What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 C12 Group Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee is required to pay a monthly Support Fee of $200 to C12 Group for each Associate Chair they engage. This fee is intended to provide support and resources for the Associate Chair's activities within the franchise. This fee continues until the Associate Chair's CEO Forum reaches ten CEO members or generates $10,000 in Gross Billings, whichever occurs first.
In addition to the monthly Support Fee, the franchisee must also pay $110 per month for each Associate Chair to cover the registration fees for the Semi-Annual Chair Training events. This covers the cost of the Associate Chair's participation in these training workshops, which C12 Group hosts twice a year. The franchisee is responsible for ensuring these fees are paid to allow their Associate Chairs to attend the training sessions.
These fees are part of the overall costs a C12 Group franchisee needs to consider when engaging Associate Chairs. It is important for prospective franchisees to factor these ongoing monthly fees into their financial projections and business planning. Understanding the conditions under which the Support Fee terminates (reaching ten CEO members or $10,000 in Gross Billings) is crucial for managing costs and maximizing profitability.
