What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to the 2025 Amerispec Inspection Services FDD, the advertising fees must be transmitted to the company at the same time and in the same manner as the royalty fees. This means that the method of transmitting the advertising contribution will be the same as how the franchisee pays their royalty fees.

The FDD states that these fees will commence at the same time as the royalties described in Paragraph 5.1. The advertising fund is used for the general promotion of the Amerispec Inspection Services brand. This includes media advertising, public relations campaigns, promotional programs, social media management, and the reimbursement of promotional materials purchased by franchisees.

The company has sole discretion over the methods of advertising, media selection, advertising location, and the content of advertising campaigns. While the advertising aims to maximize public awareness of the Amerispec Inspection Services system, there's no guarantee that individual franchisees will directly benefit from advertising in their local market. However, Amerispec Inspection Services will provide an annual statement of the advertising fund's financial condition if requested by the franchisee.
