What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Augusta Lawn Care's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, you are asked to confirm whether you have discussed the benefits and risks of developing and operating an Augusta Lawn Care business with an existing franchisee. This confirmation is part of a questionnaire included in the FDD.

The questionnaire includes a series of 'yes' or 'no' questions that you must answer. Question 6 specifically asks: 'Have you discussed the benefits and risks of developing and operating an Augusta Lawn Care Business with an existing Augusta Lawn Care franchisee?' You are required to indicate whether you have had this discussion.

While the FDD asks for this confirmation, it does not explicitly state that a 'no' answer would disqualify you from being awarded a franchise. However, answering 'no' might prompt further discussion with Augusta Lawn Care about your understanding of the business and its potential challenges, as it is generally advisable to speak with current franchisees to gain firsthand insights.
