INFORMATION
The Franchisee role is a position filled by individuals who are in charge of managing designated shops In and Out of Character. There are three Franchise locations, each of a different category, that can be applied for. Each Franchise location will have 2 Franchisees to manage the shop together.
Whilst in the faction, Franchisees are expected to reach 12 openings per Out-of-Character month, independently from their Co-Franchisee. Once a Franchisee reaches this amount of openings, the additional openings will not be counted towards quota. However, they are encouraged to continue to open throughout the month. Franchisees are responsible for keeping track of their shop’s item stock, and requesting additional items if the allocated items sell out of the shop.
