Floors_To_Go Franchise · 2025 FDDAnswer from 2025 FDD Document
From time to time, FTG may offer seminars focused on topics of interest to FTG members (e.g., sales and marketing techniques, retail management best practices, new product offerings, and Internet applications), in which FTG members may voluntarily choose to participate. Since these seminars are specifically designed in response to timely issues faced by FTG members, the subjects taught, as well as the formats and venues in which such subjects are presented, vary from year to year. There is no predetermined plan with respect to the locations at which such seminars are held; nor is there any predetermined plan with respect to the seminar instructors or the nature of corresponding instructional materials.

The FDD states that there is no predetermined plan regarding the seminar instructors or the nature of the instructional materials.
Prospective Floors To Go franchisees should note that attending these elective seminars will require them to bear the expenses of lodging and meals.

Franchisees must attend Floors To Go's annual convention, with Floors To Go covering the registration fee for the first convention, but the franchisee is responsible for all related travel, lodging, and personal expenses.
