Training 

The franchisor offers an extensive training program comprising three primary phases:

Foundations Prep Training This initial phase is conducted through phone calls, webinars, self-study, or other methods designated by the franchisor. It serves as the preparatory stage, equipping franchisees with the foundational knowledge needed for more intensive training.

Foundations Core Training In this phase, franchisees receive training in essential marketing and managerial skills required to run the franchise in accordance with the system. Foundations Core Training is periodically conducted at the franchisor's headquarters in Waco, Texas, via webinars, or at other specified locations and times.

Simulation Training During Simulation Training, franchisees engage in self-study exercises, sales training, role-playing, and marketing assignments. They also shadow employees at existing franchise locations, visit the franchisor's preferred cabinet vendor, and complete necessary design courses, which may be virtual or in-person. Additionally, franchisees must complete a sales and sales management training program with a third-party provider designated by the franchisor.

Franchisees are responsible for covering all associated costs, including travel and accommodation for themselves and any employees they wish to have trained. The franchisor may also offer additional or "refresher" training programs, seminars, regional meetings, and related activities pertinent to running the franchised business.

Territory Protection

The franchisor does not guarantee exclusive territories for franchisees. Franchisees may encounter competition from other franchisees, franchisor-owned outlets, or other distribution channels and competitive brands managed by the franchisor.

While franchisees are granted certain rights within a designated geographic area, these rights are not absolute, as the franchisor reserves specific rights within the territory.

Typically, a franchise territory will have a minimum population range, with the maximum population generally capped at 1,000,000. However, larger populations may be permitted under exceptional circumstances at the discretion of the franchisor.
