Franchise Process
How to Buy a Franchise: The LOL Burger Bar Application Process
From first inquiry to grand opening, here is exactly how to become a franchise owner with LOL Burger Bar — a clear, intentional franchise application process built on fit, not pressure.
Learning how to buy a franchise can feel opaque. It should not be. The LOL Burger Bar franchise application process is designed to be transparent, deliberate, and respectful of your time — and ours. We award franchises to partners who align with our brand, not to anyone who can write a check. Here is how to become a franchise owner with us.
The Franchise Process, Step by Step
Submit your franchise inquiry
Complete the franchise inquiry form with your background, market interest, and financial profile. This starts the conversation.
Discovery call
We schedule a discovery call to learn about your goals, share the opportunity, and assess mutual fit.
Qualification & FDD review
Qualified candidates receive the Franchise Disclosure Document to review costs, support, and obligations in detail.
Territory & business planning
Together we evaluate your target market, territory availability, unit type, and business plan.
Award & agreement
When there is mutual alignment, we award the franchise and move to the franchise agreement.
Training & opening
You complete franchise training, build out your restaurant, and prepare for a successful grand opening with our support.
What We Look For in a Franchise Partner
Franchising is a partnership, not a transaction. We look for partners who want to operate and grow, who respect systems, and who care about the guest experience. Restaurant experience is valued, but the right mindset — leadership, hospitality, and discipline — matters most. Our brand values guide every award decision.
- Alignment with the Live Out Loud philosophy and brand standards.
- Financial qualifications appropriate to your unit type and market.
- A genuine operator mindset for single-unit partners; a developer mindset for multi-unit partners.
- A long-term view of restaurant investment — not a quick flip.
An Inclusive Process
We welcome partners from every background. If you are a veteran, explore our veterans program. If you are pursuing minority franchise ownership, we are committed to making the path accessible. And if you are new to franchising entirely, our resource center and franchise FAQ are a great place to start.
