The Economics of Owning an ELP Publishing Franchise
Publishing Partners own the exclusive rights to provide ELP
products and services within clearly defined geographical regions. These rights
are subject to a formal, signed Franchise Agreement.
Highlights of the Franchise Agreement include:
- Cost of a local franchise: $1.00. This offer is subject to
the approval of the Franchisee by ELP and to the terms of the Franchise
Agreement;
- Franchisee's profits per books sold = Income (typically
$12.00 per book sold) less printing costs and payments to ELP (typically in
the range of $4.00 to $5.00);
- Income from the sale of Advertising;
- Income from the sale of Sponsorships of books;
- Fees for the recruitment of new Publishing Partners (subject
to the provisions of the
Franchise Agreement). To view the current Sharing Arrangement, Click Here.
