The vendor opportunity at Aussie Pet Mobile The FDD makes a financial performance representation, and it's part of Home Franchise Concepts alongside Budget Blinds, AdvantaClean, and Tailored Living.
Who controls software purchasing Item 2 names Group President Paul Ebert, Brand VP Meribeth Gunn, CEO and President Corey Benish, CMO Heather Cates, and CFO Amir Yeganehjoo. Because Item 11 already mandates ProfitKeeper and QuickBooks across the system, HQ is the confirmed decision point for that category, not the individual franchisee.
Tech named in the FDD, and what is actually required ProfitKeeper and QuickBooks are mandated under Item 11 — franchisees are obliged to use them. Bing, CareerPlug, Google Pay, and Yahoo appear as systems already in use, and Intuit is named without being required.
Procurement, renewals, and timing Item 8 runs an approved-supplier list: equipment, products, and supplies come only from the franchisor or approved suppliers as described in the Manual, with certain van upfit modifications and trademarked items required from the franchisor or an affiliate; a new supplier can be proposed for approval. Item 17 renewal requires 180 days' notice before term expiration, a renewal fee, signing the then-current agreement, and necessary business upgrades.
