The franchisor provides comprehensive training for new franchisees, covering various aspects essential for running a Miracle-Ear® Center. The training includes:
This program is mandatory for new franchisees and takes place at a mutually agreeable time and location, which may include the franchisor's home office or other designated places. The program covers the basics of franchise operation, including marketing, human resource management, business analysis, financial management, store planning, sales strategies, and information technology.
Franchisees are required to attend additional courses, seminars, and training programs as deemed necessary by the franchisor. These may include license preparation courses, advanced fitting sessions, and other educational forums. The franchisor reserves the right to require franchisees and certain management-level employees to attend an annual national or regional meeting, seminar, or convention for training or business purposes.
The New Franchisee Business Workshop is usually tailored to each franchisee's level of experience, business acumen, and other factors at the field manager's discretion. This ensures that the training is relevant and effective for each franchisee.
Miracle-Ear provides territorial protection to its franchisees as detailed in their Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).
The franchisor commits not to establish or allow any other entity to operate a Miracle-Ear Center using the proprietary marks within the franchisee's designated territory, as long as the franchisee complies with their Relocation Schedule and Development Schedule.
This territorial protection ensures that franchisees can operate without internal competition, contingent upon their adherence to the terms of the agreement and fulfillment of development and relocation obligations.
