We are looking for financially qualified potential franchise owners who have experience working with young children in a professional setting, either fitness or academic, who are excited to build a business around the Little Lions Club brand. We’re looking for compassionate coaches who will embrace our holistic approach, including parents and educators. Our franchise owners are passionate about our mission, and dedicated members of their community.
We will host you and your general manager at our training facility in Williamsburg, Virginia for 5 days to train you in every aspect of the business, with both operations and coaching training. Within 60 days after you open your business, a representative from Little Lions Club will join you at your location to answer any questions you may have. We are committed to helping our franchise owners open a kids fitness franchise with knowledge, confidence, and fun! And, of course, you’ll have access to our detailed confidential operations manual, which includes every detail of established operating practices, so you can replicate Little Lions Club in your community.
The estimated initial investment to begin operations ranges from $43,500 to $55,700. This includes a $32,500 initial franchise fee for a single territory agreement. Ask about discounts for qualified veterans and subsequent locations. As with any new venture, adequate capital is essential to fund the initial business growth stages.
We do not provide direct financing to franchise owners, but we may refer to financing sources on a case-by-case basis.
We collect a 9% royalty fee based on gross revenues. Fees such as these allow us to fund our ongoing support services, as well as the continued development of best practices and coaching curriculum, marketing training programs, and systems upgrades. For a full list of fees and requirements, please refer to our Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).
Franchise owners will contribute 1% (this may increase to up to 2%) of gross revenues to the brand marketing fund. Collected funds will be used to develop marketing strategies to promote the Little Lions Club brand and cover the creative costs to create brand marketing materials and campaigns. Franchisees will also be required to invest 1% (this may increase up to 2%) of gross revenues in local marketing and are expected to spend a minimum of $1,000 on their Grand Opening within the first 60 days of operations. For a full list of fees and requirements, please refer to our Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).
The initial term of your agreement is eight years, with two subsequent successor agreement options of six years each. With that, you have a business you can continue to grow, while making an impact for kids and their families in your community. We look forward to supporting you at every stage, when you open a kids fitness franchise with Little Lions Club, and as you grow your business.
