Frequently Asked Questions
Can franchisees bring their own equipment?
Yes. If a franchisee prefers their own vendor or equipment, we’ll compare it against the approved catalog and explain any cost, support, or compliance trade-offs.
How do program discounts work?
We negotiate pricing with carriers and technology vendors based on the collective volume of your franchise system. Those discounts are passed directly to franchisees.
Do you support multi-state rollouts?
Yes. We coordinate with carrier and technology vendors nationwide, so locations in different regions can still follow the same standardized approach.
What’s the typical opening timeline?
Timelines depend on local ISP availability. Once the internet is in place, most franchise technology packages can be delivered and installed in 1–2 visits by vendor technicians.
Do you provide ongoing support?
We don’t operate a 24×7 help desk. Instead, we connect you with vendors that provide ongoing support and service SLAs, so franchisees have the coverage they need without extra overhead.
