I loved how Peter just threw his head back at the beginning of the pitch. OMG another Amway/Tupperware/Mary Kay Pyramid Scheme. She's only done ten parties ? She's barely started this company. £6,000,000 in the second year is absurd.
Well, it worked for Tupperware for a very long time, but I personally wouldn't buy into the baby product maket. It's rife with lawsuits from choking hazards, to the toxicity of paints. You'd need to vet and test every product.
The website is still up and running with the last posting in late June trulymadlybaby But nothing about Dragons Den on the website that I can find, wonder if the deal fell through
I can only assume the Dragons are thinking gift registry. Party Planning is a mode with a bad reputation, and whilst it can be legit, she would be plagued with high turn over, of party planners, with few in it for the long term. Company closed in 2016, and the website, is utter junk.
I'm truly appreciative of a very open advisor like Mr Alfred Maxwell, it really makes a difference having an advisor who presents opportunities and materials to you. The difference in being the engine and another enjoying the services.
The £6m isn't difficult in itself IF they can get 500 consultants. The equation is Turnover/consultants/average party spend. So £6,000,000/500/250(based on the figures from 10 parties) = 48. Meaning each consultant would have to do just 1 party per week and still have 4 weeks off. The hitch of course is getting the 500 consultants. But if they could, it's doable.
@@Otto72ish Neither of you have factored in salaries for the consultants. They will need a significant share of those profits, otherwise why would they bother?
imagine being very nervous and making a pitch to these millionaires who roll their eyes, yawn and show great disrespect. it would be a great episode if the person asking for money called the millidiots out and said you should learn some manners and just because you are rich does not entitle you to disrespect me so take your attitude and money and shove it
Scaling down her projection of 500 consultants generationg £6 mln turnaround / £1,8 mln profit and taking into account possible errors and unforseen costs the company should be generating *around £3,000,000 turnaround and £1 million profit* , but the latest financial report I can find is from 2013, despite their website being updated in 2022 and an article where they say the company is 11 years old (the company was found in 2008, so the article seems to be from 2019/2020). I also found a website where their revenue is £5 million, but I can't find the year of the report.
Search says company was dissolved 6 December 2016. Last report was 2013. I am just happy for them to get a shot at all. I have a feeling that clamp down child birth may have contributed to the dissolution, also maybe they went on to something better. I hope so.

I'm really surprised that two of them wanted to invest in a pyramid scheme. Not that pyramid schemes are necessarily bad, just that I would have thought that they would have thought that they were.

The second I heard "we do this by having parties" I knew this was gonna blow. That's an MLM sweetheart

Well, it worked for Tupperware for a very long time, but I personally wouldn't buy into the baby product maket. It's rife with lawsuits from choking hazards, to the toxicity of paints. You'd need to vet and test every product.
Whereas you can sell anything you like for adult consumption?
They ended up achieving 450 consultants and sold the company for £380 million! One of the best deals Peter ever made
😅😅😅
She was playing with fire asking him to go to 40% after he came down from 50% to 45%. He wasn't happy about that.
you've got to try your luck! i also think the husband brought some confidence in the den for his honesty!
Peter saying to her at 12:26 : But you already said that you are going to go with me " was just hilarious 😂 , sorry minds in the gutter today lol .
well she did split from her husband (according to her blog) ...
Jenny: This isn't suitable for my 2 strapping lads at home and for that reason I'm out
I raised all 4 of my children despite women like her insisting that it's mums all the way. What a shake her prejudiced type still exists.
Doug Richard is only "in", if the company is very young and yields a passive return.
Thought Doug woulda been all over a kids party.

Cant believe theyre still showing this nonse.
Well done. He deserves every comedic piece of banter 🤣

Yep I do run Live it Love it Sell it! 😊 and I’ve loved reading this comments thread - it’s very clear nobody knew what actually happened
It's interesting how merely seconds into the pitch, multiple dragons were acting nasty.
Because it’s very clear from the first few seconds, that this woman is pitching a pyramid scheme (MLM).
Tell me you don't know what editing is without telling me you don't know what editing is.
I'm so glad nobody came at me with anything like this while I was pregnant.

Surely the hitch is getting customers who want the product
But 6,000,000 divided by 500 consultants is only £12,000 top line sales per consultant per year. Peanuts.

I absolutely love the product. I think you’ve got a great business plan and are very likely to make a lot of money. And for that reason, I’m out.

Yes. 100%
It is indeed an MLM
I reckon they've got one note on top of stacks of paper lol no one would have that much cash sitting in a studio

I find the old dragons so rude! The looks that she's getting straight away without even giving her a chance. They are so mean the two old dragons.
