Refresher and Additional Training: Refresher training may be mandated if performance issues are noted. Optional in-person training is available for a fee and must be arranged in advance, with costs including travel, lodging, and meals borne by the franchisee.
Territory Protection

The franchisor agrees not to establish or operate another company-owned studio or grant another franchise within the designated area for the duration of the agreement.
However, while marketing by other franchisees is restricted within each territory, Singers Company and its affiliates retain the right to sell and promote services within any territory using alternative channels such as the Internet, social media, or television.
