Training

Fundraising U provides a comprehensive training program for franchisees to ensure they are well-equipped to operate their business. This training includes an initial training program, which must be completed to the franchisor's satisfaction before opening the franchise.

The initial training spans approximately 30 days and covers a variety of topics such as business operations, sales techniques, and the use of proprietary systems. Training is conducted both in-person and virtually, utilizing a learning management system and classroom instruction.

The program also requires franchisees to complete pre-training and a "Rookie Week," with additional on-site job shadowing at an existing franchise location.

Post-opening training and ongoing educational programs are provided, which may include annual conferences and supplemental courses. These programs are tailored based on the experience and skills of the franchisee and their team.

Territory Protection

Fundraising U grants franchisees exclusive territory protection, ensuring no other outlet operates within their designated area as long as the franchisee complies with the agreement and meets performance standards.

Franchisees cannot solicit customers outside their territory without prior approval.

Despite exclusivity, Fundraising U may use alternative channels like online sales or catalogues for distinct products within the territory. If the franchisee fails to meet demand, the franchisor reserves the right to step in to maintain service quality.
