What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Spray Net's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a franchisee obtains jobs through the Lowe's partnership program, the commission rates are set by Lowe's. The franchisee is obligated to pay Lowe's the commission amounts determined by Lowe's for any jobs the franchisee secures through this partnership.
This arrangement means that Spray Net franchisees do not have the ability to negotiate commission rates with Lowe's. The commission structure is predetermined by Lowe's, and franchisees must adhere to these rates if they choose to participate in the program and accept jobs sourced from Lowe's.
Prospective franchisees should consider the implications of these commission rates on their profitability when evaluating the Lowe's partnership program. Understanding the specific commission percentages and how they might affect revenue is crucial for making informed business decisions. Franchisees should seek clarification from Spray Net regarding typical commission rates and potential revenue from Lowe's sourced jobs.
