Why You Should Start a Bricks 4 Kidz Franchise

Starting a Bricks 4 Kidz franchise is an exciting venture because you get to positively impact a younger generation. Your programs will inspire them to be creative thinkers and problem solvers. You can encourage them to trust their thinking process. Bricks 4 Kidz was even chosen as a “2021 Best Products for Elementary Kids” by the Parents’ Pick Awards website, which highlights parent-tested and kid-approved programs and products.

Bricks 4 Kidz recommends that franchisees put in a minimum of 30 hours per week. And you don't have to go it alone. You are more than welcome to hire employees to help you manage the business. The franchisor provides you with all the tools you need to succeed, from training to a support network.

What Might Make a Bricks 4 Kidz Franchise a Good Choice?

While you should be financially prepared before you make the investment, there is little overhead involved with starting a Bricks 4 Kidz franchise and no need to rent a space, as classes are typically held in school classrooms after school hours. Saving money on startup means you can focus more on sales and growth. You also have the chance to bring in revenue year-round, hosting programs during afterschool hours, at camps, and during birthday parties. 

With a wide variety of programs, you have multiple streams of revenue, and you can host them in-person or operate as a virtual franchise. Since Bricks 4 Kids is an affordable education option, you're more likely to have parents sign up for one of your programs.
