The franchisee’s feedback was mixed, balancing strong operational support with concerns about profitability and growth. They reported solid onboarding and ongoing support and found the franchisor’s customer acquisition strategies effective, also praising the product quality. However, financial results are below the expectations set during the sales process with margins and ROI only moderate, technology and hiring are weak spots, and they show little interest in expanding.
