    Studio Owner

    Merle Norman is known for its rock-solid dedication to providing Studio Owners the most extensive support in retail cosmetics. Right from the start, you'll feel the difference. We back you with our extensive resources throughout your Studio's critical start-up phase.

    Training

    All new Studio Owners attend a comprehensive, two week program at our Company headquarters in Los Angeles. Taught by our professional Training Department, the initial training covers all the fundamentals that Studio Owners need to know to manage their business -- from product knowledge and Studio management to personnel issues and selling techniques.

    Site/Lease Review

    We know that what counts most in real estate is "location, location, location," so we help you determine what to look for in a retail site. And because we also realize how important your lease can be to your bottom line, our Legal Department will assist you by reviewing the lease for your space.

    Whether you're opening your Studio in a super regional mall or a power strip center, our Studio Design Department will work closely with you, developing a floor plan for your site and helping you choose the right fixtures.

    Your Regional Sales Consultant will assist you with the many details of your Grand Opening. We also make available signage, posters, direct mail pieces and ad slicks to make your Grand Opening even more grand.
