What does the website and FDD audit review for compliance?

Franchise Ninja runs two related reviews of your franchise development website. Both are designed to flag issues for your team to review.

Alert
These reviews are not a legal opinion.

Website Audit

The Website Audit evaluates your site from a prospective buyer's point of view. It checks for research information a candidate expects to find and highlights what may be missing. The audit runs monthly, and the Version field shows the date it ran.

Areas reviewed include

  • Value proposition and brand story

  • Support and training details

  • Trust and credibility, such as leadership bios and company history

  • Financial information, such as investment range, fees, and Item 19 disclaimer

  • Social proof and conversion elements, such as FDD download and contact forms

Website-to-FDD Review

This review compares statements on your website with your Franchise Disclosure Document. It flags statements that may be inconsistent with the FDD so your team can review meaningful discrepancies. The report includes an executive summary, a consistency audit, a risk assessment and compliance scorecard, a critical gap summary, privacy and consent recommendations, and actionable next steps.
