Six Questions Your Made in the Shade Blinds & More Franchise Pitch Deck Must Answer
We built this franchise unit pitch deck in Microsoft PowerPoint format using our own deep-dive research into the window treatment sector. All slides come pre-populated with realistic data, including a Year 1 revenue target of $690,000 and a lean mobile operating model. You can defintely customize every field to match your specific territory and local labor costs.
Why now, and what urgent local customer need does this franchise unit address?
Homeowners in high-growth residential corridors are increasingly looking for premium, shop-at-home services that save time and offer expert design advice. This model addresses the frustration of DIY measuring and the lack of personalized service at big-box retailers.
Market Demand Drivers
- Shift toward high-end, custom home renovations.
- Increased demand for professional 'white-glove' installation.
- Growth in affluent residential housing developments.
[dynamic_pic9]
What does this franchise unit offer, and why is its solution meaningfully better than local alternatives?
This unit offers a curated, mobile showroom experience that brings the store to the customer's living room. By eliminating the overhead of a physical storefront, we provide better value and more personalized attention than traditional retail competitors.
Competitive Advantages
- Mobile showroom with premium brand samples.
- On-site expert measurements and design consultations.
- Integrated smart-home automation for window treatments.
[dynamic_pic10]
Who buys from this franchise unit, and how big is the local opportunity?
The target audience consists of affluent homeowners and busy professionals who value convenience and high-quality aesthetics. With Year 1 revenue projected at $690,000 and scaling to over $1.6M by Year 5, the local opportunity is significant in tech-heavy and luxury residential areas.
Target Segments and Size
- Projected $225,000 in Year 1 blinds sales.
- Affluent homeowners in custom-built residential corridors.
- Tech-savvy residents seeking smart-home automation solutions.
[dynamic_pic11]
How does this franchise unit make money, and what are the core revenue streams and unit economics?
Revenue flows from four main channels: blinds, shades/shutters, smart-home automation, and professional installation fees. Here's the quick math: with EBITDA starting at $272,000 in Year 1, the low-overhead mobile model allows for strong store-level margins early on.
Revenue and Margin Drivers
- Blinds and shades sales (primary revenue).
- High-margin smart home automation integration ($45k Year 1).
- Low COGS with materials averaging 11% of sales.
[dynamic_pic12]
Who are the main local competitors, and what is this franchise unit's defensible edge?
Main competitors include big-box home improvement stores and small independent installers. Our defensible edge is the combination of a national brand's supply chain and a localized, white-glove service model that big retailers simply cannot replicate at scale.
Defensible Moat
- Exclusive referral agreements with custom home builders.
- Proprietary smart-home installation expertise and tools.
- Strong word-of-mouth through high-end interior design alliances.
[dynamic_pic13]
How much funding is required, and what milestones will that unlock?
The initial startup requires a $67,500 franchise fee and $35,000 for a mobile showroom vehicle. These funds unlock a business that reaches breakeven by April 2026, just four months after launch, with a clear path to $1.6M in annual revenue by Year 5.
Funding and Milestones
- $118,000 total initial capital for key assets.
- Breakeven milestone achieved in Month 4 (April 2026).
- Scaling to $931,000 annual EBITDA by Year 5.
Finance: update unit break-even and payback model by Friday.

A foaming cleanser that doesn't dry out my skin!
Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser
I have very dry, reactive skin and initially looked past this face wash because it is foaming which is usually a no-go for my skin. I am pleasantly surprised with how well my skin tolerated this product. No dryness or irritation and my face felt clean. I also love that it is fragrance free because fragrances seem to really irritate my skin and who needs to smell their face wash? I am happy to say this is another great product from Avene!

Gentle cleanser for dry and sensitive skin.
Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser, Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser
I have dry and sensitive skin, and this cleanser has worked very well for me. It is very gentle on the skin and has not caused any irritation.
The texture is light and foamy, it spreads easily across the face and rinses off without leaving any residue. After using it, my skin feels clean, soft, and comfortable, without any tightness.
The size is quite large, which I find great because it lasts a long time with daily use.
Overall, a simple but very pleasant cleanser for sensitive skin.

Holy Grail Moisturizer for Rosacea
Style: Restorative Protective Cream-3.3 Fl Oz
In seeing so many negative reviews I felt compelled to weigh in as this is my favorite moisturizer. I have very dry, menopausal skin. Additionally, I have rosacea which seems to have been a nice gift from said menopause (you can only laugh, right?). It's very common for those of us in our 50's to have a compromised skin barrier and when an issue like rosacea is present, even more so. Because of all this my skin is very intolerant to most moisturizers and nearly all actives (over the last few years I've had to discontinue my retinols and chemical exfoliators). While ingredients like ALA's, petrolatum, mineral oil, parafin/bees wax, and lanolin are well tolerated and known to be quite soothing, they don't hydrate very well as they are more occlusive than moisturizing. Enter this product. Magically, it does both! It's marketed as a protective cream, which again implies occlusive, but it penetrates like no other. Gone is the tight, dry feeling that persisted even when I had a heavy layer of product on my skin (my previous moisturizer was Eucerin Original Healing Cream -- which still has its uses -- because it was the only thing I could put on my skin outside of squalane oil during a flare).
Now, no topical can cure rosacea. However, the right product can calm the skin, repair the damaged lipid barrier, and improve its appearance. This moisturizer does just that and it's become my holy grail. Since starting this I've also added in the Cicalfate Serum which has only aided in repairing my skin. Another Avene product that works great for me is the XeraCalm Balm which helps with itching. I use all three of these daily and they've really helped fix the secondary issues that come with rosacea.
As for the complaints about it being greasy or too heavy. I can see this not working for people with normal or oily skin (or perhaps only in moderation). But my skin loves the heavier weight and because one of the ways I soothe a flare is to keep a tiny mister bottle on hand and repeatedly spray my face so I have to guard against the drying effects of evaporation. These products are so lipid heavy that I can wet my face all day long without worrying about that, though I do reapply throughout the day.
As for the watery consistency issue, I haven't had that problem but it does caution on the packaging not to expose the product to temperatures below 41 degrees F (5 C). I suspect that if it gets too cold either because of the weather or because of whatever warehouse it sat in during transit it will separate. Maybe open the package and before squeezing some out look to see if it has split and then shake it up/message the tube.
So, if you have skin like mine don't hesitate to try this product. I'm leaving this absurdly long review for my struggling brothers and sisters out there with rosacea in hopes that it provides some relief! Happy moisturizing, internet strangers. ;)

Possible solution to seperation
Style: Restorative Protective Cream-1.3 Fl Oz
I love this product so much, but, like everyone else the water HEAVILY separated. A lot of water just shot out immediately and as i've used the cream it has felt more and more thick bc of that, shaking the tube or not.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION:
I actually think the company could salvage this problem by upgrading packaging to a Cosmetic JAR and then customers could take a toothpick and stir if separation has occurred by the time of purchase. I hope to try this with my next tube, just toothpaste squeezed everything out into a nice cosmetic jar and stir the water back into the product. This is such a simple solution that could really solve the product waste.
This refreshes my skin, doesn't break me out, and is lovely. I break out so easily, and being middle aged my skin really requires a dense help with moisture. <3

Ordered in spring/summer and it arrived separated too BUT...
Style: Restorative Protective Cream-1.3 Fl Oz
Ok, So I heard great things about this cream and decided to order. I ordered on May 28th and I live on the Gulf Coast of Texas and it is in the low 90s right now. I was worried mine would arrived separated like many others claimed to have gotten theirs, and sadly it did. Warm weather or not, blue water shot out of the tube the minute I squeezed it. Luckily, I read Mia P's review and submerged my tube in warm water (hot water actually straight out of my instant hot water faucet). I left it for about 5 minutes then shook it vigoroously. It seemed to help but was still a bit wonky so I repeated the process again and success! My tube is totally fine now and comes out in a thick, rich, emollient cream as it is supposed to. I will update my review after I use it more but so far I love the way it feels on the skin. It is very thick but spreads nicely and completely absorbs into the skin and leaves no greasy residue which is a big deal because I have oily skin. I purchased this to help with my Retin A uglies (I actually am using Musely with .05% tretinoin) and am hoping it helps with the redness and peeling I am having. I will update my review once I've used it for a while but wanted to post this review as I saw so many people complaining about the separating and just thought I'd mention that you can fix this issue if you have it (and there is a good likely hood that you will).
Update: I've been using this for a week now and I am absolutely in love with this cream! It is the most hydrating and healing cream I've ever used. Usually, thicker face creams like this would cause issues for me with acne or clogged pores as I do have oily skin that can break out if I use products with occlusive ingredients, but this one does not. In fact, my skin has never looked better! This is a must-have if you are using Retin-A/Tretinoin and going through the red/peely phase with your skin. The separation that occurred when I first received it has not been a problem and the cream is staying thick and free from any strange liquidy issues after I put it in hot water as mentioned in the first part of my review.
