Paint and Wine Franchise "Name Fees"

The franchisee is paying to use the franchisor's name and logo and this is commonly referred to as a "name fee". Our sources tell us they are informed by competing "sip and paint" franchises that the name fee is $20-25,000 dollars on average.

My question to any potential business owner is if the franchisor's brand is well-known enough to justify the cost. If it's a "McDonalds" franchise, one of the best-known business franchises in the world, you're going to want those "golden arches" flying over the building, and it's worth the cost -- you're buying into a well-established international business franchise that everyone identifies with. 

With "sip and paint" franchises, what you're really paying in a name fee is a supposed track record of that name and logo having local appeal, not a nationally recognized brand by the common consumer, because the majority of customers are not even familiar with the concept of "sip and paint", let alone worried about a brand name. The question is if the franchised name and logo will have appeal in your own local market-- or if you can't come up with your own name and logo that is regionally desirable and brand your paint and wine business, all the while saving you $20,000 plus.

In our consulting program, we help our clients develop their business name, logo, and brand based on many factors, all proven by successful experience. The end result is a paint and wine business, name, and logo that our clients own, 100%, and at a fraction of the price of a franchise. It's like owning a "Burger King" next to a "McDonald's", before anyone knew who either company was, so it's even ground (no pun intended). From there, the client can develop several locations or franchise out their own name as desired.

Sip & Paint Business - Franchise vs Independent

Potential "paint and wine" studio business owners call daily, asking me to compare the differences between signing up with a franchise versus my independent "sip and paint" business consulting services. To understand the two different business relationships, one has to understand how a franchise works.

In a nutshell, when you become a "franchisee", you buy the rights to use the name, logo, business model, and any other proprietary business information and / or products or services that the "franchisor" offers in their contract. 

With my independent business consulting program, I help you develop your own unique business name and logo, and apply my successful business models to your unique "paint and wine" studio and local area to make your business a success.

What's the difference? About 50 to 100,000 dollars of your own investment money, and freedom, because once I co-create the business with you, you're not obligated to pay anything afterwards -- no royalties, no contracts or long-term agreements, no requirements for you to spend on advertising, it is unrestricted concerning the services and products you offer, your work hours-- you have free reign over your entire business with my program.

This is a side by side comparison I created to answer the common question of "What is the difference between an independent paint and wine business and a sip and paint franchise?".
