In franchising, the Franchise Disclosure Document and
Franchise Agreement are more than just legal documents -
they cover financial aspects of a business, quality
control, operating systems and procedures, marketing,
future options/alternatives and many other business
aspects. The work is extensive; an attorney preparing
the documents is limited to the legal process only, and
normally does not possess sufficient knowledge or
experience in all the various areas to develop the
documents and additional materials such as operations
manuals, marketing and sales items.
Below is a partial list of the products and services
we offer with the Signature Franchising Program for
accepted companies.
The Signature Franchising Program
includes preparation of legal documents, operations
manuals and marketing materials. All of these are
created by Franchise professionals assigned to your
program that works closely with you to create a
Franchise that can deliver results for you.

Required Franchise Documents
Every franchise must have a
franchise agreement that thoroughly describes the
offering made to the franchisee. In addition, the
Federal Trade Commission requires that franchisors
present to prospective franchisees the Disclosure
Document, FDD which contains detailed information about
the franchise company and its principal executives. If
the franchisor is incorporated in a state that requires
that franchises be registered state filings must be
prepared and sent to your state.
Franchise Agreement
Signature Franchising will prepare
the Franchise Agreement defining the contractual
relationship between you the franchisor and your
franchisee's. This Agreement will developed in conjunction
with input from Signature Franchising program
analysis and recommendations, and will be based on
current industry practice and recent developments in
franchise law. The Franchise Agreement defines the
relationship between you (the franchisor) and each
franchisee.
(FDD)

Signature Franchising will prepare
and submit to our franchise attorney, for review and
approval the disclosure document required by the Federal
Trade Commission and state regulatory agencies. This
document will contain required information, arranged in
the format stipulated by FTC. guidelines. This document
protects your image and reputation. It helps ensure a
uniform and consistent operation from one franchisee to
the next. It helps protect an individual franchisee from
adverse actions by another franchisee.
The Disclosure Document provides
the potential franchisee applicant with detailed
background information on the franchise company, such
as: specific details about the officers - who they are
and their business history; the organization structure
of the franchise company; the business concept; funds
required by the franchisee; training provided;
termination provisions; etc.
