Franchise FastLane CarPool Brand Spotlight: Hydralive Therapy®

In 2023, Franchise FastLane launched a first-of-its kind franchise development program known as CarPool. Essentially, it’s a coaching and administrative services program designed as a brand-based solution for the many, not just the chosen few. CarPool, led by Jesse Hudson, is open to both emerging and established brands, allowing them to perfect their processes and plug directly into Franchise FastLane’s proven systems. With CarPool, franchisors maintain an in-house franchise sales team while FastLane provides them with the coaching, technology infrastructure, and administrative support capable of helping them reach the next level of success. In addition, franchisors benefit from other assistance in the form of enhanced organic lead qualification, territory checks, call scheduling, validation, and leadership call reminders. Lastly, CarPool brands receive guidance and assistance with consultant network contracts, compliance, and up-to-date territory mapping. In a nutshell, CarPool allows participating franchisors to lower their overall risk, save capital, and greatly enhance their internal sales efforts.

In celebrating the success of this innovative program, we’re proud to feature another emerging brand benefiting from FastLane’s CarPool program - Hydralive Therapy^®.

What is Hydralive Therapy?

Hydralive Therapy was founded in 2016 to be a convenient health and wellness clinic that offers a wide range of IV therapy, vitamin injections, cryotherapy, and compression therapy, all in a comfortable, spa-like environment. IV therapy and B12 injections do require a consultation via a convenient telehealth appointment, but all treatment protocols are overseen by a board-certified physician and the staff is comprised of board-certified/state licensed medical healthcare professionals. The brand’s value proposition can be found in the extensive variety of customizable treatment options designed to promote a healthy lifestyle, with all operations backed by a supportive corporate team.

What Makes Hydralive Therapy a Special Opportunity?

The Hydralive Therapy franchise opportunity stands out for several compelling reasons, each designed to support their network of franchisees from day one.

Unique Access to Expertise: each franchisee gains access to a board-certified Medical Director, ensuring they’re operating with the highest level of clinical guidance and support.

Low Investment/High Return: Hydralive Therapy offers a low barrier to entry, magnified by a lean operational model and a manageable real estate expense – allowing franchisees to experience robust ROI.

Recurring Revenue Model: Hydralive Therapy’s membership-based revenue model provides a consistent, recurring income stream that helps stabilize the business financially and ensure steady profitability.

Flexible Ownership Models: the brand’s flexible ownership models allow for Owner/Operator, General Manager, and Executive Franchise Ownership. Franchisees choose the model that best fits their lifestyle and business goals.

Strategic Vendor Relationships: franchisees benefit directly from the brand’s established relationships with preferred vendors and suppliers – where access to negotiated discounts and deals can significantly reduce operational costs.

Corporate Support: Hydralive Therapy’s dedicated support team is fully committed to assisting franchisees, offering continual guidance designed to streamline the startup process and maximize operational efficiency.

Bright Future Ahead

Hydralive Therapy made a big announcement in June of this year, sharing the news that the brand secured over two million dollars in a growth equity raise from private investors. This influx of capital will be instrumental in helping Hydralive Therapy with its aggressive plan to expand into new markets well beyond their existing footprint. The timing couldn’t be better now that the wellness industry is booming – especially in the franchising sector. According to this year’s Franchising Economic Impact Report from the IFA and FRANdata, the personal services industry, which includes health and wellness, will maintain its top position for franchise growth. This sector is forecast to experience a 3% increase in establishments, now approximately 125,000, with output expected to rise 7.3% to $45.5 billion, while supporting over 600,000 jobs.

How CarPool is Helping Hydralive Therapy Grow and Expand

Kaitlin Johnson serves as the Vice President of Franchise Development for Hydralive Therapy. When asked about the value the brand has received through their participation in Franchise FastLane’s CarPool Program, she didn’t hesitate to emphasize the noticeable impact. “The Franchise FastLane CarPool program has been instrumental in our growth strategy through providing us with invaluable training tools, systems, playbooks, and infrastructure. Though we are an emerging brand with a lean team, CarPool’s team supports us in a way that makes us feel more organized and ready for growth! We also benefit from weekly coaching calls and monthly MasterClass sessions that are helpful in providing our team with professional growth and development skills within the franchising space. I can’t thank Jesse Hudson and the FFL Team enough for creating this program for emerging brands like us. They have truly given us every tool that we need to grow responsibly while setting us up for long-term success.”

Hear from a Hydralive Therapy Franchisee

Melissa Wright and John O’Neal are business partners and co-owners of a Hydralive Therapy franchise in Columbus, Georgia. Melissa has an extensive background in healthcare, and over the past decade she began to notice the rise in healthcare consumerism - whereby patients are empowered to make their own choices for different types of care. She explains why the Hydralive Therapy opportunity resonated with her. “There are many opportunities to gain easier access to medical care, which is positive – and I loved the idea that we could make it a personal experience while also maintaining the efficiency and ease of access that many have grown to expect. Because I’m increasingly focused on what retirement will look like, Hydralive gave me the opportunity to build wealth while remaining in the nursing world and stay connected to what I love.”
