What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Pump It Up's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the estimated initial investment for travel and living expenses during training ranges from $0 to $2,700. This cost covers travel and accommodation for you and your employees while attending required training courses. The FDD notes that these expenses are paid to third parties and are incurred during the training period.
The wide range in estimated costs reflects different training scenarios. The low end of $0 assumes that you complete your training remotely and do not need to travel. However, if in-person training is required, the actual expenses will vary based on factors such as the distance traveled, mode of transportation, type of accommodations, the number of employees attending, and their wages. These factors can significantly impact the overall cost.
Prospective Pump It Up franchisees should consider these variables when budgeting for their initial investment. If in-person training is necessary, it's prudent to research travel and accommodation costs in the training location to develop a more accurate estimate. Franchisees should also clarify with Pump It Up the expected duration and location of training to better anticipate these expenses.
