What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Learningrx's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the initial franchise fee for a satellite location is $5,000. This fee is paid to Learningrx.
In addition to the initial franchise fee, a Learningrx franchisee establishing a satellite location should anticipate other initial investments. These include an initial marketing campaign of $15,000, security deposit, first month’s rent or real estate and improvements of $15,000, furniture and fixtures of $10,000, signage of $5,000, miscellaneous opening costs of $1,000, insurance policies of $1,500, computer equipment and proprietary software of $2,500, and additional funds for the first three months of $20,000.
These costs add up to a total estimated initial investment of $75,000 for a Learningrx satellite location. It is important to note that all fees and costs are non-refundable under all circumstances. The low estimate of $0 for training expenses is based on the assumption that the attendee is the owner of a Satellite location, which has no requirement to travel to Colorado Springs, Colorado to attend training, or purchase the training materials.
