mr Wonderfull had best deal.... what is 38 cent? That was just a mental blockade, istead they gave away 25% of their company. Mark Cuban has 1500 companys... he will not give them his time.
The first valuation was a prank when they asked for considerably less. With $10 million in sales these guys had better reasoning behind their valuation than most.
I always scroll down comments and I see joke about Barbara. It's very consistent and so amazing how youtube presnts itself Barbara jokes guaranteed Whats more incredible is that it's always some another person commenting and its always a creative joke..
I would've gone with Kevin's deal. They have more than enough profit margins to no even feel the 38cent royalty. I'm sure he could've cut down their costs alot. If he cut the production cost down by 20 cents and the customer acquisition cost by 30 cents.. Now all of a sudden he just saved them 50 cents per unit, so they would've never felt the 38cents and it basically cost you nothing to have him on your team. People don't understand the value Kevin brings, just because he's not as 'flashy' as Mark. The man is a beast. His real plan is to usually help automate people's business as much as possible so they can just sit back and collect checks. Then he can turn around and sell it for them and give them a massive payday. Look what he did for Groovebook, Plated, and others. Plated sold for $300Mil. That's his real exit strategy and why he does these royalty deals. He's said so himself. The royalty gives him way more negotiating power so that way when he goes to sell the company, they will pay him a huge lump sum to buy out his royalty
i agree that kevin offered the mathematically far superior deal, but i wonder how much more value cuban brings from the business running stand point.... this is actually the only time i can think of that i couldn't be sure which deal is better for the entrepreneur
@@notimportant3686Kevin’s deal wasn’t just mathematically superior, Kevin’s deal was also far more likely to close. After the tank when it came time for Mark to sign the contract, he did what he normally does and pulled out. Kevin doesn’t usually pull out.
@@Veritas-inveniturI thought that too! If they had chosen Kevin the deal would probably go through (is this right English, by the way?) if they had chosen him then the deal probably would have gone through (or is this right English?)
I’m going to get my mom that one, because when I was in elementary school (5th grade in 1998) we had to invent something. I invented a remote control car that cleaned the house 😂
I still have a "Yearings" prank box that I gifted to my wife that I'm saving for when my daughter is old enough to find it funny. 365 sets of ear rings, one for each day of the year. 😂
For once Kevin's deal was competitive. Seemed like the guys weren't confident in their own pricing model. As Kevin stated, he would have to sell 1.6 Million of these to just make his money back, if he could sell 1.6 Million of these then imagine the sales numbers the company would be putting up. Plus he was offering existing, established digital platforms to bootstrap thos product. Great offer!
I would have gone with Mr. Wonderful after negotiating down the royalty. Also, it wouldn't be too bad if for certain key boxes based on feedback, that some boxes might actually come with the actual product.
Yeah, and you probably have a couple of Billy Basses hanging on your living room wall, right? Ultimately, nobody wants the junk when it comes to prank gifts. It's a much better idea to just sell a box where you can put a real gift in. And you weren't paying attention- they tried to go the cheap prank gift route- it didn't work.
@@mcdingus5081 Ok... It's obvious they also thought about the idea, and it's also obvious that any of the sharks could help expand on that route if possible since they always have advice and talk about what they can do with manufacturing. And it was obvious with some of those bogus items, some of the sharks actually hoped there could actually be a item in there. They don't have to do all the items, just one item. Also, tone it down. Drink your coffee, eat your Snickers bar or see your therapist. To go off on someone who just posts their suggestion and insult them is an inappropriate and telling amount of aggression on your part.
@@Rorschachqp Hah- a wee bit sensitive, are ya? I hardly went after you, you're just ultra defensive. I was merely trying to be funny and make a point at the same time. How you get bent out of shape about a Billy Bass joke is beyond me. Nothing more telling than your weird reaction. But, I guess I might be a bit on edge having to live with those Billy Basses going off at any given moment in the day.
@@mcdingus5081 Ok you can go back to your sad life now. Go talk like how you do on the street and see how long you make it. Don't bother replying, I muted you since you have nothing worthwhile to say.
It is. But Mark definitely has big name value plus you can trust Mark in long run. Mr wonderful always seems to make his profit and not care about others. Mark on other hand seems more genuine
No its not. Kevin asked for royalty, the business needs to get every cent back to pay up their debts first of all to become profitable and be sustainable
@@leanneedwards3047 Totally agree. 38 cents on the retail price of $8 is 4.75%. Extremely fair and practically painless. Agreeing to sell 25% of the company is nuts. These guys really are clowns.
I am so glad they took Mark's offer. Mark exactly knew what the potential of the business was since the start. Great guys. I hope the business takes off and they clear their debts
It's a funny and smart product. Your aunt would buy buckets and buckets of them. They shouldn't be scared to skew toward more adult products. A box for a gimp suit and give it to your dad for mother's day.

So that guy worked for The Onion when they did that 9-11 headline! 😄 They somehow made us laugh while digesting the news of that horrific event. *That* was brilliant!
This is exactly what me and my friends do when gifting something for each other's birthdays. We usually create makeshift boxes with crude Photoshoping skills on printer paper. So it's cool to see an actual company doing this in more believable boxes.
Was anyone else relieved when they revealed the boxes were empty? I was thinking for the first couple minutes “What a useless waste of a product just for a laugh. This should have just stayed in photoshop”. So glad lol
That is not how business math works! He doesn't get 25% of the revenue. Not even 25% of the profits - most of the money will stay inside the company. Covering costs, etc.
I think they could have worked down the royalty to like $0.25 maybe but it cost them less than a buck to make and they sell it eight bucks. They could even up it to like $9 or $10. There was room for that.
@@holgerchristiansen4003 business math works? Lol 25% is 25% what is negotiated with his 25% is how business works. Gtfohere with how business and math works...
First time I saw a product I was already familiar with on Shark Tank. I've used these a couple times before, going back to the old days when they were affiliated with The Onion.
LMAO I basically had this idea about 10 years ago, but it wasn't as a prank. It was more a point that people have online shopping addictions because they like the thrill of receiving a package. So, I thought, just sell empty packages.
I think Kevin is the play here. Sounds like he knows the direction of the product. Mark was rambling about sports? And saying you can package this with online retailers? Yeah right
Kevin was the better shark, but Mark had the better deal. I'm honestly surprised they got an offer, especially with such an insane evaluation! Usually Kevin goes bonkers over insane evaluations, and doesn't invest no matter what the business is!
I am not a sports fan and sports is a niche market as there are people who have no use for the product if its sports related. Especially if the team leaves the city or changes names. But Kevin was right... as a seasonal gift in rotation omg that would have been absolute killer
Why would they not pick Kevin's deal? Lol they can definitely afford 38 cents, yet they just gave up 25 percent of their business instead. Which in the long term will be more expensive.
The valuation was a prank and yet they still pulled in 640k...absolutely brilliant!
That's why Mark pulled in three time more equity

According to google, Cuban never closed the deal but as of 2022, Prank O's estmated annual revenue is six million dollars.
Thank you. I was curious. 🙂👍♥️
He pranked them about taking the deal.
They definitely made me laugh. 😂
So many of these deals don’t close.

i actually thought kevin's deal was better cause he'd have to work to get his money back. though obv mark is the better overall shark

Of course Damon has no idea what "The Onion" is. He's definitely the sort of person who passes any headline they write along as if it's real.

did not

why not just very slightly increase all the prices for products and may the 38cent royalty with no equity lost?
