Fee guidance
Fees reflect workshop time, site observation, and written deliverables. Nothing here is a subscription — you engage for a defined piece of work.
How we price franchise development consulting
Most clients begin with a fixed-fee Franchise Readiness Assessment. Larger builds such as manuals or multi-region territory maps are quoted after we see your footprint and existing documents.
Three-week diagnostic with report and debrief for a single concept.
Manuals, training path, support model, and brand standards — scoped to complexity.
Profiles, interview bank, discovery-day design over roughly four weeks.
Depends on number of regions and existing site data quality.
What moves a quote up or down
- Number of company-owned sites to review
- Whether usable SOP drafts already exist
- North Island travel for on-site observation
- Multi-brand or multi-concept groups
- Urgency that compresses a six-week build into a shorter window
Deposits and billing
Assessments and recruitment support are invoiced 50% to secure dates and 50% on delivery of the final pack. System design engagements bill in three stages tied to outline approval, draft manuals, and final handover. Prices on this page are informational; your proposal confirms GST treatment and payment timing.
Not included in consulting fees
Franchise agreement drafting, government filing fees, paid media to attract franchisees, and photography production. We can introduce you to specialists when useful, without referral kickbacks that would bias the introduction.
