What This Means (2025 FDD)
Based on the 2025 Boulder Designs Franchise Disclosure Document, the information provided does not include the specific training schedule or total training time for Day 5 of the initial training program. While the document mentions that the initial training program is approximately five business days, it only provides details for Days 1 through 4.
For example, the FDD details that Day 1 includes orientation, an introduction to the Boulder Designs method, franchise support personnel, and hands-on training using all equipment and methods associated with Boulder Designs technical training review. Days 2 and 3 consist of reviews of the previous day and hands-on training. Day 4 includes Photoshop training, presentations, sales, lead generation, tradeshows, social media/digital marketing, and business planning.
To get a clear understanding of what Day 5 entails, a prospective Boulder Designs franchisee should ask the franchisor for a detailed breakdown of the topics covered and the total training hours scheduled for that day. This information is crucial for planning and understanding the full scope of the initial training program.
