🎯🎯🎯:Daymond My friend used to think he was a target and being followed. For years, he had lots of folks convince. Then one day, we found out he was on some heavy drugs Not saying Daymond is on drugs Or he’s not. Target, but the way that flew out of his mouth wAs super tinfoil hat or super tinfoil and a straw. Either way, tinfoil seemed to be involved .
The money that she asked for were probably for the debts she owe to the designers. Their company already closed few years. I thought she's gonna be successful.
Their reasons for going out felt fishy…even if the sharks don’t like the valuation they usually counter with what they think it’s worth instead of going out if they really like the company. Odd
She breaks even monthly and valued the company at 4.6m.... what is fishy about this? It's just a business that doesn't profit. So many insane valuations that make 0 profit. The number 1 principle of a business is to be profitable & so many businesses get this wrong. At a way smaller valuation they would have jumped at offers. Damon's comments though I agree - seem really weird no idea what he's chatting there.
She closed down the business when this ep aired. Plus, she was breaking even/not making much profit while valuing the business pretty high, so it’s reasonable why the Sharks backed out.
If the Sharks thought they could make money off of this business, there would have been offers. They were looking for excuses to be “out” knowing that it’s a niche business with little potential for max profit. The guest Shark made the offer for 50% knowing it would never be accepted. Kevin knew his offer wouldn’t be accepted either.
You can always tell when a shark turns into a crawfish! Start off by buttery sweet compliments! Barbara: you have two legs and a heartbeat! For those reasons I'm out!! "
Yes it was crazy high. She is making 0$ in profit, with a revenue of 600k/year. And she thinks it's worth $4.6M for a clothing company with no moat. Any designer could go to Etsy
Kevin's deal was not bad at all! Too much pride holding on to something that's now out of business... Mark's old saying, "70% of watermelon is better than 90% grape!"
Kevin's offer was fair for a Shark pushing the company to high levels of profit. I guess she didn't really needed the money then and Kevin saw though it hence the loan offer.
They all were impressed with what she accomplished but they all gave BS excuses of why they were not going to move forward with her. The ones who did make a offer knew damn well she wasn't going to take it because they really didn't want to do business with her.
She deals with almost a hundred designers and California has laws that makes easy to sue somebody. And knowing that they have a multimilionaire partner he will be the target of these lawsuits.
she said she has hundreds of designers. giving maybe 3-5 designs each... now all of those designs needs to get vetted of copy/plagiarism to other designers... now, if one of those designs would even a tiny bit similar to another design, that said designer would target damon thinking he's rich and will just pay for the design. or sue... now if you're a small business, selling 5-10 of those. even a clear 1:1 copy, the main designer usually would just ignore you.
The Sharks’s reasons for bowing out were very questionable. Since when does valuation stop them from at least making an offer they think is more reasonable? Daymond’s reason makes no sense. In that case, every single business a Shark invests has liability because of “deep pockets.” Anyway, I’m glad she kept her equity. Only Lori’s reason makes sense.
@@SameerMalik-es5ij bruh, lets not be harsh on them. Africans, Indians and Chinese are some of the most hardworking people with very less resources. That is why they come to the west for opportunities
I would wear 2 of the 4 outfits. I love what she's doing & her mission. But clothing is tricky. Many great designers have struggled & gone bankrupt. Do theres risk, & no guarantee on margins. If she really wanted a partner, her ask was too high. She doesn't know what pitfall lie head, or what she doesn't know. I think her biggest concern is returns, fit. And holding for 3 months & returning is a problem. I buy online, HSN, QVC, & sizing is always a problem, even among the Name designers. How do these fabrics wear?
I agree is why @1106STYLES IS THE ONLY ONE I HAVE BEEN USING & I TRUST, SINCE SHE’S A FASHION DESIGNER DIRECT TO ME AT A MORE AFFORDABLE PRICE WITH ZERO QUALITY COMPROMISE.
Kevin loan deal with 12% interest, is this good rate in US? I mean why don't she go to the bank and take a loan? Since she is having 2m$ in sales ... is it still difficult to get bank loan in US?
it’s not difficult to get a loan in the US, it’s actually very easy except inflation is crazy right now and interest rates are through the roof. it is definitely a high interest rate, but it seems he made it that high due to the risk. he’s also a shark investor, which makes him much more valuable than any other investor. a shark brings more value than just money, expertise, guidance, and a platform.

All my experiences with her has been positive,she has a very broad understanding of the market and had made lots of profitable trades for me and my friends. I have never had any issues or negative experiences with her.
My understanding (which is probably way out to lunch since we only get a tiny snippet of the full pitch) is that he said because of the number of designers involved with the product line, he would have to vet every single designer to avoid some random person off the streets of California trying to sue him (textile copyright) because they know he has big pockets / money.
I check out turns out they out of businesss before the episode aired and they not paid the designer. I think the Sharks already smell the real problems in actual pitch which take 45 minutes-2 hours. That's why they out for weird reasons and Kevin give her very sh*tty deal just to get the show going.
Too many of these entrepreneurs base their company’s value on total sales. That only works when you’re profitable in the right range! If you make zero profit because you break even every month your company is basically worth zero to an investor. Even if a shark were to bring her profit from $0/month to 1 million/year that’s only $100K if they owned 10%. It would take 4.6 years to get back their original investment and over 9 years to double it. If you own a nonprofit don’t go looking for an investor!
I didn't quite understand Damon saying he would be a target with this product when he has his name attached to others products...What's the difference???
If the yare interested they would make an offer. But often they pretend that the first offer she is looking for doesnt seem right so they are out without even making a lowball offer lol
The problem with clothing like this is the current issue with people claiming cultural appropriation if people wear ethnic styles clothing that's not their culture. It's made it damn near impossible for someone basing clothing off cultures impossible.
