How much does a Sloan's franchise owner make?

As with any new franchise, there should be a reasonable return on your investment and profit potential. The specific franchise owner's salary and the earnings from a Sloan's franchise will depend on a variety of factors. One way to confirm the potential revenues or profits earned from a Sloan's franchise investment is to review the franchisor's Item 19 within their Franchise Disclosure Document. This is called an earnings claim. This is an option for franchisors within their disclosure and approximately 68% of all franchisors that we analyze each year will disclose financial performance data within Item 19 of their FDD. Some franchisors may disclose limited information such as overall systemwide sales. This type of information is not always helpful to determine profits for you directly. So review overall sales data with caution. As expected, usually earnings and owner's salary are equitable to the overall size of the upfront investment. The larger the initial investment, the larger profits you could anticipate. Another factor to owner's salary potential is based on the number of locations you own. If you buy multiple outlets (usually referred to as Area Development Agreements), you can expect that as you scale the next location, you will generate more revenue and profits overall. Demand for your products, your labor costs in your city, commercial lease rates and several other variables also play a large role in your profit margin and your personal salary. Your financial success are linked to the overall franchisor's success. Your returns and owner's salary is not just reliant on how well your own location operates, you need to review how well the entire franchise system is operating. Determine how the franchisor generates revenue and analyze their financial returns.
