360 Painting franchise FAQ

The total initial investment necessary to begin operation of a 360 PAINTING franchise ranges from $112,350 to $196,000 [p.1].
What is the initial franchise fee?
The initial franchise fee for a 360 Painting Business is $65,000. This fee is generally payable in one lump sum upon execution of the Franchise Agreement and is fully earned when paid, making it non-refundable [p.21].
What are the ongoing royalty and advertising fees?
The ongoing royalty fee is a nonrefundable amount equal to the greater of $150 per week or six percent (6%) of Gross Sales [p.109]. Advertising fees are funded by franchisees through national advertising funds (NAF), which are used for preparing and producing various advertising materials benefiting the overall franchise brands, not individual owners [p.88, p.109]. Revenue from these NAF contributions is recognized as incurred in franchise support expenses on the consolidated statements of operations [p.91].
How long is the initial franchise agreement, and can I renew it?
The initial franchise agreement's duration isn't specified in these excerpts, but according to [p.108], upon expiration of the Initial Term, you have the right to renew the franchise for up to two successive ten-year periods under certain conditions.
Can I sell or transfer my franchise, and what does that require?
According to the FDD, you cannot freely transfer ownership of your franchise without the franchisor's approval. The franchisor can refuse a transfer for good cause [p.5], which is defined broadly but requires specific justification. This isn't specified in the excerpts.
On what grounds can the franchisor terminate the agreement?
The franchisor can terminate the agreement on any grounds available by law [p.208]. Additionally, the franchisor has the right to terminate the franchise agreement if the franchisee defaults under any other agreement between Franchisor and Franchisee [p.142(xxiii)]. This isn't specified in the excerpts for all possible grounds, but it covers some of the key points regarding termination rights.
What financial requirements — net worth and liquid capital — do I need to qualify?
This isn't specified in the excerpts.
Do I get an exclusive or protected territory?
Yes, you are granted a protected territory where you have the right to use the marks and system within a specified residential geographic area. However, this protection does not provide exclusivity; you may face competition from other franchisees, company-owned outlets, or other channels of distribution controlled by the franchisor [p.41].
What training and ongoing support does the franchisor provide?
The franchisor provides an initial training program overseen by their training and performance team, including a confidential Brand Standards Manual as instructional material. This must be completed within three months after the Effective Date of the Franchise Agreement. Additionally, the franchisor may require periodic refresher trainings or regional meetings at your expense to enhance learning beyond the initial training [p.37]. There may also be extra application-based training offered by select brands that requires additional travel and expenses [p.40].
How many franchised outlets are there, and how many have closed or been terminated?
The FDD does not provide specific numbers on how many franchised outlets have closed or been terminated. However, it mentions that a high percentage of franchised outlets were terminated or transferred in the last year [p.4]. The total number of franchised outlets as of December 31, 2025, is 58 (20 Neighborhood Barre and 38 Row House) [p.69], but this includes both active and possibly closed or terminated outlets.
Does the franchisor share any financial performance or earnings information?
The franchisor does not make any financial performance representations except for providing actual records of an existing outlet if a franchisee is purchasing one. However, the franchisor may disclose financial and operational data to create financial performance representations for prospective franchisees [p.50]. Additionally, during the term of the agreement, the franchisor may collect and disclose benchmarking data about your operation to other franchisees for performance recognition or to prepare financial performance representations for prospective franchisees [p.121] and [p.36].
What am I restricted to selling, and where must I buy supplies?
You are not specifically restricted to selling any particular products; however, you may have to buy or lease certain items from the franchisor or a limited group of suppliers designated by them, which might be more expensive than other options [p.3]. This isn't specified in the excerpts regarding where you must buy supplies.
