What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Coffee News Franchise Disclosure Document, the Coffee News online edition has a drop-down menu on the main site that allows users to find specific online editions. Each franchisee gets a dedicated URL for their online edition, such as www.coffeenewsonline.com/ME/Bangor. The drop-down menu helps users locate these individual editions.
This feature is part of the Basic service for Coffee News Online, which costs franchisees $25.00 per week. The Premium service, which includes email marketing services, costs $50.00 per week. Both services provide ad spaces for sale and other features to enhance marketing opportunities and generate additional advertising revenue.
For a prospective franchisee, this means that the online platform is designed to be easily navigable for readers seeking local Coffee News publications. The drop-down menu ensures that each franchisee's online edition is accessible, potentially increasing visibility for advertisers and engagement with the local community. Franchisees are responsible for uploading advertisements and event content into the online system.
