Frequently asked questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to open a Somedays franchise?
The total investment to open a Somedays franchise ranges from $404K – $665K, with an initial franchise fee of $35K. This includes real estate, equipment, inventory, and working capital as disclosed in their Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).
What do Somedays franchise owners earn?
Somedays does not disclose average franchise owner earnings in their FDD Item 19. Not all franchisors are required to make financial performance representations. We recommend asking existing franchisees directly about their financial experience.
What is Somedays's franchise failure rate?
SBA 7(a) loan charge-off data is not available for Somedays (fewer than 10 loans on file). Charge-off rates are one way to gauge franchise risk, but not all franchise loans go through the SBA program. We recommend reviewing turnover and closure data in the FDD and speaking with current franchisees.
Is Somedays a good franchise to buy?
FranchiseVerdict rates Somedays as a D-grade franchise with a risk score of 75 out of 100, based on our analysis of investment costs, revenue data, SBA loan performance, and growth trends. Our rating is based solely on publicly available FDD and government data; we recommend speaking with current franchisees before making any investment decision. This is not investment advice.
