GLO30 Franchise

Dr. Arleen Lamba founded GLO30 in 2012 around a regular skincare routine rather than occasional spa visits. The brand developed a monthly membership model and proprietary technology to help personalize the customer experience.

In January 2023, franchise development partner Fransmart announced GLO30’s national franchise offering. In October 2024, the company announced its first franchise locations in Austin, Texas, and Alexandria, Virginia. These openings marked the move from corporate-operated studios into franchise operations; announced development agreements represent planned locations rather than stores already open.

GLO30 has continued to develop its studio systems and franchise network. In April 2026, Fransmart announced a Franchisee Advisory Board intended to bring operator feedback into decisions about operations, membership experience and support. The current consumer offering includes SmartGLO monthly facials, additional skincare services and a branded product range.

GLO30’s current franchise development website describes a pre-opening program combining in-studio and virtual training. It lists guidance on site selection, studio design, staffing and operations, alongside local marketing, community partnerships, paid advertising and grand-opening preparation.

The published staff onboarding program covers estheticians and front-of-house teams. Topics include treatment protocols, service standards and hands-on use of GLOria. The site describes a two-week training system, without establishing that every component takes place at corporate headquarters.

After opening, the website describes continuing coaching, performance support and operational guidance, plus training protocols for menu offerings. Its technology supports onboarding, training, sales and the customer interface. These are the brand’s published program descriptions; specific responsibilities and services belong in the franchise agreement.

Owners also need the appropriate licensed professionals and operating arrangements for the services offered. GLO30’s franchise FAQ distinguishes business ownership from the clinical side of the studio and describes referrals to third-party providers where needed.

GLO30’s appeal is a studio organized around repeat skincare visits, personalized service and a recognizable monthly membership. The customer app supports bookings, membership management and pre-visit forms, while retail products extend the customer relationship beyond appointments.

It may suit an owner who enjoys hospitality, team leadership and local relationship building. The business requires attention to scheduling, staff standards and member retention. For an operator interested in skincare, the combination of a recurring service format and branded technology offers a specific concept to develop in the local market.
