Field Support Specialist (FSS) ‐ From the time you sign your Franchise Agreement this person will work with you to help you find the right space and to get your physical location open for business. Your FSS will be with you from anywhere between 6 months up to a year – however long you need.
Franchise Business Consultant (FBC) ‐ Once your store is open and operating, your FSS will place you in good hands with your FBC. This is the person that will be with you for the life of your center.
