Q) What training will I receive?
During our initial Jump Start Training, a Development Manager will help you find the best location to start your business. Then you will embark on a week of intensive training, called Boot Camp, at our Headquarters in Houston, Texas. Here, you will learn the operational skills needed to exceed Pinot’s Palette’s excellent customer service expectations. Your opening artist staff will then be trained in your studio by a Pinot’s Palette experienced artist trainer.
Q) How long will it take to open a franchise?
How fast do you want to open? We have opened stores in 8 weeks and others in 6 months. There is a formula that we teach you over our training courses and we assist you during the entire opening process. Our entertainment franchise opportunities are flexible to your time schedule so give us a call and let us know what works for you.

Q) Does Pinot’s Palette® require its franchises to be owner-operated?
Pinot’s Palette® allows you to adjust the work/life balance to your individual needs.

Yes. But we require all new equipment and the studio will need to be redone to look exactly like a Pinot’s Palette®. Contact us for more information.
Q) How much money can I make owning a Pinot’s Palette®?
Since the actual results of individual franchises are based on factors that are not within the control of Pinot’s Palette, we do not provide estimates of profits or revenues. However, after consulting with a Pinot’s Palette Franchise Development Representative and reviewing the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), you will have the opportunity to contact our existing franchisees regarding their experiences.
Q) Can I open multiple studios?
Yes, in fact our technology allows you to run as many stores as you like with many synergies.

At this time, we do not. Contact your financial advisor or banker to determine which financial arrangements will be best for your specific circumstances.
