  1. With 298 active personal services brands, I can't see which ones are growing or have the tech gaps my product fills, so I waste weeks chasing the wrong targets.A rep burning 10 hours/week on manual research at $50/hr loses $26,000/year.

The vendor opportunity at Maximized Living Health Centers

Maximized Living Health Centers operates 73 franchised locations, all within the personal services segment. The 2022 Franchise Disclosure Document reports an average unit volume of $941,171 and an 8.0% royalty fee. Year-over-year unit growth was -2.667%, indicating a slightly contracting footprint. For software vendors, this is a small but tightly controlled network where a single corporate decision can unlock deployment across the entire system. The initial franchise term is 10 years, and the parent entity is Maximized Living Partners, LLC.

Who controls software purchasing

Corporate governance sits with a small leadership team. The 2022 FDD names Shel Hart as Chief Executive Officer and Director, and Leslie Lopez, CPA, as Vice President of Finance. Additional directors include Dr. Peter Gianforte, Dr. Greg Loman, and Dr. Sarah Losby. Because the franchisor mandates specific technology platforms, the buying center is centralized at HQ. Vendors should direct outreach to the CEO and VP of Finance, who are the most likely approvers for any system-wide software investment.

Mandated and current tech stack

The FDD explicitly mandates four categories of technology. Franchisees must use a chiropractic practice partner software, the MaxLiving integrated web platform, and point-of-sale software. The specific third-party vendor behind the practice partner and POS systems is not named in the extracted data, but the mandate itself signals that any new vendor must either integrate with or replace these required tools. The MaxLiving web platform is proprietary, suggesting the brand invests in custom digital infrastructure.

Procurement, renewals, and timing

Item 8 procurement details were not extracted in our corpus, so the formal supplier designation model remains unconfirmed. However, the renewal structure provides clear timing signals. The initial 10-year term can be renewed for successive 5-year periods. To renew, a franchisee must notify the franchisor 180 to 270 days in advance, execute the then-current franchise agreement, and complete any updated training requirements. This cadence means that every 5 to 10 years, franchisees must align with the latest system standards, creating natural windows for HQ to mandate new software or renegotiate vendor contracts.
