How the Golden Years Relocation Franchise Process Works

A Thoughtful, Mutual Path to Franchise Ownership

Choosing a franchise is not a quick decision — and it should not be treated like one. The Golden Years Relocation franchise process is intentionally structured to ensure alignment, clarity, and preparedness for both prospective franchise owners and our leadership team.
This process is designed to be transparent, paced, and respectful. There is no pressure to move forward before you are ready, and no obligation until all required disclosures have been reviewed.

What Is the Golden Years Relocation Franchise Process?

The Golden Years Relocation franchise process is a step-by-step, mutual evaluation designed to help prospective franchise owners understand the business model, training, expectations, and support structure before making a decision. The process includes an initial inquiry, discovery conversation, Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) review, and onboarding prior to launch.

Step-by-Step: From Inquiry to Launch

Step 1: Initial Inquiry

The process begins when you request the Franchise Guide or express interest through our website. This allows you to learn about the Golden Years Relocation model, services, and values before any conversations take place.

Step 2: Discovery Call

If there appears to be initial alignment, you will be invited to schedule a discovery call. This is a two-way conversation focused on:

  • Understanding your background and goals
  • Explaining the Golden Years service model
  • Answering high-level questions about training and support
This call is informational, not a sales presentation.

Step 3: Mutual Qualification

Golden Years Relocation is selective by design. During this stage, both parties assess whether the opportunity is a strong mutual fit. We look for professionalism, empathy, and alignment with our service-first philosophy. You evaluate whether this business aligns with your expectations and lifestyle.

Step 4: Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) Review

Qualified candidates receive the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD). This document contains detailed information about fees, obligations, training, and the franchise relationship. You are encouraged to

  • Take your time reviewing the FDD
  • Ask questions
  • Consult with legal or financial advisors
No decisions are expected at this stage.

Step 5: Final Review and Approval

After the required review period, candidates who wish to move forward may proceed to final discussions and approval. This step confirms readiness, expectations, and next steps.

Step 6: Training and Onboarding

Approved franchise owners begin structured onboarding and training. This includes preparation for service delivery, operational systems, and brand standards before serving clients.

Step 7: Launch and Ongoing Support

Once onboarding is complete, franchise owners launch their business with ongoing support from the Golden Years Relocation team. Support continues beyond launch to help maintain consistency and professionalism.
