What type of franchise is available?
We franchise the right to operate a business that provides
portable miniature golf courses set-up on site for birthday
parties, corporate, school and special events. The franchise
or “franchised business” does business under the
trade name, Putt-2-Go®, and also uses our other related
service marks, trademarks or logos (collectively called the
“Marks”). You will operate the franchise from a
home office. The franchise operates using our standards and
business methods, called our “System.”
How much does the franchise cost?
The estimated initial investment for a franchise is from $65,100
to $95,500. This includes a franchise fee from $25,000 to
$40,000.
How much is the fee for continuing support services?
The continuing services or “royalty fee,” is 5%
of your gross sales and is paid weekly. This fee entitles
you to use the “Putt-2-Go®” service mark, use
of distinctive system, marketing assistance, ongoing business
development and counseling, and other benefits that come with
being a Putt-2-Go franchise.
Will I have an exclusive territory?
You will not receive an exclusive territory. You will receive
one of four types of areas that we offer which vary in population
and corresponding franchise fee. We will grant you a territory
(called an “area of primary responsibility” or “area”),
defined by zip codes or other physical, political or natural
boundaries.
What about advertising?
Putt-2-Go name and reputation is an important part of our
business. You will spend a minimum of $1,000 on grand-debut
advertising during the first three months of operations. You
will also spend at least 8% of your gross sales per month
on local advertising. In addition, you will be expected to
make Marketing Fund contributions of up to 2% of your weekly
gross sales.
How much training is provided?
The initial training covers all material aspects of the operation
of a Putt-2-Go franchise and is comprised of classroom and
on-the-job training.
What is the term of the Franchise Agreement?
The initial term of the Franchise Agreement is five years
from the date the Franchise Agreement is signed. The franchise
is renewable for three successive terms of five years each,
providing you have complied with the provisions of the Franchise
Agreement.
