goGLOW is revolutionizing the sunless tanning industry by delivering skincare-first airbrush tanning services that go far beyond the traditional spray tan. With no smell, no orange tint, and no sticky residue, goGLOW has created a clean, plant-based, vegan, and cruelty-free tanning experience using exclusive products, proprietary solutions, and patent-pending equipment.
Each custom tanning session is a 15–20 minute, skincare-forward treatment guided by trained specialists who prioritize client education and skin health. With a streamlined footprint (1,100–1,300 sq ft, 5–6 rooms), a lean labor model (no licensure required), and high client turnover (up to 3 service turns per hour per room), goGLOW offers a simple, scalable, and profitable franchise model. Most staff compensation is tip-based, and the efficient operational setup minimizes overhead.
goGLOW’s innovative pre-launch marketing system enables franchisees to train staff, attract clients, and generate buzz and reviews before opening, accelerating momentum from day one. Whether you’re an Owner-Operator or prefer an Executive Model, goGLOW offers the flexibility and support to build a high-demand, high-margin business in the booming beauty and wellness space.
