Reviewed figures from each brand's Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), side by side. Each figure carries its FDD year and page. This is not a ranking or recommendation, and the two FDDs may cover different years and location groups.

- Item 19 figures cover the location groups each FDD names (Miracle Method: 1, The Designery: 6). Different groups are not directly comparable.
