However, if your Restaurant is located in a market area that already has an operational PizzaRev Restaurant (or other relevant circumstances exist that may affect your promotional efforts in your market area), then with the prior approval of PizzaRev to a lower minimum required grand opening advertising amount, you may spend less than $15,000 for grand opening advertising for your Restaurant.
- Your expenditures for grand opening advertising may exceed $15,000 if your Restaurant is the first PizzaRev Restaurant in the market area.
14. Additional Funds – 3 Months: $5,000 to $15,000
- During the first three months of operations, you will need additional funds to cover your expenditures for food and beverage inventories, fees due under the Franchise Agreement, local advertising, utilities, office and other supplies, and other miscellaneous operating costs.
- Your estimated additional funds have not been offset by any allowance for your operating revenues during this three-month period. You may need additional funds during the first three months of operation and afterwards.
15. Total: $493,500 to $1,150,000
- These figures are estimates only, and it is possible that you may have additional or greater expenses during this period.
