Training 

Initial Training Franchisees, their owners, and managers receive live initial training from the franchisor, which can take place at various locations or through online sessions. This mandatory training is meticulously designed to equip franchisees with the knowledge and skills necessary to run their businesses in alignment with the franchisor's standards.

Ongoing Training Beyond the initial training, the franchisor may provide or require additional training sessions, including supplementary or refresher courses on different business aspects. These sessions aim to foster continuous learning and professional development.

Pre-Opening and Opening Support Franchisees benefit from pre-opening and opening assistance, featuring consultations that guide them through the initial phases of setting up and launching their business operations.

Additional and Refresher Courses Franchisees, along with their owners and managers, are required to participate in any mandatory additional or refresher training programs. This ensures they remain current with the latest business practices and franchisor standards.

Experienced Training Leadership The training program is conducted by seasoned professionals who offer thorough instruction on key business operations. This includes sales, job costing, and construction practices, ensuring franchisees are well-prepared for success.

Territory Protection

Each franchisee is allocated a defined geographic territory, determined by factors such as market size and service potential. This territory might be outlined by zip code areas, streets, or political boundaries like cities or counties, typically encompassing 1 to 4 counties. Within this specified territory, franchisees are restricted to marketing, offering for sale, and selling approved products and services exclusively to customers whose job sites fall within the territory, and only for the franchisee's designated pool types.

It is important to understand that the franchise agreement does not guarantee exclusive territory rights. Franchisees may encounter competition from other franchisees, franchisor-owned outlets, or other distribution channels or competitive brands managed by the franchisor.

The franchise agreement limits franchisees from using the system or trademarks outside their assigned territory without prior written consent from the franchisor. Additionally, franchisees cannot offer or sell items or services for job sites located outside their territory, or for swimming pool and spa types beyond their specified pool types, without such consent.
