Six Questions Your Once Upon A Child Franchise Pitch Deck Must Answer
We built this franchise unit pitch deck in Microsoft PowerPoint format using our own research to help you secure retail franchise funding. All slides are pre-populated with researched data like the $143,000 year-one EBITDA and are fully editable to match your specific territory. Data beats guesswork every single time.
Why now, and what urgent local customer need does this franchise unit address?
Families are facing rising costs and want sustainable, budget-friendly ways to manage their children's growing needs. This store provides high-quality goods at a fraction of retail prices while giving parents immediate cash for items they no longer use. Resale is the ultimate hedge against a shaky economy.
Local Market Demand
- Inflation-resistant shopping for local families
- Immediate liquidity for parents decluttering homes
- Eco-friendly circular economy shopping options
[dynamic_pic9]
What does this franchise unit offer, and why is its solution meaningfully better than local alternatives?
Unlike traditional thrift stores or slow peer-to-peer apps, we offer a curated, boutique-style experience with instant payouts for sellers. We use a proprietary pricing system to ensure fairness and speed, which defintely gives us an edge in the local market. Convenience is the only currency parents value more than money.
Competitive Edge
- Instant cash on the spot for inventory
- High-end, organized retail shopping environment
- Data-driven pricing for consistent customer value
[dynamic_pic10]
Who buys from this franchise unit, and how big is the local opportunity?
Our primary customers are young, eco-minded families looking for value without sacrificing quality. With a projected year-one revenue of $720,000, we are tapping into a massive local demand for affordable apparel and baby gear. Local families are your engine for both supply and demand.
Market Opportunity
- $720,000 year-one revenue target
- High-traffic retail location near major anchors
- Growing segment of sustainability-minded consumers
[dynamic_pic11]
How does this franchise unit make money, and what are the core revenue streams?
Revenue flows from the high-volume sale of gently used apparel, toys, and gear, with apparel alone expected to generate $225,000 in the first year. The model is highly efficient, as inventory purchases start at just 11.5% of sales and decrease as the store scales. Margin control is the difference between a hobby and a business.
Revenue and Margins
- $225,000 projected year-one apparel sales
- 5% royalty and 2% marketing fund
- 4-month breakeven timeline from opening
[dynamic_pic12]
Who are the main local competitors, and what is this franchise unit's defensible edge?
We compete with big-box retailers like Target and online marketplaces, but our physical presence and immediate payout model are hard to beat. We provide a 'touch and feel' experience and instant gratification that apps simply cannot provide for busy parents. Physical stores provide the trust that apps lack.
Market Defensibility
- Immediate seller liquidity beats online waiting
- No shipping costs or logistical delays
- Strong brand standards and franchisor support
[dynamic_pic13]
How much funding is required, and what milestones will that unlock?
The total capital requirement covers the $25,000 franchise fee and $185,000 in leasehold improvements to get the doors open. These funds unlock a fully operational store projected to reach breakeven by April 2026 and achieve a full payback within four years. Capital is the fuel, but timing is the engine.
Capital and Milestones
- $185,000 for leasehold build-out and fixtures
- Breakeven milestone by April 2026
- 4-year total payback on initial investment
Finance: update unit break-even and payback model by Friday.

a swim through literary magic
Format: Kindle
Reading this book reminds me of jumping into a pool of water and the way the water tickles your skin as you descend into it, then surrounds you and totally encompasses you in its liquid wonder.
There is so much here: beautiful metaphors that conjure up both visual images and the emotions that accompany it. Wonderful character development: presented with gentleness, respect and grace. An intricate plot that carries the reader along lightly and buoyantly, not calling attention to itself, but carrying through to the end. The book itself is a portrait of Theo, in keeping with the portrait style described within.

Savor Theo -A Heart & Soul Dish
*No spoilers in this review
I found this book to be an unexpected banquet for my soul. I don’t read fiction very often, but as I read Theo of Golden, I realized I am hungry for what this story offers. Based on its swift and growing popularity, I believe the world is hungry for the gift of Theo of Golden.
When speaking on his book, Mr. Levi shared a quote from David Brooks, “ To write a book about kindness does not make you kind. To read a book about kindness does not make you kind… but to buy a book about kindness, that makes you kind.” 😄
This humor & humility — a “don’t take yourself too seriously” a welcoming accessibility is in the author and this book.
I love this spirit in the story —so much so, if I could hug this book any tighter— it would be behind me. (borrowing generously from Groucho Marx )
I started to do research on Allen Levi - who wrote this gift. He chose well, hundreds of little choices, keeping him close to beauty, kindness, meaningful relationships and community. His choices of early morning devotionals and prayer and regular visits to schools and coffee houses, to write songs instead of watch tv, all feeding the character of the author. I believe you cannot share beyond where you have traveled. He has traveled to deep places. A definite Ode to Joy prior to offering Theo was to write about the last 365 days of his brother’s life they shared after a cancer diagnosis entered. His brother’s early exit from here and entrance into heaven, I believe, prepared the way for one of the greatest fiction writings of our day.
Allen Levi’s habits to avoid technology and be fully present with the people in his life bleeds beautifully onto the characters of Golden. The environment is one which doesn’t talk about technology or politics. Just people connections. He firsts introduces us, then beautifully befriends us to a better way and a place, accessible to us if we would choose to allow mindful relationships to develop. All this making the community of Golden a place to cherish. Ultimately I believe the gift is to see Golden could be grown in a hometown, a neighborhood, with all people… It’s a heart posture- a posture that Theo bestows on the town.
In my ideal world, the author would meet another great songwriter, poet, storyteller: Ray Hughes. Ray is another gift to humanity, in creativity, intelligence, and accessing heaven on earth through words. I believe there would be a powerful explosion of hope, humor and generosity in their meeting, subsequent friendship & collaboration. I’m dreaming here, and lifting a prayer to the heavens- it would be awesome!!
With a grateful heart, I highly recommend Theo of Golden.
Humbly submitted,
Dawn Holley

The end is only the beginning
Format: Kindle
Theo appears in a small fictional Georgia town named Golden. He’s a distinguished old man with a mysterious past. He’s a quiet observer; then he makes friends in a coffee house and there pursues a plan to personally gift every portrait drawing on the wall to the townsfolk simply pictured there.
As an artist, I appreciated the detailed descriptions of each face, and then the invited dialogue with each person behind those drawings. The characters Theo gets to know are varied and storied. Of even more value to me was Theo’s visit to the studio of the originator of all the portraits. Layers start getting unpeeled in this tale. I started to highlight phrases when the motivation for doing the work got uncovered between them.
There were times when I felt the main character was “too good” to be believable. I personally appreciated the subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) references to Theo being a Christ figure. But remember that Jesus was the one who said “woe to you when all men speak well of you”. The Theo who is pictured in this book, and the reactions of most around him is maybe a little too syrupy? A friend who is in my book club felt herself being “manipulated” when reading this book. I ponder that. There was a plethora of reactions to Jesus too, but I don’t think any honest quester ever felt manipulated. He let them walk freely away.
For me the significance of each face was the key theme, and each face held sorrow. There are some beautiful lines in the book around this. The ambitions: true and false in the “art world” also the business world resonated also. The Pastor’s words during a funeral at the end were valuable. And the little girl’s imagination (prompted by Theo) of all the musical notes flying on their wings into the chandeliers so that they can sing again later was a wonderful metaphor. There are some excellent passages in this book if you remain in it. As one grandmother said in this tale: “Baby, they’s justice and they’s mercy. If you not sure what to do and you gotta choose one or the other, I say always go the mercy way. If you make a mistake, make it for mercy. Bad mercy don’t hurt nearly like bad justice and always remember, the eye of God can see.”

⭐️ A Beautifully Written Story That Stays With You ⭐️
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
Theo of Golden by Allen Levi is one of those rare books that quietly settles into your heart and lingers long after the final page. The writing is intelligent, thoughtful, and beautifully crafted, with storytelling that feels both timeless and deeply human.
The characters are wonderfully developed and feel incredibly real, but Theo himself is unforgettable. I found myself learning so much from him along the way about life, people, kindness, and perspective.
Allen Levi has a gift for creating a world that feels warm, meaningful, and genuine. This was a truly lovely read, full of wisdom, heart, and beautiful prose. An easy five stars for me. 📚✨
