If you are looking for information on the The Back Rubber franchise business opportunity, The Back Rubber franchises or The Back Rubber franchising, then you have come to the right place.
The Back Rubber offers one of the easiest vending opportunities for just about anyone. In fact, most of our customers have never had vending or business experience before starting their vending massage chair route. The opportunity is successfully being used in shopping malls, beauty salons, nail boutiques, casinos, country clubs, health and fitness centers, car washes, airports, hotels, hospitals, etc.
These wonderful vending massage chairs effortlessly make money in any high traffic area.
Wouldn't it be great to step into this type of opportunity
and the money comes in immediately? You bet it would!
We know the greatest fear people have in starting a vending business is getting locations. Many people do not want to make "sales presentations" or make face-to-face contact with location owners. If you don't want to try to place your chairs then why go through the "Trial and Error" method. Trial and error can cost you time, money and a lot of frustration.
As a special service for our VIP Members, we can arrange to have a locator place your massage chairs in some of the best locations right in your own backyard so you don't have to!
Start off as small as you desire, and expand your business at your own pace. Work full-time or part-time. Your income starts as soon as your bill operated massage chairs are on location, and your profit is only limited by the number of machines you want to own.
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.
