Threshold Brands’ brands here include home service, pest control and hvac 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 $35K to $55K across these brands, with a typical $44K. Where the royalty is a single share of sales, it runs from 5% to 7%, typically 6%. At one brand the royalty isn't one rate on all sales: it is tiered, ranged, charged on part of revenue or comes with a minimum. The marketing fund is 2% of sales wherever it is a percentage.
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
MaidPro is the only brand here that publishes yearly sales per location: $431K. Of the 10 brands whose agreement says, 6 require the owner to run it day to day; at the rest a trained manager can.
