What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Focalpoint Coaching's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the initial training fee of $16,950, plus any applicable taxes, must be paid when you sign the Franchise Agreement. This fee is used by Focalpoint Coaching to cover the costs of training the franchisee (or their managing owner) or a Business Manager approved by Focalpoint Coaching. The fee also covers the initial supply of business cards and marketing materials.
It is important to note that the initial training fee is uniform for all new Focalpoint Coaching franchisees. The fee is non-refundable under any circumstances. However, if Focalpoint Coaching determines that the franchisee (or their managing owner) or Business Manager cannot complete the initial training to their satisfaction, Focalpoint Coaching may terminate the Franchise Agreement. In such a case, the franchisee will receive a refund of the initial franchise fee, less $10,000 for Focalpoint Coaching's expenses.
Prospective Focalpoint Coaching franchisees should be aware of this payment schedule and the non-refundable nature of the initial training fee. They should also carefully consider their ability to complete the training program successfully, as failure to do so could result in termination of the Franchise Agreement and a loss of a portion of the initial franchise fee.
