      Here’s the trick… rolls switch when you’re at home. Lol. My husband doesn’t talk in public and my friends and family always tell me “you don’t know a stranger”. People initially say “you must talk his ear off at home” then they hear us on the phone and he is going on and on… when we’re home, he is the one who is talking all the time lol.

What impress me most is that Lori Greiner, who must've had a pretty deep off-screen back and forth with the girl, was willing to go with her flow, plus her "2.5% advisory share" offer is quite ingenious.

She’s secure in who she is and what she can offer and is not bothered when someone may be hesitant to accept. That is real confidence .

    This is one of the most impressive Shark Tank Episodes I've come across. She will make an amazing CEO one day. She didn't get what she wanted but she negotiated and knew her stuff. Yes the cup cakes are a tad expensive but its also about knowing your value. Things are cheaper because of cheaper ingredients. So many products on the shelf have sugar, corn and palm oil fillers.

So in the former deal the sharks and the entrepreneurs agree that the company is worth 833k, whereas in the latter deal they agree that the company is worth one million. It's an optics thing.

    Man, this should be a blueprint on how you do business on shark tank. I learned a lot just watching this. She had a great approach on how to handle deals

    Just finished 3. Theyre legit amazing. Been making my own pizza for almost a decade. Dude knew what he was doing in the kitchen. I hope nothing but the best for them. At 8.99 for 6 in a box, youre buying the quality at that point. And im willing to pay for that quality.

    Love the pizza mascot. That person was experienced and knew how to sell it even tho they hit the table. Yeah, that woman knew her numbers and was prepared. Glad they got a deal with Lori.

      a dog has guts to bite if someone attacks it. thats all she was doing, going off of her primal instincts.

    I know most here are talking about Michelle, but can we just take a moment to appreciate the guy too. He knows she's well prepared and skilled at negotiation and let her do her thing. These two are perfect for each other!

    I’ve picked them up from Stew Leonard’s and gave them a try, they were definitely better than I expected, good dough consistency too.
