# How Much Does a B2B Services Franchise Cost?

B2B service franchises tend to be lower-cost — many fall in roughly the $75,000–$200,000 total-investment range, since they are relationship- and contract-driven rather than location-dependent. Confirm any figure in Item 7 of the FDD.

## What drives the cost

Overhead is low because the business is built on selling to and serving other businesses, often without a customer-facing storefront. Cost goes to the franchise fee, initial marketing and sales infrastructure, any equipment the service requires, and working capital during the pipeline-building phase.

## What you are budgeting for

Expect an initial franchise fee, sales and marketing setup, modest office or equipment costs depending on the concept, and working capital to fund the ramp while you build a book of recurring accounts.
