This is not a franchise offering. A franchise offering can only be made by the franchisor in a state where they are registered, excluded, exempted or otherwise qualified to offer franchises in that state, and only if they provide you with an appropriate franchise disclosure document. Follow-up or individualized responses to you that involve either effecting or attempting to effect the sale of a franchise will be made only if the franchisor is in compliance with state registration requirements or are covered by an applicable state exclusion or exemption.
