haha wtf, they roasted this perfectly polite man trying to get a deal. he's criticized for not accepting Debra's offer before the others had had a say, if he would've accepted Debra's offer right there and then he'd be criticized for not letting the others have a say.
It's because he didnt graciously acknowledge the offer. He just said let's see what others have to say. If he had thanked Deborah, said the percentage was quite a bit higher than he had anticipated and he would like to hear from other dragons first... it would've been received much better. A very small change, that snowballed into a problem.
You don't know how the episode might get edited down, the producers obviously like the dragons to look as good as possible as much of the time as possible
A classic case of 'you can't do right for doing wrong'. Was he just expected to accept Deborah's offer before hearing any others? I saw an episode once where the entrepreneur was made an offer and the dragon asked him if he was accepting, he nearly accepted before other dragons interjected as they hadn't made offers yet.
You’ll probably find there was some editing involved here and the full unedited version looked awkward because the other dragons weren’t really interested.
This is the first case I've seen of an entrepreneur being forced to make a decision without hearing all possible offers. He wisely kept his options open and got the 'playing hard to get' sulking from Deborah Meaden. Saying now in 2021, his market is much bigger than he thought because landlords have to do a risk assessment for legionella bacteria before letting a house or flat. The common source of legionella is the shower hose drooping down and curving up to the shower head when not being used - the static warm water can breed bacteria and release it as an aerosol (small droplets of liquid) which the shower-user breathes in as soon as he or she turns on the shower.
I've watched lots of those but I got to say that this felt wrong. I don't know what happened here, but It seemed like she was kind of bullying him because he wanted to listen to other people's offer, to then make a drama out of his intention of getting the best offer that he could've gotten. Also awkward how all the other dragons were like "oh, I cannot take Deborah's offer, she was nice to you with that 40%". Weird one.
Not many people filling a kettle in a health club, Duncan. Legionnaire's disease gets its name because of an outbreak in a hotel, not someone's kicthen. But he's right that tackling it in the tank would be the way to go.
@@jojokoko1569 Hello you intellectual GIANT. In the context that you aimed for and spectacularly missed, it is YOU'RE, rather than your. Guess you slipped the leash from YOUR, (did you see what happened there) carers, hopefully YOU'RE (and again), back in their (not there) control, soon to be medicated. Try again?. 🙂
Lol I really thought, Duncan would be interested in this product, as he has chain of fitness clubs and hotels. He could have been a pioneer in the leisure industry and also increased the premiums on his gyms and rooms. Seemed like a win-win.
In what way was she rude? EDIT: Ah yes, just seen it lol. She should know more than anyone that a 40% slice is a huge decision for anyone that requires a careful consideration of all the options
When she made an offer for 40%, I was thinking "You should take that offer"! Once she demanded that he responds immediately to her offer, I started shouting "Dude, run away!". I don't understand what she wanted him to say. The fact that the other Dragons seem to defend her makes me think that maybe some things were said off camera.
To be honest I can understand Deborah was frustrated, he didn't seem very keen on the offer like he was hoping another dragon he would rather work with would put an offer in
Why were they acting weird about him wanting to hear other Dragon’s offers? Deborah offered him the money for a whopping 40% of the company - of course he’s going to see what the others were going to offer.
@Theo Volz exactly what I said!!! And the answer is, because it’s a show. Most of the offers made and accepted fall through as soon as the cameras are off...
If all 250k showers across UK hospitals were fitted with the filters, then with this product being a better substitute for the current filters. That's 250k sold units! Just by supplying the hospital demographic! For extra revenue, offer hospitals installation discount rates when purchasing the product. Make a deal with a plummer to take a commission for each installation job of the product.

dude almost 150,000 is a lot to ask for. A lot of these people ask for 80,000 and walk out with a 20% deal why is 150k for 40% so bad? especially when he isn't even making money off them yet

i think that if he showed he had the balls to offer them 30% - they would have settled for 35% but because he was bad at this negotiation - that counted against his ability to negotiate on behalf of the business at any later stage - so meant that that job would always entirely be on their shoulders.. so they felt they deserved 40%..
Disgusting, bullying her way into an unfavourable deal. Was this series filmed a hundred years ago? These dragons behave like landed gentry having to hand out charity to ungrateful paupers.

60% of a great cooperative deal with the Dragon who most likely can get you rolling is better than keeping 100% and walking out all on your own with no capital.
People in the comments who are confused about them being unusual or even mean to him. That's a perception you can have, but this is what conning looks like. They often do it as a team on DD, basically they help each other out on different offers to get insane deals like this. This was an extreme case. They robbed him blind.
I hate it when entrepreneurs get an offer, say a half-assed "thanks, but what do others have to say". Negotiate immediately, keep the Dragon interested and do not leave the Dragon hanging and risk losing all offers.
Technically there's never an elevator. The one in later seasons is basically just a small room with two sets of doors pretending to be one, everything's on one level in the studio.
@@TheAazah It turns out that many things that appear on one's television screen are not, in fact, real, and are just there for dramatic purposes. www.quietrebellion.com/blogs/news/dragons-den
Having worked in compliance I’m unsure what the value of this product is. Legionella is a risk, yes, but it’s one that’s quite easily managed with a good risk assessment, regular flushings, and temperature checks. A small business could easily afford the training for a member of staff to learn how to carry out and record flushings and temp checks and get a contractor in to do a risk assessment every couple of years. A larger business could outsource the whole kit and caboodle to one of the many water management contractors out there. Installing this bit of kit doesn’t remove the HSE requirement to risk assess your water system nor should it stop the need for regular flushing and temperature monitoring, so it’s just a substantial additional expense on top of what an organisation should already be doing which, if they’re doing it competently, is more than enough! Plus the fact it’s a non-standard piece of equipment so if it fails only a small number of people will be able to repair it - yet more expense. All I can see this product doing is engendering exactly the sort of complacency and negligence that results in a legionella outbreak. If this chap had actually got some water management companies expressing interest in stocking the product then maybe it would’ve been a viable investment, but as it stands Deborah and Theo were victims of their own ignorance and the ignorance of the pitcher. They should’ve listened to Duncan, he was a bit fuzzy on the technical detail but he clearly knows there are cheaper and equally effective ways of managing legionella.
The point of this invention is that there is no risk once you install these showers. And, as Peter Jones pointed out, it would be possible to sell the units for the SAME price as a regular shower but still make a significant profit. The question then immediately becomes, why WOULDN'T any hospital etc install them?
aartadventure but the HSE requirements for managing legionella are written into legislature and would remain the same unless the government changed them. Organisations would still have a legal obligation to employ or contract someone to assess and manage the legionella risk - why would they then go to the additional expense of installing non-standard equipment that is no more effective at controlling legionella than making sure your water temp is either too hot or too cold for the bacteria to survive, regularly flushing your outlets, and maintaining the condition of your water system? It’s an over engineered solution to a problem that barely exists - when legionella outbreaks happen it’s almost always due to complacency and negligence, which this invention cannot prevent.
CalLadyQED They’re a general purpose antibacterial filter used by hospitals to manage the risk of legionella and other possible water contaminants. They’re case in point as to why this invention is not a good investment - hospitals spend money installing the filters as one tool in their legionella management toolkit but they still have to meet HSE guidelines and pay someone to assess and manage the legionella risk, check the water temperature at every outlet monthly, flush every outlet weekly, and maintain/replace the filters as needed. The filters are bog standard kit that water management contractors know how to maintain, this is novel technology that would require a separate contractor to maintain/repair when it fails. If he’d come into the Den and said “I’ve spoken to the three biggest water management companies in the UK and they’re all interested in stocking my invention” it might be a more reliable investment. But the fact he wants to try selling direct to the duty holders belies an ignorance about how legionella compliance is managed and legislated.
Because Peter he said 77% gross his net is 56% so if he dropped 50% he would only get 6% net, he should drop but not equal, just 30% so hes only £20 more and hel be able to afford a beach in marbeya not Blackpool beach with his 6% and thats before the investors return of 30 to 40% of his 6% so he will end up with 4% if hes lucky, 4% of the mean average £90 per shower so a net of £3;60 per shower, he will sell a lot but yeah. dropping 30% he will have 26% to play with befor an investors return so he will hopefully make £15 per shower, but I think his price is right, a company that has a duty of care to only pay an extra £50 each for a product that will be used across thousands of people is not unfair to ask, to be honest this should be legislation, UVC light should be everywhere.
At this point NOBODY really wanted to go against her. She held her ground and was always up for a fight. New seasons she’s calmed abit, but still a force you wouldn’t want to go against. Any doubt in your argument, she would find it and rip you a new one for it. Kinda legendary

He still features on both Theo and Deborah's websites but there is no mention on companies house as to whether they are still (or were ever) bonafide directors in the company.
Peter’s hair 🧐
Duncan : I'M OUT , OK ! ( before anybody's even said anything !)
ahahaqha, the guy was clueless all the way thru, they played him like a pawn.
Really? Look at the business now..
They did 770k last year
what I meant was his negotiating tactics was non-existent.
@@RaccoonNation proof?
CH shows 250k total equity June 19 down from 288k June 18. Will be even less June 20 thanks to corona. The company's in the doldrums clearly.
How do the Dragons find time to support the businesses they invest in ? The list just gets longer and longer every episode.
They gang on him 🤧 Khan and Jones killed it! He was on driving seat 30% was possible.
Ohhhhh, where WERE you, just when he needed an educated, well informed advocate...?.
Wow they roasted this poor man knowing they can bend him and they done exactly that trying to rinse him for his business and money, that was a little bullish
60% of a great cooperative deal with the Dragon who most likely can get you rolling is better than keeping 100% and walking out all on your own with no capital.
Damn, Duncan was out in a couple minutes. Jenny would be proud.
Duncan is always rude and out!
He regretted that afternoon
People in the comments who are confused about them being unusual or even mean to him. That's a perception you can have, but this is what conning looks like. They often do it as a team on DD, basically they help each other out on different offers to get insane deals like this. This was an extreme case. They robbed him blind.
I must be going bloody mad here but Deborah kinda looking saucy in this clip👀🤣
Yes agree, it was the best she looked
I hate it when entrepreneurs get an offer, say a half-assed "thanks, but what do others have to say". Negotiate immediately, keep the Dragon interested and do not leave the Dragon hanging and risk losing all offers.
Shower heads have been around for ages
Your lack of attention to detail has been around for ages.
I agree. We did t worry about leganela in the eighties.
@@patrickthornberry3646 tbf, you didn't worry about a lot of things in the 80s.
So is it 2 dragons at 20% each and £75000 input. Each.
Peter lost his comb
Debra lost her rag
Peter got ginger hair
Peters a GINGER
Wow. That's incredibly childish.
"got"? You mean like he had ginger implants?
@@BenjaminGoose he was born ginger he dyes his hair
He should not accepted that deal
Business renamed to HELMORE INDUSTRIAL WATER TREATMENT LTD, still active - seems like they didn't make millions but they're still operating.
I would get it for my house...
It's well worth the investment.
Duncan wishing he hadn't pulled out so early
The dragons are rich but they are using cheap ball point pens.
and 'BIC' is a billion dollar company with a product in virtually every home on earth....
And?
I don't see the point of spending hundreds of pounds on a single pen.
It's what you write and not what you write with that counts.
@@youmustbefibbing7376
I agree.
He's attracting millionaires by getting rid of legionnaires.
This is too underrated
Strange watching this with the pandemic.
Get out.
It's quality when there's no elevator.
Technically there's never an elevator. The one in later seasons is basically just a small room with two sets of doors pretending to be one, everything's on one level in the studio.
@@lotsofspots
Can I call bs. That makes no sense
@@TheAazah It turns out that many things that appear on one's television screen are not, in fact, real, and are just there for dramatic purposes. www.quietrebellion.com/blogs/news/dragons-den
well my friend was on dragons den and I can confirm that it is just 2 doors
The dragons behaved so strangely in this one.
they look like 5 serial killers
Having worked in compliance I’m unsure what the value of this product is. Legionella is a risk, yes, but it’s one that’s quite easily managed with a good risk assessment, regular flushings, and temperature checks. A small business could easily afford the training for a member of staff to learn how to carry out and record flushings and temp checks and get a contractor in to do a risk assessment every couple of years. A larger business could outsource the whole kit and caboodle to one of the many water management contractors out there. Installing this bit of kit doesn’t remove the HSE requirement to risk assess your water system nor should it stop the need for regular flushing and temperature monitoring, so it’s just a substantial additional expense on top of what an organisation should already be doing which, if they’re doing it competently, is more than enough! Plus the fact it’s a non-standard piece of equipment so if it fails only a small number of people will be able to repair it - yet more expense. All I can see this product doing is engendering exactly the sort of complacency and negligence that results in a legionella outbreak. If this chap had actually got some water management companies expressing interest in stocking the product then maybe it would’ve been a viable investment, but as it stands Deborah and Theo were victims of their own ignorance and the ignorance of the pitcher. They should’ve listened to Duncan, he was a bit fuzzy on the technical detail but he clearly knows there are cheaper and equally effective ways of managing legionella.
The point of this invention is that there is no risk once you install these showers. And, as Peter Jones pointed out, it would be possible to sell the units for the SAME price as a regular shower but still make a significant profit. The question then immediately becomes, why WOULDN'T any hospital etc install them?
aartadventure but the HSE requirements for managing legionella are written into legislature and would remain the same unless the government changed them. Organisations would still have a legal obligation to employ or contract someone to assess and manage the legionella risk - why would they then go to the additional expense of installing non-standard equipment that is no more effective at controlling legionella than making sure your water temp is either too hot or too cold for the bacteria to survive, regularly flushing your outlets, and maintaining the condition of your water system? It’s an over engineered solution to a problem that barely exists - when legionella outbreaks happen it’s almost always due to complacency and negligence, which this invention cannot prevent.
@@greghanson8768 , then why do the hospitals have the filters?
CalLadyQED They’re a general purpose antibacterial filter used by hospitals to manage the risk of legionella and other possible water contaminants. They’re case in point as to why this invention is not a good investment - hospitals spend money installing the filters as one tool in their legionella management toolkit but they still have to meet HSE guidelines and pay someone to assess and manage the legionella risk, check the water temperature at every outlet monthly, flush every outlet weekly, and maintain/replace the filters as needed. The filters are bog standard kit that water management contractors know how to maintain, this is novel technology that would require a separate contractor to maintain/repair when it fails. If he’d come into the Den and said “I’ve spoken to the three biggest water management companies in the UK and they’re all interested in stocking my invention” it might be a more reliable investment. But the fact he wants to try selling direct to the duty holders belies an ignorance about how legionella compliance is managed and legislated.
Because Peter he said 77% gross his net is 56% so if he dropped 50% he would only get 6% net, he should drop but not equal, just 30% so hes only £20 more and hel be able to afford a beach in marbeya not Blackpool beach with his 6% and thats before the investors return of 30 to 40% of his 6% so he will end up with 4% if hes lucky, 4% of the mean average £90 per shower so a net of £3;60 per shower, he will sell a lot but yeah. dropping 30% he will have 26% to play with befor an investors return so he will hopefully make £15 per shower, but I think his price is right, a company that has a duty of care to only pay an extra £50 each for a product that will be used across thousands of people is not unfair to ask, to be honest this should be legislation, UVC light should be everywhere.
I 'used' to like Deborah.
Why did you put used in quotation marks
She never knew to care.
4 years of struggle then give nearly half of the business away?
He's stuck though and hasn't made any money. 60% of something is better than 100% of nothing.
Very odd dragons den. Never seen one like this.
Ducan is gutted he pulled out of the deal early I reckon
200.000 units and a million more on their way
Prototypes currently installed on Kamino
He then farted three times and passed out in the shower
Deborah is very rude, Im out!
He just wanted to hear from the other drangons.... Whats the big deal??
gender discrimination
Because it could cost me more money lol
Is this Dragons Den or "let's not undercut Deborah" show?
At this point NOBODY really wanted to go against her. She held her ground and was always up for a fight. New seasons she’s calmed abit, but still a force you wouldn’t want to go against.
Any doubt in your argument, she would find it and rip you a new one for it. Kinda legendary
Where are the Jenny comments???????
I have the vaccine for corona.
Jenny: "I'm out."
Because Jenny knows it it’s a hoax...
You have a vaccine for a beer? Or did you mean coronavirus? :)
@@BenjaminGoose
Coronavirus.
Good. This isn't America.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
