How you make money

Investors on Franshares make money in two ways. The first is through the increase in franchise value over time. As the franchise ages they usually make more in profit, the land they are situated on becomes more valuable, and the worth of the real estate that the franchise operates in can also increase. In addition to the raw value of the franchise, an investor on Franshares makes money from distributions. Profits from operations of the business are distributed 12-18 months after a “ramp-up”. Some of the industries such as hair and child care make an average net profit of over $100k per year which then trickles back to investors as distributions.

How Franshares makes money

Franshares makes money from a 1.5% management fee as well as a variable performance fee. They use the management fee to pay for the basic running costs and the performance fee as a bonus to incentivize fund performance.
