What is the deadline for a Focalpoint Coaching franchisee to begin operating the franchised business after the effective date?

According to the 2025 Focalpoint Coaching Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee must open and operate their Focalpoint Coaching franchised business within 60 days following the effective date of the franchise agreement.

This requirement means a new Focalpoint Coaching franchisee needs to be prepared to launch their business operations relatively quickly after signing the agreement. This includes securing an office location, completing initial training, and being ready to provide services. The office must be at the principal business address listed on Exhibit B and cannot be relocated without prior written approval from Focalpoint Coaching. The office can be located in a residence.

If the franchisee has not secured an approved office location by the effective date, they have 60 days to find a location acceptable to Focalpoint Coaching and receive written approval. This implies that prospective franchisees should actively search for and secure a suitable office space before or shortly after signing the franchise agreement to ensure they meet the operational deadline. Failing to open and operate the business within the specified timeframe could potentially lead to a breach of the franchise agreement.
