Candidate Process

The exploration and discovery process normally takes about 60 – 90 days. This gives us time to get to know each other and determine if we're the right fit.

Interest Form Submission

You'll begin by giving us a quick overview of who you are (e.g., name, contact information, desired territory).

Introductory Phone Call

If you qualify, we'll set up an intro call to ask more detailed questions.

Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD)

We'll send you our FDD for review. This document provides a detailed description of our franchise offering.

Formal Application

When you're ready to declare intent, you'll complete a formal Honest1 Franchisee application.

Due Diligence & Validation

This is your time to ask questions, gather specific information, and discuss Honest1 with existing Franchisees. Additional phone calls will be scheduled as needed.

Discovery Day

Once your application is received and reviewed, you'll travel to St. Petersburg to meet your Support Team and experience the Model Training Stores.

Final Decision & Documentation

If we agree it's a good fit, we'll send the final documents for signature, and you'll begin your Honest1 journey!

There are multiple ways you can fund your business. Honest1 is proud to offer a 10% Veteran Discount on the initial Franchise fee. We also offer a 15% Multi-Store Discount on additional locations.
