Opening a childcare franchise with Children’s Lighthouse is a straightforward and transparent process that involves a number of informative steps. One of them is taking the time to go over our Franchise Disclosure Document or FDD. An FDD is an important document required by law for all franchisors to have and that goes over everything you need to know about a brand, including its history, its value propositions, and key players. It’s vital that you be as well-informed as possible before making any kind of investment, and a careful review of our FDD will help you with ours. Here, we’ll take a closer look at what sort of information you’ll find in the Children’s Lighthouse FDD.
What’s Expected of You
In order for a brand and its franchisees to enjoy the most success, it’s important that the processes and guidelines put in place be followed. These are laid out in our FDD. Sticking to our business model, proprietary materials, and brand culture ensures consistency and allows all our preschool owners to succeed. You’ll have plenty of freedom to make your franchise your own, but it’s important to remember that you’ll be a face of the Children’s Lighthouse brand, so it’s vital that you do business using our time-tested procedures.
