      I think it was mainly about Kevin and Robert fighting over the same toy and wanting to come out on top. not so much about the company itself lol. Toy's cool, but not a great sales execution

      Because 5% equity is worth way, wàaaay more money than another +$50k if they gonna blow this up. 50k is pretty much nothing.

  • @DjSharperimage
    @DjSharperimage 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +20

    It's way too expensive for a kid's toy. They need to remove the rechargeable battery, and just use AA batteries, and maybe charge like 10 dollars for it.
    And maybe make a ZipString Pro version with the rechargeable batteries.

    Damn this was wrong in so many levels. First not taking the 10% offer, then not taking the 9%, after that countering to ask for less equity instead of the same equity and more amount of money. Anyway it's still a good deal getting two shark, i assume this pitch will definitely blow up and easily will be worth at ten's million of dollars in next five years.

    This was painful to watch. They had two sharks dueling it out to get 10% for 100k and then Kevin says to Mark, “hey let’s go in on this together 20% for 100k.” Ummm what? These guys were just fighting each other for the deal to the point Kevin even drops to 9% and you agree to HALF what they offered? They did attempt to try to offer less equity but when Kevin said he needed 10% to get excited about it, they should have immediately countered with both Mark and Kevin each getting 10% for 100k a piece. I’m sure they would have took that deal. Painful.
