According to Amerispec Inspection Services's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the total revenue from National Ad Fund Fees in 2024 was $1,082,251. This reflects the collective contributions of franchisees to the national advertising fund, which Amerispec Inspection Services uses for system-wide marketing and promotional activities.
The National Ad Fund is used to promote the Amerispec Inspection Services brand and franchise system through various channels, including media advertising, public relations, and promotional programs. The funds may also cover the costs of monitoring social media related to the brand and administering the fund itself, including accounting and employee salaries related to fund management.
Amerispec Inspection Services has sole discretion over how the advertising fund is used, including the methods of advertising, media selection, and the content of advertising campaigns. While the goal is to maximize public awareness of the Amerispec Inspection Services franchise system, there is no guarantee that individual franchisees will directly benefit from advertising in their specific local market. Franchisees can request an annual statement of the advertising fund's financial condition, certified by an executive officer of Amerispec Inspection Services, to understand how the funds are being managed.
