No Ongoing Royalty Fees

One of the things that sets TSS Photography apart is our no-royalty-fee structure. You won't pay ongoing percentages of your revenue back to corporate. Instead, you'll have full control over your business profits, allowing you to reinvest in growth or enjoy the rewards of your hard work.

Optional Services and Products

While many essential services are included in the franchise package, we also offer optional products and marketing tools that can help boost your business. These are completely at your discretion, allowing you to scale at your own pace.

Training & Support

Your investment includes comprehensive training programs that cover everything from photography techniques to business management. Plus, our support doesn’t end after the initial launch. TSS Photography offers ongoing training, marketing support, and access to a community of fellow franchisees to help you succeed.

Financing Options

We understand that starting a new business is a significant financial decision. That’s why we’ve partnered with various financing institutions to help qualified applicants cover initial startup costs. Ask our team about your options!

Low Overhead Model

One of the standout advantages of a TSS Photography franchise is our low-overhead business model. Unlike traditional brick-and-mortar businesses, TSS franchisees can operate from the comfort and convenience of their own home. This eliminates the costly burden of leasing or maintaining a commercial space, allowing franchisees to focus their resources on growth and profitability.

Additionally, there is no need to tie up your money in inventory. With TSS Photography, products are made available just-in-time through our in-house professional photo lab. This efficient production system ensures that orders are processed as they are placed, minimizing waste and maximizing cash flow. It’s a streamlined, cost-effective approach that lets franchisees scale their operations without significant upfront inventory investment.

Potential Cost Savings for Existing Photography Businesses

If you already own a photography business, becoming a TSS Photography franchisee can be an even more affordable opportunity. Many independent photographers already have essential equipment required to get started, such as cameras, lighting, and backdrops. By joining TSS, you’ll gain access to our proprietary systems, marketing resources, and established brand, all while reducing your initial investment.

Our onboarding team will work with you to assess your current equipment and help you identify any additional resources you may need. This tailored approach ensures that existing photographers can transition into the TSS model with minimal disruption and maximum savings.

Return on investment

As a potential TSS Photography franchisee, you can look forward to significant earning potential. As per our Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), our average franchisee achieved over $210,000 in retail sales in 2023. This impressive figure reflects the strength of our business model and the support we provide to help franchisees succeed. With TSS, you’ll be well-positioned to grow a profitable, rewarding business in the photography industry.
