FAQ
Foot Solutions is a global foot wellness retailer providing solutions for foot pain and mobility issues through 3D-printed custom orthotics and expert-selected supportive footwear
Custom orthotics from Foot Solutions are designed exclusively for you by a professional after a laser scan and foot and gait analysis. They are precision-designed by our experts to improve balance, correct alignment, and relieve pain. They optimize and maintain the complex machinery that exists inside your feet—what Leonardo da Vinci called “a masterpiece of engineering and a work of art.”
Compare a 3d printed custom orthotic from Foot Solutions with an over-the-counter insole or arch support from competitors. These products are inferior to Foot Solutions and sold the same way an off-the-rack suit is sold in a department store. The fit may be okay, but it is not optimized for your needs.
Key Advantages Over Competitors
- Laser Scanning and Gait Analysis: Foot Solutions uses high-tech laser scanners and expert gait analysis to capture your foot’s exact shape and movement, creating an orthotic that matches your unique biomechanics, whereas many competitors offer generic insoles or less precise “customized” versions.
- Truly Custom, Not “Off-the-Shelf”: Competitors often modify pre-made inserts (e.g., by color choice), while Foot Solutions creates a unique 3D printed device from scratch, addressing individual issues like overpronation or supination.
- In-House Labs & Expertise: We operate our own labs for faster, precise manufacturing and have trained foot health experts, increasing credibility and quality control. We train for medical expertise, not high pressure sales.
- Targeted Problem Solving: Foot Solutions addresses specific issues (bunions, shin splints, diabetic foot issues, back pain) by alleviating the root cause, not just providing cushioning like many insoles and arch supports.
- Trusted by the Medical Community: Foot Solutions works closely with medical professionals who every day refer their patients to Foot Solutions for expert help in footwear selection and custom orthotic design.
Our foot health experts are not doctors. We are value added allies to physicians and qualified healthcare professionals, such as Podiatrists, Orthopedists, Physical Therapists, and Rheumatologists. We craft custom orthotics and supply supportive, recommended footwear, thereby enabling a patient’s foot wellness goals. In addition, many of our stores are accredited with Medicare and serve diabetics with custom diabetic insoles and orthopedic footwear.
No. Our franchisees come from all walks of life. We invite competent and energetic professionals to join our system and then train them with the skills needed to be successful
Foot Solutions provides franchisees with intensive initial and ongoing training as well as operational and marketing support. However, operating a Foot Solutions is more complex than many other franchised businesses. While our complexity differentiates us in the market, it also necessitates we only sell franchises to individuals and operating groups that can maintain the quality and competency our brand requires. In short, we will only grant a franchise territory to persons we are convinced—after deliberate analysis and intensive consideration—will be successful in the system.
Successful franchisees will possess and/or employ persons with the following traits:
An ongoing desire to learn new skills
An ability to build and maintain a referral network in the medical community
An ability to understand and distill complex medical topics into simple language
An understanding of retail operations and inventory management
A motivation to serve and help people
An ability to sell with confidence
Foot Solutions performs best with owner involvement, especially in the first 2 years. Semi-absentee ownership may be possible with the right management structure.
Please refer to our current FDD for the answer to this question. In most cases, an investment of approximately 200K dollars is sufficient to open, not including working capital requirements.
Over 70 locations globally and over 50 in the United States and counting.
Yes! We do not oversell territories and we work with you to ensure your territory covers a sufficient population to succeed.
