Who is responsible for the travel and living expenses for the Initial Training for a Clear Pest Pros franchise?

According to Clear Pest Pros's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisee is responsible for covering all travel and living expenses incurred during the Initial Training. This responsibility extends not only to the franchisee but also to any employees or owners attending the training. The Initial Training lasts up to twelve days and takes place at Clear Pest Pros's headquarters or another designated location.

This means that a prospective Clear Pest Pros franchisee needs to factor in the costs of transportation, accommodation, meals, and other living expenses for themselves and their team when budgeting for the initial setup and training phase. These costs are in addition to the franchise fee and other initial investments.

Clear Pest Pros also requires the Managing Owner or Designated General Manager to attend periodic refresher training courses and conventions, for which the franchisee will also be responsible for all travel and living expenses. Understanding these ongoing costs is crucial for assessing the overall financial viability of the franchise. Franchisees should inquire about the typical range of these expenses to plan accordingly.
