great its costs more in fiction than real ife well then im screwed! :s :d

*tink tink tink* Is this thing on? Alrighty then! out of character, you don't pay a dime. In character, it's costly…so costly we here at GBVA have to run specials every month… |

Well if you visit mine or any other GBI Franchise site you will see that we run monthly specials to keep up with the costly gas prices, entrapments, etc.. So yes it is rather costly to run a Franchise.

PS- It's all fun

That's fine, Bruce Wayne has enough cash to maintain 10 franchises!

Ok, let me see if I've got this straight, there are two realms of the Franchise,

a) The real life, £30 an apearence deal, where you pay NOTHING to GBI…

b)The magical world of make believe where it cost £4000 for entrapment and £1000 for storage… and it's VERY costly to maintain the franchise…

In franchise world it's costly costly costly. Proton charging, maintaining the equipment. not to mention every time the grid threatens to fail upgrades are called in from GBI.

It costs some cash in real life. Uniforms, pictures, building equip, etc…


But it's all worth it, ain't it guys (and girls)?

yeah, but that money goes to the suppliers of the materials, but not to Louis Tulley. He doesn't get a dime for his time. (in reality).

But then, is there really any reality in the world?

Of course the money doesn't come to ME!

The fees paid by licensed franchises goes directly to GBI the corporate entity. Franchises pay 30% of every dollar earned back to GBI. For example, if you made $1000 on a job as Ghostbusters…GBI would receive $300 of that.

In exchange for this money franchises receive:
(1) the right to use the Ghostbusters International name,
(2) the exclusive right to purchase and operate patented Ghostbusters equipment, and
(3) an exclusive territory within which they act as representatives of Ghostbusters International."

Ghostbusters International has established standard fees for the following basic services:

On Site Inspection=$500

Capture of Paranormal Entities=$4000 for the first capture, $1000 each additional

Removal of Paranormal Entities=$1000 for the first removal, $500 each additional

Storage (one time fee)=$1500

GBI encourages individual franchises to run specials with reduced prices or package deals when business is slow or when a franchise is breaking into new territory. Individual franchises have the right to charge whatever fees they like, provided they can collect the balance due.

Hope that answers everyones' questions on the subject.

Doesn't answer all of mine…..

Very good Louis, long yet educational.

U sound like a salesman on a broken record. No offense but I've heard that exact pricing quote 17 times already. LOL
