How Much Money Do You Really Need to Start a Franchise?
Most people think it’s a simple number — $50K, $100K, $1M?
The truth is: it’s way more layered than that.
From initial fees to build-out, royalties, marketing levies, and working capital… your real startup number depends on the model — and not every “low-cost” franchise is actually low cost.
Chick-fil-A? That $10K buy-in looks great—until you realize you don’t actually own the business and share the majority of profits with corporate.
McDonald’s? $1–2M upfront, and then the real work starts.
At RevRatel, we’ve reviewed hundreds of FDDs and franchise models — and we know where hidden costs live.
Whether you’re looking at boutique fitness, pet services, home services and more, we help you ask the questions most people forget or don’t know to ask.
