Summary

Slim and Tone Franchise offers a franchise package for opening a women's fitness franchise in Horsham, Pennsylvania, near Philadelphia.  They provide training and marketing material to buyers.  When starting out, franchisees are given three months' royalty free months to get started.  They offer hydraulic equipment that adjusts. 

A protection territory is 5 miles or 40,000 population.  The company offers each women's fitness franchise grand opening help on-site for 3 days.

The company is owned by Nutrisystem, which has experience in marketing diet and nutrition products.  Nutrisystem provides franchisees with mailing lists generated from Nutrisystem's other business ventures.   The company makes a very big deal out of their Nutrisystem connections in all of their franchisee material.

This women's fitness franchise company claims that their hydraulic equipment is "state of the art."  They invite a side by side comparison to Curves of Pace, but do not try to compare to Contours Express or Butterfly Life, with their weight based equipment.

Slim and Tone Women's Gym offers free "creative" for marketing efforts.  They provide customization of those materials for franchisees, but there is some complaints on the forums about turn-around time.
