FActs About Our Franchise Program

We’re looking for pickleball enthusiasts and entrepreneurs who are passionate about the sport and eager to be at the forefront of this sporting revolution in their community.  Our regional developer franchise model is designed for entrepreneurs who want to build out a territory of Dill Dinkers locations and existing multi-unit franchise operators looking to diversify their portfolio, with a fun concept in the fastest growing sport in America.

We provide a turn-key program with fully designed prototypical drawings, a learning management system to train your teams and keep them current, generous territories with a marketing playbook to build your customer base, and a pickleball concept with a streamlined customer experience and leading program offerings.

At Dill Dinkers, we believe in simplicity and player satisfaction. Our state-of-the-art court reservation system ensures a smooth and cash-free process for our players. As pickleball enthusiasts ourselves, we know exactly what players seek in a facility. That’s why we’ve curated a welcoming environment tailored to both newcomers and seasoned players, offering programs that cater to different skill levels. With a focus on safety, comfort, and fun, our facility inspires learning, healthy competition, and an active lifestyle.

For our single-club franchise you’ll need $100,000 liquid and a net worth of $500,000.  For our Regional Developer franchise, you’ll need $250,000 liquid and a net worth of $1M.  While we don’t offer financing, we have a vendor partner ready to work with you to support your financing needs.

As a Dill Dinkers Regional Developer, you’ll open your own “flagship” location in a protected territory.  Then, after opening your first club, you can meet your development schedule by opening additional units, as well as having independent franchises open in the market. This limits the amount of capital you may need to deploy and creates an additional revenue stream as we will compensate you for any locations that open in the territory including a percentage of the ongoing sales, creating a tremendous economic platform for growth and success.

We estimate the initial investment to open a single-club Dill Dinkers franchise to be between $368,228 – $710,303 depending on the size of the location, number of courts, and the condition of the space.  The initial franchise fee is $50,000 and the continuing royalty is 8% of your sales.  We do not have a compulsory brand fund contribution at this time. 

We estimate the initial investment to become a Regional Developer to be between $167,300 to $882,400 depending on how large your territory is and if you locate your office/training center in your flagship location or independently.  If you are one of our first 10 Regional Developers to sign an agreement, the initial franchise fee is $100,000 for a territory of 1M population, and your compensation will be equal to 50% of the initial franchise fee for any single-club locations and 50% of the ongoing royalties collected.

We anticipate it will take between 90 and 180 days to open your Dill Dinkers Club after you sign your franchise agreement.  We have successfully opened our three locations in less than 90 days from signing each lease and we will help you open as quickly as possible.   This will depend on how long it takes to find a qualified location.  Our national brokers will assist you at no cost to you.  It will also depend on the condition of the space and whether you will need to obtain a building permit versus just remodeling the space.

9 streams OF REVENUE

As a Dill DinkersTM Pickleball franchisee, you can earn revenue from a streamlined, attractive, and well-thought-out suite of services that create a fun, safe, and welcoming environment for your customers. Our business model includes nine streams of revenue which help you maximize your profits on and off the court. These revenue streams consist of Annual Membership, Court Rental, Lessons, Clinics, Leagues, Parties and Private Events, the Pro Shop, Gift Cards, and Business Advertising. It’s important to remember that your audience is not limited to B2C, we have government entities that hold leagues at our facility, non-profits as well as for-profit organizations that advertise with us, and businesses, government agencies, and individuals who rent our space for parties.
