What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 C12 Group FDD, a franchisee must pay a monthly Support Fee of $200 per Associate Chair engaged by the franchisee. This fee is intended to provide support for each Associate Chair.
The monthly Support Fee for each Associate Chair will end when the CEO Forum run by the Associate Chair reaches ten CEO members or generates $10,000 in Gross Billings, whichever happens first. This means that once an Associate Chair's forum becomes sufficiently established and profitable, the franchisee no longer needs to pay the monthly support fee for that specific Associate Chair.
This fee structure incentivizes franchisees to grow their Associate Chairs' forums to a sustainable level. It also provides C12 Group with ongoing revenue to support the Associate Chairs until their forums reach a certain size or revenue threshold.
