This includes walking through our SOP, our Porthole (intranet), making any vendor introductions, etc. This goes from the time they sign, through picking a location, and opening their doors. Once they are open and live, they have a set of meetings 90-day post-opening with others from our team for KPI training and goal setting, marketing support, and boutique and merchandising. Once they "graduate", there are 3 monthly calls that anyone can attend: Founder's call with Barry & Stacy, Marketing Call, and Operations call. We usually have a set topic in mind, but the conversations are meant to be organic in nature, and the call's facilitator is just there to guide the conversation. We, of course, have our Sea Love U, which is required for all employees/managers/owners to become Certified Scent Stylists. This has an online component and an in-store component.

Where can I see Sea Love's FDD (Franchise Disclosure Document)?

Buying a Franchise Guide: What is a Franchise Disclosure Document?

When evaluating a franchise opportunity, reading and understanding the current version of their FDD is a necessity. Considering the benefits of franchising, such as established brand recognition and support from the franchisor, it's important to also take into account franchise fees and franchising royalty fees. Since most franchisors are privately owned companies, the current versions of their FDDs are typically not available unless requested directly from them.
