Why Attend?


The annual convention serves as a reminder that the success of Footprints Floors doesn’t just lay in the hands of a few, but is a joint venture between all of us, and it provides the means for franchise owners to reconnect with fellow franchisees, the corporate staff, as well as an opportunity to rub elbows with and hear from some incredible minds within the flooring industry.

Don’t wait to register for our 2024 convention, and why not consider bringing an employee as well? Not only will it help them to see and experience first hand, the culture of Footprints Floors, but they can also benefit richly from the education and training going to take place!

While it is required for all franchise owners to attend the annual convention (and to stay at the host hotel) it is by no means limited to franchisees only. We welcome any of our franchise owners to bring employees, and/or family members. Keep in mind that classes and meetings, as well as most mandatory evening social events will be designated for adults only.

Attire is business casual for all events, collared shirts (no T-shirts for men with the exception of the Perspective Convention T-shirt), shorts (not athletic), jeans, pants, and hats. We request you wear Footprints Floors branded clothes during the duration of the Convention to make yourself and the Footprints Floors brand identifiable. There will be a limited selection of branded items for sale at the Convention. We also recommend bringing a sweater or light jacket with you, since personal preferences vary regarding room temperature during events.

Any guaranteed reservation not cancelled 72 hours prior to arrival will be subject to one night room and tax cancellation fee. Any reservations that fail to arrive on the scheduled arrival date will be considered “no-shows” and a charge of one nights room and tax will be posted to the individual Attendee’s credit card on file.

While the attendee may be approved not to attend, he/she will still be responsible for paying the fee associated with the annual convention.

While some expos and conventions do not allow photography or videos to be taken, Footprints Floors instead encourages it. Please feel free to take photos with vendors, of product, with friends and corporate staff. We want franchise owners to be engaged, and recognize that selfies and videos can aid in that process.

Corporate will create a designated folder in our Owner Drive prior to the convention and anyone wishing to submit photos or videos into that folder for future use by corporate is welcome to do so.
