Becoming part of the Clintar brand is an exciting process that involves many informative steps. One of the most important is setting aside time to review our Franchise Disclosure Document or FDD. An FDD is a comprehensive document that franchisors are required to provide to serious franchisee candidates. Ours covers everything you need to know about our commercial landscaping companies and our brand in general, including its history and key players.
It’s vital that you’re as informed as possible before making any investment, and a careful review of Clintar’s FDD will help you become so. Here, we take a closer look at the role an FDD plays in your franchise journey and some of the topics it discusses.
Joining the Clintar franchise family means you’re in business for yourself, not by yourself. However, you have the ability to make fundamental decisions on your own as you grow your franchise landscaping business. You also enjoy the security that comes with being part of something established, and that means adhering to specific guidelines and processes that are part of the Clintar brand. These are laid out in the Franchise Disclosure Document. While you have the freedom to run your franchise, adhering to our business model, utilizing our proprietary materials, and maintaining our brand’s culture is necessary. This consistency helps distinguish us from our competitors and sets us all up for success as we work to grow the Clintar name.
We take the franchisee/franchisor relationship seriously, so some of the most important information our FDD provides about investing in our commercial landscaping companies concerns what to expect from us as your franchisor. Our Franchise Disclosure Document spells out exactly what our responsibilities are to you. Among other things, it outlines what kind of training and support you receive, as well as what marketing and operational resources you can expect as you establish and grow your franchise. The franchisee/franchisor relationship is a true partnership — one that is critical to the success of the Clintar brand — and our FDD reiterates that.
Most potential franchisees look forward to all the information contained in an FDD, but what many people are most interested in is the cost of investing in a brand. Our FDD clearly outlines that investment. You will learn what to expect regarding initial fees, including our franchise fee and ongoing costs, like our monthly royalty and marketing fee. In order to have a well-rounded view, it is important you have a clear sense of our financial expectations. Our FDD provides that as well.
Our goal is to be as transparent as possible about your required investment with us. Our FDD will give you the necessary information to help you decide whether a Clintar franchise opportunity fits your career and lifestyle goals. In addition, we are always available during the process to answer questions you might have.
An FDD contains a lot of information about a brand, including when it was formed, who its parent company is, any affiliates it may have, and so forth. It also covers who its C-suite leaders are, as well as those individuals below them, and what experience they have that make them good fits for the brand. Knowing who makes up our corporate team will help you appreciate what our team brings to a Clintar investment and how our vision and commitment have helped establish us as industry leaders.
Be sure to set aside plenty of time to review any FDD. It contains a lot of validated information that’ll help you make an educated decision about your investment. Often, our potential franchise owners go over our FDD with their attorneys, and beyond that, one of our franchise experts can be on hand to review the FDD item by item with you to make sure you understand it and to answer any questions you might have.
