Merle Norman is consistently ranked the #1 cosmetics franchise in Entrepreneur magazine year after year and is ranked #34 of the top 500 franchises. Its enduring heritage, top-quality products and inviting Studio atmosphere are just part of the Merle Norman success story.
GETTING STARTED
Merle Norman Cosmetics is a franchise system, but we call our franchisees “Studio Owners.” The company is dedicated to providing Studio Owners the most extensive support in the retail cosmetic business. From the start, you’ll feel the difference. We back you with our extensive resources throughout your Studio’s critical start-up phase and beyond.
NO COSMETICS EXPERIENCE REQUIRED
Cosmetics industry experience can be helpful if you are interested in owning your own Merle Norman Cosmetic Studio, but it is not required.

Before you open your doors for business, Merle Norman provides an initial two-week training program called Home Office Training (H.O.T.) at our company headquarters in Los Angeles, CA. Taught by our Training Specialists, the program covers all the fundamentals of running a successful Studio, including:
ONGOING SUPPORT
Our dedication to assisting Studio Owners doesn’t stop after you open your doors – it’s only just begun. We are deeply committed to assisting each and every Studio Owner in the most innovative and exciting ways possible – without ever charging a royalty or franchise fee. This includes:
ADVERTISING
We make sure the Merle Norman message is seen loud and clear by running full-page advertisements in prestigious national magazines. Studio Owners can also draw from professionally created advertising materials, including local spot TV, radio scripts, newspaper ad slicks, full-color direct mail brochures and postcards, all at a minimal cost to support their business in their local market. Merle Norman even reimburses 60% of your approved media costs.
