Big Frog
The Big Frog Franchise is a sales and marketing franchise in the garment industry, with 60% to 65% of our business (after the first two years) being generated through leaving the store and networking. Big Frog Franchise should never be presented as just a "T-shirt shop." This means that our retail walk in business, which helps most of our franchisees cash flow in just a few months, is only 35% to 40% of sales when a store reaches maturity. If Big Frog is presented as a T-shirt shop, your clients will have the mindset that they do not have to leave their store in order to grow their business, and that all of their customers will just walk in the front door. That could not be farther from the truth! Our most successful franchisees are networkers who are actively involved in their communities and build successful teams. The Big Frog Franchise has numerous advantages: The top 25% of our franchisees are nearly $1-million stores, averaging $966,687 in sales in 2025. Buying power, just-in-time product deliveries, medical benefits from day one, minimum staffing requirements, great work-life balance, and great profit margins are just a few of the core advantages that our Big Frog Franchise model has to offer.

The franchisee expressed a mixed outlook—overall satisfied and likely to repurchase, with strong initial training and ongoing support. However, they rated the franchisor’s customer acquisition strategies poorly and reported difficulty hiring qualified employees. Financial results and ROI are only moderate, they are disinclined to expand due to greater-than-expected time demands, and they criticized recent fee increases as excessive, noting the business requires active owner involvement.
