What their own earnings claim actually says
No financial performance representations made. Franchisor explicitly states it does not make representations about franchisee future financial performance or past outlet performance.
What a IFIXANDREPAIR franchise actually costs to run
| Fee | Disclosed | Where it comes from |
|---|---|---|

| Advertising fund | 1.5% of gross sales | Item 6 — brand marketing, spent at the franchisor's discretion |
| Total recurring fees | 1.5% of gross sales | Before rent, labor, food or debt service |
| Total initial investment | $68,200 – $147,450 | Item 7 — franchisor's own low/high estimate |
Royalty: flat $850-$2,000/month. Ad fee: 1-3% local (recommended), 1% national (not yet instituted). Software: $150/month ongoing.
Royalty and ad-fund percentages are charged on gross sales — an owner pays them whether or not the location is profitable.

| Terminated by franchisor | 0 |
| Transferred to new owners | 3 |
| Closure rate | 1.4% of outlets |
6 ceased operations last fiscal year; no terminations/non-renewals; rapid growth may mask underlying issues.
