Training

Neat Method provides a structured and comprehensive training program for its franchisees designed to prepare them for successfully operating their business. The training includes several distinct components, each focusing on different aspects of business management and service delivery.

  1. Initial Training Program
    This is a three-day mandatory training session that franchisees or their representatives must attend and successfully complete. It includes classroom instruction and covers topics essential to operating the franchise, such as business procedures and client interaction.
  2. Six-Week Extended Training
    This training includes a mix of virtual sessions, in-person instruction, and hands-on experiences. The curriculum spans multiple areas including the NEAT Method approach (14 hours virtual), marketing and business management (8 hours virtual), product knowledge (6 hours split between virtual and Chicago), and client home visits (8 hours on-site).
  3. Supplemental Training
    After launching the business, franchisees may receive additional training at the discretion of the franchisor. This training is provided without extra fees, though travel and accommodation costs are the responsibility of the franchisee.

Territory Protection

Neat Method provides franchisees with a designated Protected Territory, defined in the Franchise Agreement based on demographics and market potential. No other franchisee can operate within this area without written approval, offering a level of territorial exclusivity.

However, the franchisor retains the right to sell services online or through other channels within any territory. Some cities, like Chicago and New York, have no territorial protections. Franchisees must also meet minimum monthly royalties to maintain their exclusive rights.
