 What can I expect as a Return on Investment?
When you run a new brand like istone, you enjoy the much less competition in the semi-precious jewelry market, yet also have to challenge the risk of how to introduce the products to the local market. Many factors affect the return on your investment, such as quality of your staff and management team, market conditions, local competitive activity and management control. To be successful on your business, basically you need to choose a good store location and to commit to efficiently managing the store(s). 

 Do you charge any other fees except the initial inventory purchase and deposit？
No, we don’t. This is one of the advantages to partner with istone. We provide quality products and services to our licensees with relatively small investment in comparison with the other companies because we never want to profit on the all kinds of miscellaneous fees as the other franchisor or licensor usually charge.  

 Does istone select the site where I’ll open my store?
No. You will select the site, but a representative of istone must approve each location.
