We offer franchises (“Drama Kids Franchise(s)” or “Franchise(s)”) for the use of our “DRAMA KIDS” trademarks, trade names, service marks, and logos (“Marks”) for the operation of Drama Kids Businesses. Drama Kids Businesses are operated under our proprietary Drama Kids system (“System”). The System may be changed or modified by us throughout your ownership of the Franchise. Drama Kids Businesses provide a variety of drama-related educational programs primarily for children and young adults, ages 4 to 17, using a progressive curriculum that enables students to develop acting skills, public speaking skills, creative thinking and leadership skills, confidence, self-esteem, and a positive approach to life. The business offers weekly classes during each nine-month school year, with a sufficient variety of weekly lessons that a child can participate from age 4 through age 17 without repeating any lesson, and also offers 12 different half-day and full-day summer camp programs, each lasting 1 week (Monday through Friday) for grades kindergarten through middle school.

Upfront Franchise Fees
Minimum: $27,500 Maximum: $57,500
Upfront franchise fees are the one-time payments required to secure rights to operate under an established brand, typically ranging from $20,000 to $100,000+ depending on brand value.
These fees grant access to proprietary business systems, training programs, intellectual property rights, and often territorial exclusivity—essentially purchasing the blueprint for a proven business model.
While separate from ongoing royalties, investors should evaluate these fees against expected returns, comparing fee-to-earnings ratios across opportunities and assessing how effectively franchisors reinvest these funds into system improvements.
Total Investment Costs
Minimum: $33,800 Maximum: $73,500
Ongoing Fees
Ongoing franchise fees, typically structured as royalties ranging from 4-8% of gross sales, represent the continuous payments franchisees make to maintain brand affiliation and support services.
These recurring fees fund the franchisor's operational assistance, marketing initiatives, technology updates, and continued brand development—creating a partnership where the franchisor's revenue grows alongside the franchisee's success. In addition to royalties, franchisees often contribute to national advertising funds (usually 1-3% of sales) and may incur technology fees, supply chain markups, or renewal fees depending on the franchise agreement.
Investors should carefully analyze these ongoing costs within their financial projections, as they directly impact profit margins and cash flow throughout the entire franchise relationship.
