      100% agree. I work at a hotel attached to a restaurant and they will absolutely pay $700 for a tree. However those are 9-12ft trees and his model at that price looked like maybe a 7ft tree. This would definitely be a great idea because it’s always a hassle to find a good time (or a willing person) to put it up and take it down

    • @Elloqus

      That was exactly my thought within a minute of his pitch. Families want and can spend time decorating a tree most of the time, the market for trees that set up in a minute isn't that big in that space. On the other hand, corporations and businesses, that have to put up dozens or hundreds of these across their offices, don't want to waste too many man-hours on setting up decorations. For them, saving so much time with this would certainly be worth it.

      $700 is not too much for the consumer who has disposable income. Let Wal-Mart sell sub $200 trees to people who can't afford the luxury -- but families who can afford it will spend up to $2000 for a good tree. And a LOT of families can afford that. Like way, way more families than UA-cam trolls can fathom.

    He has already put in 500K in the business. 400K for 40% means whatever he has done over the years was only worth 100K.

      No 400k for 40% imputes a million dollar evaluation meaning that he has grown his company an extra 500k

    I can't be friends with anyone who uses a fake tree. Especially if they paid $700 for it.
