Franchise Dictionary Term:

Material Change Definition

Definition:
A material change is a significant adjustment in a business’s operations or offerings. It could involve a new product, process, or business area that shifts how the company functions.

Use It in a Sentence:
CoolVu made a material change by adding custom-printed wall graphics to its service lineup.

Why Is a Material Change Important?

A material change impacts how a business runs. It can open new revenue streams and meet customer needs more effectively. For a brand like CoolVu, adding architectural surfaces or new film types means staying competitive.

When a franchise makes a material change, the franchise agreement often needs updating. That way, both the brand and franchisees understand expectations, responsibilities, and support. Clear communication during material change ensures everyone is aligned and confident.

Next, introducing a new product or service involves training. Franchisees learn installation techniques, sales skills, and customer care. That preparation matters. Otherwise, mistakes can damage reputation and slow growth. Moreover, a smart change comes with marketing plans. It helps everyone sell the new offering with excitement and direction.

For CoolVu franchisees, material change is a well-managed shift that strengthens the brand, keeps the system fresh, and gives owners more value to share with clients—helping them grow with control and keep success within reach.
