What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Exit's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Effective Date for Exit Associates who are not Sales Representatives is determined by two conditions. First, a written contract must be executed with a Franchise, Subfranchise, or Exit. Second, the online Exit Associate Profile must be completed.
These two conditions are prerequisites for Exit Associates to receive the remuneration package outlined in the document. Until these requirements are met, Exit Associates are not permitted to use the Exit trade name or any other proprietary marks of Exit on business cards, signage, or in any published media.
For prospective franchisees, this means that the date they can start fully operating under the Exit brand and receive compensation is directly tied to fulfilling these contractual and administrative steps. Ensuring these are promptly addressed is crucial for a smooth onboarding process and to begin benefiting from the Exit system.
