What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to C12 Group's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the introductory event execution takes place 'in the field'. This indicates that the franchisee is responsible for hosting the event within their designated territory.
C12 Group provides guidance on selecting a venue for introductory events during the initial training week. While C12 Group doesn't impose strict site selection criteria, it does specify that the meeting site should maintain high-quality standards, resembling a board meeting location, such as a private country club or resort, ensuring a private, comfortable, and refreshing environment for members. Regular Business Forum meetings should not occur in member workplaces unless an exception is granted by C12 Group.
Prospective franchisees should note that they will incur the costs of hosting the event locally and must schedule it to align with the availability of C12 Group leaders or designated representatives. C12 Group also offers assistance in co-planning a C12 executive briefing event, where an experienced C12 leader will travel to the franchisee's territory to provide a C12 overview presentation to prospects and address questions, at no cost to the franchisee for the leader's travel.
