Velox Valuations offers a structured and comprehensive training program aimed at preparing franchisees to run their business successfully. The program combines in-person and virtual components, with content tailored to both practical business management and appraisal-specific skills. Here are the main components of the training:
Initial Training Program: This program includes 50 hours of instruction covering compliance, legal matters, technology services, business strategy, sales, and operations. Training takes place at Velox Valuations’ offices in Greenwood, Indiana, and includes both classroom learning and on-the-job demonstration.
Final Exam Requirement: Franchisees must complete training to the franchisor's satisfaction, including passing a final exam at least four weeks before opening their business.
Post-Opening Training: The franchisor may require additional training for the Principal Executive or employees at any time, in any format or location, with costs for travel and lodging covered by the franchisee.
Ongoing Support: Monthly videoconference calls provide continued operational support. Although not mandatory, the franchisor retains the right to implement additional or refresher courses as needed.
Supplemental Training: If more than three people attend initial training, or if training occurs post-opening (including for replacement managers), a fee is charged. Virtual training may be offered at a reduced or no fee.
Territory Protection
Velox Valuations offers franchisees a defined territory outlined in their agreement, typically based on population size, geographic markers, or other market characteristics. While franchisees are granted a protected territory in which no other Velox Valuations business will be established or allowed to market without permission, this protection is conditional upon full compliance with the franchise agreement.
Franchisees are restricted from marketing or serving customers outside their territory without written approval from the franchisor, and violations may result in financial penalties.
Although Velox Valuations provides territorial protections, these are not exclusive in the broader sense. The franchisor and its affiliates retain broad rights to operate, market, and serve customers anywhere, including within an existing franchisee’s territory, through other channels like the internet, direct marketing, or National Account programs.
