EXPERIMAC franchise stores are listed for sale from coast to coast. While there are 96 Experimac computer store locations listed on the company website, we found 27 listings for Experimac franchise resales. Why are more than 20% of Experimac franchises up for sale? The purported reasons the owners are selling is listed below.
(UnhappyFranchisee.Com) Experimac franchise owners invest between $150K to $350K to open their franchise locations, and commit to a term of 35 years.
Yet it appears that as many a 25% of the franchised computer and cell phone repair stores are for sale, some at fire-sale prices.
Many Experimac franchise owners appear to be desperate to exit the franchise system, despite only having been open for a couple of years.
While a few have successfully sold their stores, many others, it appears, have closed their doors and defaulted on their loans.

It’s not clear whether actual franchise owners are providing the information for these franchise resale listings.
Some of the reasons given for franchisees who recently committed to a 35-year agreement suddenly want to go a different direction seem a bit… unconvincing.
Perhaps the most creative is the owner who “successfully met store growth goals” within 2 years of the 35 year agreement and now must find a bigger dragon to slay.
Here are some reasons for selling Experimac stores that are cited in the ads:

I would be curious to know how many stores, if any, have turned a profit? I was told by the sales person when purchasing the Franchise that "most stores open over 9 months are averaging $100,000 in sales a month." I personally had 1 profitable month while in business and made $1,500 that month. Is anyone making profits regularly?
