According to the Mr. Goodcents franchise website, Mr. Goodcents is actively and aggressively recruiting individuals to invest anywhere from $155,150 – $382,800 in the Mr. Goodcents Subs & Pasta franchise opportunity.
According to Mr. Goodcents, “This figure includes your franchise fee, 3 months working capital, build-out, equipment, marketing, and most other expenditures you incur for your restaurant.”
Don’t have $300,000 laying around? No worries. Mr. Goodcents brags “We have relationships with a number of lenders and can provide you with their contact information. We are pre-approved by the Small Business Administration and listed on their ‘Franchise Registry.”
“Most banks are requiring 25%-35% down for an SBA Loan,” says Mr. Goodcents.
What Mr. Goodcents doesn’t disclose on his website is that more than half of those who financed a Mr. Goodcents franchise through an SBA-backed loan have defaulted on that loan.
That’s right: Nearly a three-quarters of the Mr. Goodcents franchise owners who received SBA loans, some of whom may have collateralized their franchise loan with their house or other personal assets, were unable to repay those franchise loans… despite serious incentive to do so.
