The franchisee’s overall sentiment is mixed, reflecting strong satisfaction with the brand but notable reservations about advocacy. They report high overall satisfaction and say they would purchase again, citing strong operations and effective customer acquisition. However, they are unlikely to recommend the brand, pointing to weak technology, misaligned time-commitment expectations, and a need for improved marketing and communication.

The franchisee expressed a mixed view of the brand, with moderate satisfaction and willingness to repurchase but a very low likelihood to recommend. They praised the franchise’s culture and reported excellent ongoing support, along with strong technology and a positive hiring experience. However, financial results and ROI are below expectations, and the franchisor’s customer acquisition strategies are seen as ineffective and too costly.

While they still have a long way to go, there has been a lot of improvement this year. They are hiring more support staff, getting our website better optimized, working on more options for lead gen., etc.

since the transition to Five star there have been a lot of changes without data and forcing us to platforms that don't make sense for the system because they fall under the Five star brand. It's become quite costly to be a franchisee with no real wiggle room to increase pricing because of the economy. My business went from making money to barely making money with the transition of Five Star
