What This Means (2024 FDD)

According to Flowerama's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the on-the-job training hours for the 'Fundamentals of pricing' subject are variable. The initial training program includes both classroom and on-the-job training, with the specific hours for on-the-job training in 'Fundamentals of pricing' varying based on the franchisee's needs.

This means a new Flowerama franchisee can expect the duration of their on-the-job training in pricing to be adjusted to match their individual learning pace and prior experience. This flexibility could be beneficial for franchisees who need more hands-on practice to grasp the pricing strategies effectively. The location for this training is at Cedar Falls, IA or Jericho, NY or via virtual communication platform.

Prospective franchisees should consider this variable training when planning their initial setup and staffing. It's important to discuss with Flowerama the factors that determine the length of on-the-job training to better prepare for the time commitment. Understanding how the 'need' is assessed and what resources are available for ongoing support in pricing strategies will be crucial for the franchisee's success.
