What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bumble Roofing's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if franchisees wish to develop their own advertising materials, they must have them approved by Bumble Roofing before use. Franchisees are prohibited from using any advertising or marketing materials, including press releases, unless they have received advance written approval from Bumble Roofing, which may be withheld at their discretion.
Bumble Roofing will respond to the franchisee's request for approval within 14 business days. However, if Bumble Roofing fails to respond within this 14-business-day timeframe, the materials are automatically deemed disapproved.
This process ensures that all advertising and marketing efforts align with Bumble Roofing's brand standards and marketing strategies. The 14-day response window provides a reasonable timeframe for approval, but the automatic disapproval clause if no response is received places the onus on the franchisee to follow up and ensure timely review of their materials.
