6. Does Newsbarbers Co. provide possible locations or does the franchise applicant look for the site?

A. If a franchise applicant has a location or site in mind, Newsbarbers will evaluate its viability.

B. In the absence of a preferred available site, Newsbarbers will look for a prospective location on behalf of the franchise applicant.

7. What is the projected return on investment (ROI)?

ROI varies depending on the location and market. Rate of rental, operating costs and management policies are also key factors.

In some of our successful branches, the ROI is one and a half to two years.

8. How do you market/promote a franchise shop?

Advertising/promo costs for a particular Newsbarbers shop are jointly shouldered by the franchisees and the mother company.

The company, from time to time, may embark on its own advertising blitz for the benefit all of the branches (company owned or franchises) while a franchisee may do the same with the consent of the mother company.
