Frequently Asked Questions
Do I Need Computer Repair or Internet Marketing Experience?
No way! The key to success is not whether you can fix a computer or build a website - we can hire someone to do that for you. Our Chief Gorilla started the business with no experience - so can you too! The best candidates for a Lucky Gorilla franchise are people who love to work with others, have good sales and marketing instincts as well as a strong work ethic.
Why Should I Go Into Business For Myself?
There are 3 main reasons... higher income, job security, and personal satisfaction. A Lucky Gorilla franchise is a way to be your own boss, set your own hours and create your own destiny. Isn’t it time you started building your own future instead of someone else’s???
Do I Have To Quit My Current Job?
Absolutely not! Most Lucky Gorilla franchise owners start part-time, keeping their regular jobs. As you gradually build your business YOU can decide the timing that works best for you to go full time.
How Much Money Can I Make?
This will probably be your biggest question, and we can’t blame you. However, because every Local Marketplace territory and every owner is different, we’ll never be able to tell you how much money YOU can make. Just like any business, it depends on hundreds of factors... things like your business acumen, local competition, work ethic, sales and management abilities, etc.
We can tell you this... a good way to determine the success of any franchise system is how many existing franchise owners buy additional territories once they completely understand the business. In most other franchise systems the number is less than 10%. What about Lucky Gorilla? Almost 70% of our franchisees have purchased additional territories after they bought their first territory!!
How Can I Be Sure That I Have The Potential To Become A Successful Franchisee?
Perhaps your most important step in evaluating a franchise opportunity is examining your own skills, abilities and experience. The Ideal franchisee is a creative, outgoing person who is eager to succeed, but not so independent that he or she will not take our advice.
Determine exactly what you want out of life and what you are willing to sacrifice to achieve your goals. Be honest, rigorous and specific. Understand the risks and sacrifices required. Starting a franchise business is a major decision that requires careful thought. However, an informed commitment of time, energy and money by you and your family can lead to an exciting and profitable future!
How Long Is The Franchise Term?
Our initial franchise term is for 10 years. You can renew for an additional 10 years by paying a renewal fee of $2500.
Will I Get A Protected Territory For My Franchise?
Yes. Each Lucky Gorilla franchise has a protected territory that ensures no other Lucky Gorilla franchise will be sold or licensed in your Local Marketplace.
If I Send In A Request For Consideration, Does It Commit Me To Anything?
Absolutely not! And better yet, there is no application fee. Sending in a Request For Consideration simply allows us to get to know you better! So what are you waiting for?
When Can I Review the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD)?
After we receive and review your Request For Consideration, we’ll provide the FDD to all qualified candidates. Qualified applicants will receive the FDD via email as a PDF attachment. We can also provide a printed copy upon request.
