What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Buildingstars's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Initial Customer Accounts Offering Period (ICA Offering Period) is the time Buildingstars will offer a franchisee initial customer accounts. This period begins when the franchisee starts operations, as described in Section VII.A of the agreement. Buildingstars will offer initial customer accounts totaling at least $10,000.
The length of the ICA Offering Period depends on the franchisee's Monthly Contract Revenue. The initial 90-day period applies to the first $3,000 in Contract Revenue. After that, an additional 30-day period is added for each additional $1,000 in Monthly Contract Revenue.
For a prospective Buildingstars franchisee, this means the time it takes to receive the initial customer accounts can vary. The more monthly contract revenue a franchisee is seeking, the longer Buildingstars has to provide those accounts. Franchisees should factor this timeline into their initial business planning and financial projections, as it directly impacts how quickly they can begin generating revenue.
