Have questions about franchising?
We want to make the steps to ownership as streamlined as possible. Check out these commonly asked questions.
How do I open a swim school franchise?
Start the process of learning more about our concept by filling out the inquiry form. We are actively seeking highly-qualified individuals to become swim school franchisees. Prior business experience, coupled with a passion for customer service, a passion for kids, financial acumen, individual motivation, and a track record of success are important factors in our evaluation process.
Do I need prior swimming experience?
No, swimming experience is not a prerequisite for our franchisees. You will recruit local swimming professionals to help you run the facility. However, we do require our franchisees to be passionate about customer service, kids, families and teaching children a life skill that will make a positive impact for the rest of their lives.
What investment level is required to open a Streamline Brands franchise?
We offer a variety of options to fit a variety of franchisee candidates. To open a hosted facility, individuals will need a minimum of $30,000 in non-borrowed, liquid capital (e.g., cash, marketable securities, stocks, etc.) along with an overall net worth (total assets minus total liabilities) of $300,000 to qualify. Additional financing is to be secured through third-party lending sources. Investment levels for dedicated facilities require more liquid capital and vary by market based on local real estate and construction costs.
