What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All Team's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, while an advertising fee is not currently assessed, if All Team decides to reinstate the Advertising Fund, the advertising fees will be collected from franchisees. The advertising fee would be 1% of Temporary Employment Gross Billing and 2% of Permanent Placement Gross Billings. These fees would be due by noon on Wednesday based on the prior week's Temporary Employment Gross Billings, while Permanent Placement Gross Billings are due monthly by the 15th day of each month.
The FDD specifies that these advertising fees, if reinstated, are deducted from the Temporary Gross Billings that All Team collects under the Funding Agreement. This means that All Team franchisees would not directly pay the advertising fees; instead, the fees would be automatically deducted from their gross billings before they receive their payout from All Team.
It is important to note that the advertising fee is not currently being assessed. However, All Team retains the right to reinstate it in the future. Prospective franchisees should inquire about the likelihood of this fee being reinstated and how much advance notice All Team would provide before doing so. Understanding the potential for this additional expense is crucial for accurate financial planning.
