What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Spray Net FDD, all advertising and marketing materials proposed by a franchisee in connection with their franchised business are subject to review and approval or rejection by Spray Net. This is described in Section 9 of the agreement.
Spray Net also maintains a website to promote the brand, system and proprietary marks, and will list the contact information of the franchised business on the website, provided the franchisee is not in material default under the agreement. Franchisees are also required to use at least one email address provided by Spray Net for their business and it must be the only email address used.
Spray Net may also assist the franchisee in developing and conducting the Initial Marketing Investment, but this program will be conducted at the franchisee's expense. Franchisees must also maintain and display signage and advertising bearing the Proprietary Marks that reflects the current commercial image of the System and, upon notice from Spray Net, immediately discard and cease use of Proprietary Marks or other imagery that has become obsolete and no longer authorized by Spray Net.
These stipulations ensure that Spray Net maintains control over its brand image and marketing strategies, requiring franchisees to adhere to specific guidelines and obtain approval for their advertising efforts. This is a common practice in franchising, allowing the franchisor to maintain consistency and quality across all franchise locations. Prospective franchisees should carefully review Section 9 of the franchise agreement to fully understand the scope of these requirements and the potential costs associated with marketing and advertising.
