What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Baymont Inn Suites' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Baymont Inn Suites has the discretion to implement special promotional programs at the international, national, regional, or local level. These programs may or may not include a franchisee's specific facility. Baymont Inn Suites may also provide media advertising copy and other marketing materials for franchisees to use at their option, with the cost designed to reasonably cover the direct and indirect expenses of these materials.
Baymont Inn Suites also has the option to implement "group booking" programs to encourage the use of Baymont Inn Suites facilities for tours and conventions, possibly for an additional fee. These programs are designed to increase overall brand awareness and drive business to Baymont Inn Suites locations.
For a prospective franchisee, this means that while Baymont Inn Suites actively engages in marketing and promotional activities, there is no guarantee that every promotion will include their specific location. However, franchisees may have the opportunity to participate in optional programs and utilize marketing materials provided by Baymont Inn Suites to support their local marketing efforts. Understanding the terms and potential costs associated with these optional programs is crucial for franchisees to effectively manage their marketing budget and strategies.
