How much does a Creative Kids Movement Network franchise make?

Creative Kids Movement Network is one of the franchisors that answers this on the record: its most recent FDD makes an Item 19 financial performance representation — actual unit earnings figures, disclosed by the franchisor itself. The headline figure is $155,941 in average unit revenue — read it alongside what Item 19 says about which units it covers (often only mature or top-performing locations). See every child services & education brand that discloses earnings in the Child care & education franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.

Creative Kids Movement Network franchise profit vs. revenue

Revenue is not profit. An Item 19 almost always reports sales — what a location takes in — not what an owner keeps. Out of that number come Creative Kids Movement Network's 18% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a Creative Kids Movement Network franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "Creative Kids Movement Network franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure. On $155,941 of revenue, a 18% royalty alone is about $28,069 a year before any other cost.

Creative Kids Movement Network lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)

Creative Kids Movement Network's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026) discloses no litigation in Item 3. That is a real signal rather than a gap: the FTC Franchise Rule requires a franchisor to disclose material litigation involving itself, its predecessors, parents, affiliates and management, so an empty Item 3 in a current filing means there was nothing it was required to report. It is worth reading alongside the churn numbers — a system can have a clean Item 3 and still be losing franchisees, which is what Item 20 shows.

Creative Kids Movement Network closures & failure rate

Before you sign, Creative Kids Movement Network will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what Creative Kids Movement Network's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a child services & education of this kind.

The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. Creative Kids Movement Network's latest tables show a growing franchised network. Net franchised outlets moved +6 to 6 in the latest reported year.

Who owns Creative Kids Movement Network?

Creative Kids Movement Network's franchise is offered by CKMN Franchising, LLC — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at WI DFI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.
