Growth in Earning Opportunity
Every prospective franchisee wants to know how much they can earn. Fortunately, the SpeedPro sales potential has grown year over year, demonstrating consistency and value in the market.
As a business, we saw a 4.7% increase in total gross sales from 2023 to 2024, with 2024’s systemwide gross sales reaching just shy of $109 million!* For several years in a row, SpeedPro has exceeded prior years’ sales numbers—a testament to the growth we’ve experienced and continue to hone.
Individual studio sales have also seen growth. The average SpeedPro Studio’s gross sales for 2024 was $930,983—up from $892,603 in 2023.*
Our top-performing Studios saw increases, too, and continue to demonstrate the immense potential that can be found in our business. The top quartile (the highest-performing 25% of franchise locations) earned an average of $1,698,097 in gross sales in 2024. The owner’s discretionary profit (ODP) from the top quartile also increased, to an average of $445,585.*
Accessible Cost to Open
Across the board, our franchise system and individual Studios are enjoying a pattern of growth. But what’s not growing is the cost to open a SpeedPro Studio! Our franchise model has long been one of the most affordable printing opportunities in the industry, giving more people the chance to invest in an entrepreneurial future.
Per Item 7 of the FDD, the average cost to open a new Studio is $250,000. This includes the initial franchise fee, the initial marketing fee, and the fee for our turnkey startup package containing all the equipment and supplies you need to open.
Most importantly, our initial $49,500 franchise fee has not changed from years past. This is among the lowest fees on the market today. And, if you’re a veteran or first responder, you’ll enjoy a $10,000 discount!
Many prospective franchisees find SpeedPro’s financial investment to be affordable and attainable through small business loans, 401(k) rollovers, or personal savings.
Even More Growth and Brand Recognition Successes
Low investment requirements and sales growth are certainly exciting things to boast about. But SpeedPro has also celebrated several other noteworthy achievements in the past year that signal our growth and success in the industry!
