Best Life Brands’ brands here are home care and senior care, home service and business services franchises. Each is franchised on its own terms, under its own agreement, so the cost to open, the fees and the record of each brand differ, even where the parent company is the same.

Fees and royalties across the brands
Franchise fees run from $48K to $98K across these brands, with a typical $57K. Where the royalty is a single share of sales, it runs from 5% to 5.5%, typically 5.3%. At 3 brands the royalty isn't one rate on all sales: it is tiered, ranged, charged on part of revenue or comes with a minimum.
A shared parent can mean shared suppliers, systems and support staff, but it rarely means shared terms: compare the agreements brand by brand, and ask whether owning one brand gets you anything when you buy another.
Sales per location and who runs it
Of these brands, 3 publish yearly sales per location, from $321K at Blue Moon Estate Sales to $1.34M at Next Day Access. Of the 5 brands whose agreement says, 2 require the owner to run it day to day; at the rest a trained manager can.
