While there are many legal and structural differences, the primary differences are:

With licensing, you, not the franchisor, control your own business. There are no requirements  of our licensees whatsoever other than two simple terms…

1. Pay your licensing fees on time and keep them current, and
2. Properly display the brand and logo on signage, in advertising and on printed materials.

Unlike franchises for fitness centers now available:

• We do not require licensees to open a center within a fixed period of time. Your exclusive license is yours in your territory as long as you keep your monthly fee current and paid…you don’t even have to open a center if you choose to delay actually opening your center until a later time.
• We do not require licensees to sign a non-compete or confidentiality agreement.
• We do not require licensees to purchase our operating system, printed materials, supplies, equipment or anything else!
• We do not restrict your marketing or sales tactics to conform to corporate guidelines.
• We do not require you to attend initial training seminars or management meetings.
• We do not require you to purchase or support any corporate vendors for equipment or other operational needs.
• We do not require licensees to link to our central computer system or utilize our security/access software.
• With our licensing, you do not have to submit any reports of any kind to license headquarters or share any personal financial or creditworthiness information.
• We do not require licensees to use our membership agreements nor stay within corporate guidelines for fees and services.
• There are no marketing funds or co-op advertising fees you must participate in.
