisees need to be aware that their marketing fund contributions will increase over time, eventually reaching $500 per month after three years. Franchisees should budget accordingly and ensure that their revenue growth can support these increasing marketing expenses.
