According to C12 Group's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are generally not required to purchase or lease real estate from C12 Group. The only required purchase is the New Member Registration Kits when a new member joins a franchisee's C12 Forum. Franchisees pay a flat fee to C12 Group for each CEO Member and Key Player Member and then charge that fee (or a greater fee) to the members.

Beyond the New Member Registration Kits, C12 Group franchisees are not obligated to purchase or lease any equipment, services, supplies, fixtures, computer equipment and network peripherals, signs, inventory, or real estate from C12 Group or any specified sources during the establishment or operation of their business. This provides franchisees with flexibility in sourcing these items, potentially allowing them to find cost-effective solutions that fit their specific needs and preferences.

During the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, C12 Group received $458,500 from required franchisee purchases of New Member Registrations, which represented 5.8% of their total revenue of $7,852,914. This indicates that while New Member Registrations are a required purchase, they constitute a relatively small percentage of a franchisee's overall expenses. C12 Group also supplies a start-up supply of printed and electronic materials upon completion of initial training, as well as access to C12 web resources at no additional cost. This support can help franchisees manage their initial costs and ensure they have the necessary resources to start their business.
