If you are looking for information on the PRstore franchise business opportunity, PRstore franchises or PRstore franchising, then you have come to the right place.
A new retail concept, PRstore is rapidly becoming America's marketing superstore. PRstore was created to provide marketing tools, promotional products and expert advice to small businesses, non-profits, civic groups, faith-based organizations and individuals who do not traditionally utilize full-service ad agencies and public relations firms.
PRstore's emphasis is on convenience, ease of access, affordability, and the availability of marketing products purchased by customers who know what they need or who can be guided by PRstore's professional sales staff.
At PRstore, our products and services are extensive and designed to meet all of the most common marketing needs from logos, brochures, direct mail and press releases to cutting edge e-commerce web sites. PRstore also has one the largest displays of specialty advertising logo items available anywhere.
PRstore is a franchise company - a business system that provides its members with a system of tools, processes and proprietary knowledge.
While marketing is an integral function in all types of franchises from fast food to quick oil changes, PRstore is one of the few franchise concepts designed to take full advantage of a marketing professional's core strengths and experience while providing an opportunity to own and operate their own business.
All creative work is performed for your store by PRstore's DesignCentral staffed by writers, editors, designers, producers and marketing specialists.
"The PRstore was just what I was looking for. They created my logo and even helped me get it trademarked. I am proud to be the PRstore's first customer anywhere. But I know I won't be the last."
--Anthony "B.K." Williams, Frozen Film Productions, Charlotte, North Carolina
"When we needed golf umbrellas with our logo for our statewide meeting, the PRstore came through with the most competitive price and great service. They were a pleasure to work with"
--Mitzi Teel, Transportation Association of South Carolina, Columbia, South Carolina
The information presented may have changed since first published. We recommend that you always verify fees, investment amounts and offers with the business opportunity directly prior to making a decision to invest.
1. What training and ongoing support do you provide?
You want to know what happens after you pay the initial fee. A strong franchisor provides comprehensive pre-opening training, site-selection help, operational playbooks, and continuous assistance with marketing, technology, and supply chains.
2. What is the total initial investment, and did actual startup costs match the estimates in Item 7 of the FDD?
The Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) lists estimated startup costs in Item 7, but real-world expenses can run higher. Asking how closely current owners tracked to these estimates reveals if you need extra working capital or if hidden fees exist.
3. How do royalties and local/national marketing fees impact profitability?
You need to understand ongoing financial obligations-such as monthly royalty percentages and ad fund contributions-and evaluate whether the brand value and support justify cutting into your profit margins.
4. What are the common challenges new franchisees face, and how do you help them overcome them?
Transparent franchisors will openly discuss real hurdles like local competition, tight labor markets, or supply chain bottlenecks, and show you the exact playbook or field support they offer to solve them as well as allowing you to speak with other franchisees.
5. How many franchise locations have closed or left the system in the past few years, and why?
High turnover, store closures, or quiet franchise exits are major red flags. This question measures system stability, territory health, and whether the corporate team addresses struggling owners or lets them fail.
