Duncan Scolded For Helping Entrepreneur Explain His Financials | Dragons' Den
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 чер 2020
- Award-winning Vineyard owner Geoff Bowen nearly sunk his chances of investment when he could not keep track of his figures in the Den but Duncan offered a helping hand. Geoff Bowen is seeking an investment of £60,000 in return for a 20% equity stake but after Duncan's kind act, will any Dragon see Geoff's potential?
An international sensation, Dragon's Den features entrepreneurs pitching for investment in the Den from our Dragons, five venture capitalists willing to invest their own money in exchange for equity.
#DragonsDen #PebblebedVineyards
R.I.P
An award-winning British vineyard owner who won the backing of Duncan Bannatyne on Dragons' Den has died just three months after being diagnosed with a brain tumour. Entrepreneur Geoff Bowen, 53, was the brains behind Pebblebed Vineyards, which became famous after he appeared on the hit show.11 Jan 2018
That's sad. RIP
Damn. A real shame. RIP
Very sad RIP 😢
What a shame, RIP
Damn thanks for that 😭
Duncan is the best dragon he is the most down to earth one on there and he wanted to help the guy you could see he was struggling with nerves. Duncan was just being a decent bloke.
@@adiands850 Pretty fair for him to take 40% considering the risk of this kind of long-term business model.
Well he is Scottish.
@@Hugh__Jass I guess everone know the proverb about Scottish
He's a top bloke Duncan
Deborah is just hot air.
This is edited for the TV. The man explained very rationally and Duncan understood like anybody else should have if they're sitting in a "dragon's" chair.
Deborah: "don't look at me as if I'M silly" THE MAN HAS TO BECAUSE SHE IS SILLY.
He's explained in an obvious manner and Deborah didn't get it.
I miss having Duncan on the show, he was so direct and helpful to the entrepreneurs.
yeah and taking 40%.
Thats the whole point of a dragon. You go into a den to get help.
But reading the title of the video, I doubt it 😂😂
@@sbaxter4207 you do realise you go to these guys to skyrocket your company?
You do realise when they get the investment they give 40% so the Entrepreneur has full control over the business itself what they have is an assurance that with their work they get paid back ; you could always give 40 pay off the investment and take 10% back gotta have your business cap on for excessive growth
@@sbaxter4207 well that's what gives the show legitimacy. If Duncan was just helping entrepreneurs, it would be called charity. It's a mutual transaction.
does Duncan get 40% of profits for as long as the company remains in operation? Or am i looking at this wrong?
Damn. Just googled the guy. Passed away 3 years ago from a brain tumour. Rest in peace x
Damn ..lif s short ..
Terrible to hear.
:(
That's very sad
:( it looks like his business took off as well
“A shaky pitch and the loss of a dragon. A disastrous start for any entrepreneur.”
I doubt the entrepreneur would’ve had any hope of gaining investment from that dragon who objected to alcohol for religious reasons..
Sadly this guy died at the age of 53. Rest in peace.
John_2084's builds who died??
@@adnanarif2878 This guy in the video... very sad...
John_2084's builds how do you know that?
@@attackonpieck2789 according to other comments (who also claim to have found it on google), who died from a brain tumor..
Duncan's a real civilian who got rich , unlike the others he has respect , loved how he handled Deborah
i have a feeling he doesn't like her much, judging from a couple of videos i've seen today, including saying he wouldn't be a partner with her on one pitch, but with another dragon instead- or is that misleading?
@@mizofan It is shown on Peter's Wikipedia Duncan has actually been in conflict with Peter.
2:31 - That is NOT a disasterous start. The dragon that went out right at the start, did so for religious reasons. That has NOTHING to do with if the product will be successful or not. Bad narration on the part of the show. That dragon opted out - as was his right - cos of religious reasons towards alcohol. That is not a 'Disasterous' start, it is one dragon opting out as alcohol is against that dragon's religion. The narrator script-writer needs to have a bit of a reality check.
@@VauxhallViva1975 I was thinking the exact same thing I was thinking. The dragon opted out because of religion.
@@mizofan I've always got the impression Duncan isn't mad on any of them deep down. He had a big argument with Theo one time over figures, he's had disagreements with Peter Jones, I saw a video years ago where he disagreed with James Kahn about something & there's this one & others with Deborah.
He's nobody's friend in the Den, he just wants the business and that's it.
Deborah really pissed me off when she started being arsey to Duncan.
He's so down to earth and helps anyone when he can. Legend, we miss you on the show.
Same on I'm a celeb??!!
@@Joshy2023 How can be be down to earth if he was on I'm A Celeb?
Debroah is more nice than Duncan.
@@TaxingIsThieving even on I'm a celeb he was very humble and down to earth
Deborah should go on big brother. I want to see her in that environment
I love Duncan. He’s like a teacher... as long as the numbers or there that’s all that matters. There’s nothing wrong with offering a hand to help someone communicate them.
Yes i do agree with you. He is gentlemen indeed. Love you Mr. Duncan, may God bless your soul and you get more blessings from heaven.
Haha i love at the end when he gives duncan a bottle hes like f**k all of you other dragons, here you go mate thanks for having my back
Hahaha this! I didn't notice it first time I watch the video .
I saw that too and laughed. Too funny 😂
I think its because he has 5 different bottles set there, with the same sparkling wine in each, but each one had a different Dragons name on it, and whichever Dragon scored the deal, they got their respective bottle to commemorate the occasion.
Deborah was basically handed her business from her parents .....Duncan was an ice cream man who saved up his earnings and bought his own van ....saved up again and bought another van and so on.
I think we can respect people, but not push others down while doing that. Deborah must have some brains and brawn to take this business you said was handed down to her and make it what it is today. Not underestimating Duncan’s quick grasp. It seemed like trying to get my son to explain how he arrived at a math solution, I know the answer is correct, but I want to know how, that’s how the interaction with Deborah went.
@@newt1834 Deborah only needs to learns to solve problems.
Duncan experienced the problems to solve it.
@@zucramtesorero8291 So true. Love Duncan
@@newt1834 people require help, education and support. The attitude Duncan had Vs the "Oh stop helping him, you are not going to help him" attitude Deborah displayed. It's repulsive. She was handed a business. Without anyone saying, stop don't help her.
It's essentially this behaviour and mindset that just doesn't sit right with me.
Pay it forward (the good)
The world will flourish.
@Ethan James Ofc it's the entrepreneur's mistake.
Lack of Basic information, sure.
No disagreements there.
"If he had errors in his calculations, he shouldn't have opened the business"?
What. There are Tonnes of Millionaires who started out without that knowledge.
Anyway, that's another topic.
But here,
The question is, when you're blessed with a good life, shouldn't you at least be a bit helpful to others?
Of course this is Dragon's Den. And it is harsh.
But the character of each individual reflects in ways they deal with the entrepreneurs.
Just the difference in attitude between Duncan and Deborah is what I was pointing out.
Deborah's that one math teacher who singles you out to answer a question and, even though she knows you don't know it, will make you answer it somehow and keep embarrassing you
An absolute Intimidator.
Oh my gosh absolutely!!
And what they don’t get is that this the reason some kids end up hating maths.
I had one just like this! They do it on purpose.
Someone had a traumatic childhood with their maths teacher🤣
The smile on Duncan's face when he knows he got it in the bag is priceless
This just proved that Duncan is better at running the numbers in his head than the other dragons
Best comment!
Duncan is my boi
@Cee Dub619cameraman woman have smaller brains bless them
He's got a pen and notepad mate.
Deborah is only good at reading documents. And gets angry too easily . Not a good mentor, she takes offence to everythin and is ready to scold like a teacher. Not a good business partner, not easy to work with.
Duncan truly is admirable, he went from buying an ice cream van for £450, to selling that ice cream business for £28,000 to creating a nursing home with the profits and then selling that for £26,000,000..
Now that’s what you call starting from the bottom.
Lots of rich people say they come from nothing, but Duncan is truly one who worked hard for his financial success. He has a strong character and can understand those who are struggling. Easily the best Dragon
One of the nicest entrepreneurs I have seen in dragon's den
Rest in peace.
@@anubusx Yeah, makes me really sad.
That act of kindness was a little investment perhaps :9
After Duncan explains it, deborah yells "you never said that!" But he literally did and everyone yelled at him saying he can't do that. That's why the dude was frazzled
I was confused
They were bang out of order! Shoe was demanding he explain it better, when he was thinking do u need me to repeat myself?
Such a nice gesture from Duncan. This guy is a farmer, not a speaker and Duncan stepped up. This is a great deal for both of them.
Deborah: I don't get it.
Duncan: Boom. Two plus two is four. Minus one, that's three, quick maths.
Underrated comment, algorithm gang here
Underrated yes!!
I would pay good money to watch Duncan sing/rap that song.
Frisbee
Twix
Duncan always gets it when everyone else doesn’t 😂😂😂
ya its happened a few times throughout the show
Duncan's a simple man. He sees a pint.. or anything that resembles one, he's interested to invest.
@karrr1573 You can always rely on people getting high...
This isn't the first time I've seen Duncan clear up a confusion regarding the numbers. He sure is attentive and savvy when it comes to the figures.
deborah nearly wet herself when duncan mde his offer.
that's very sad to hear, he seemed like a genuinely nice guy.
In fact in this case I hope she did. Had to dry her chair with kitchen roll.
Uhuhuuuu that's funny duuuuuude .... not.
So no one's gonna talk about Theo's whistle technique?????
Right! he didn't even move his mouth lol
Maybe his hand was making the noises ........... Or perhaps something only very rich people can do! A skill you can unlock at 100 million
@@vileguile4 I cant even whistle normally, that's how poor I am
What’s that
whistling with the roof of your mouth is easy, whats wrong with you people
Duncan is hilarious, but kind. It’s easy for the people entering the Den to make mistakes and numbers and the dragons love to rip into them for TV.
Like you're mom
@@EXXTSON *your
Im sorry but if someones askin u for 10s of thousands of pounds to invest in them are you not gonna want them to know exactly what they're talking about? Or would you just frivolously throw the money in on the strength of some unconfident explanation?
Uuuyyuuyuuyuyyuyyyuuúuyyú
Yeah, I don't get why she refused an explanation from Duncan either... If he understood it and they didn't get the investors pitch, why refuse the explanation from Dunkan? I thought they invested in a business, not int a pitch. xD
No Duncan, seriously Duncan, don’t show him yr numbers, I’m not investing unless Jeff gives me his numbers.. 250k income - 144k expenses returns - 60k with 40% equity on the land...Duncan’s a bad ass.
@ChiefShittingBull 😁love it!
I love Duncan in this one. I don't even remember what I was going to comment about Peter. This was great❤😃
I agree, Duncan took a punt on a deal with minimal risk, and as the kids today would say, Duncan's a baller! lol
He's not American. He's a bad arse.
@@TOM-C. Yep, he understands there is NO risk because even if it goes totally wrong they still have all the land, which increases in value year on year without doing anything!
_"No Duncan, I'm not investing in you."_
Oh Debra, you should. He's a successful multi-millionaire who clearly understands financial numbers better than you do. *LOL !*
The numbers didn't make sense though. The guy literally said they would only get £7k return. It was only after Deb put him in hot water that he went along with Duncan's idea of returning the whole £60k to the investors.
@@CLBellamey That's because she is confusing the details of 2 different investment - the 'investors' into the vineyard experience for 10 years (like you or me); the investor in the business (like dragons). If WE invest we pay £9.5k and get a return of £7k in the first year (from existing vineyards), 600 bottles of wine over 10 years, and bragging rights and the 'dream' of owning part of a vineyard, activities etc at the vineyard if we want to visit. The guarantee on that return is that the land is already owned. SHE, as a dragon investing in the business and gets a percentage share of the entire business. For 9 years of every 10 paid for by 'investors in the experience' (like you and me) the profit goes to the company.
They can't sell what they don't have. They must sell land that is cultivated to make sure there is profit in year 1 for those 'buying the experience'. He wants to expand and sell more, but it took 7 years to get to this award-winning stage and it will take time to grow more (literally).
A similar comparison is a 10 year gym membership versus a percentage share in a gym. She mixed them by asking what you get for a £9.5k investment then assuming she would get likewise. Someone buying a 'vineyard experience' for 10 years is NOT the same as someone buying a percentage share of the entire company.
Jessica Taylor No, you misunderstood, watch the video again. The people giving him £9.5k for the experience are getting 600 bottles over 10 years, and the opportunity to visit anytime they like. They do not get a return on their money. Just to demonstrate how ridiculous the numbers you suggested are, if they got a £7k return on £9.5k that would mean they have effectively only paid £2.5k, and on top of that they get ~£12k worth of personalised champagne, all while not having to lift a finger as the entrepreneur works for 10 years. Also, that would mean the company effectively takes in £50k every 10 years, which isn’t enough to buy the land they are using let alone pay the shareholders.
Yes that's how I'm understanding it as well, the £7K is 20% of the net profit of £35K in year 1. Duncan got a really nice deal there - his £60K back plus £7K in year 1 plus 40% of the business basically for nothing. I think the guy should have negotiated a lot harder he has just handed over 40% of his business for nothing.
GregDeman Yeah, I wonder why he didn’t just get a mortgage to buy the new plot of land.
First time I've seen a dragon jump out the chair to save someone
I like how she's mad at him for having obvious anxiety. Can people with mental health issues, or just occasional anxiety not be entrepreneurs?
I concur but she was understandably upset. How could you invest in something that isn't properly stated?
Yeah he obviously suffered from stutters and he died from a brain tumor not long after... Probably had something to do with it, rest in peace bro 🙏 Definitely earned my respect
The question should be about Deborah. Can she work with this person? The answer is no, so he has to work with someone else. Deborah can't work with him, not he can't work with everyone.
She reminds me of so many stuck up job interviewers
Quit, stay home. Don't go on a show called 'Dragons den' if you can't handle pressure
Duncan was always the best, quick to call out someone who is a clown, but equally quick to back a decent opportunity/person
Duncan is a broski 💪🏼 stand up guy
Debra getting angry to cover up the fact that she didn't understand.
her ;laugh is horrific
She's right that it shouldn't be up to Duncan to explain the man's plan. And he didn't explain his system at all, before Duncan did it for him. I'd be miffed too.
@@Argumemnon To be fair, the dude was wrestling with mad nerves, it took him almost a minute and a half to stumble out the initial pitch. Try going up there infront of 5 multimillionaires and sell a product to invest in and keep your nerves at the same time, see how you'd fare.
@@AndrevusWhitetail 'it took him almost a minute and a half to stumble out the initial pitch' lol no it didn't, the editing made it out to be much worse than it actually was, they've done this a lot throughout the years, classic dragon's den technique of making people look like complete idiots.
The numbers didn't make sense though. The guy literally said they would only get £7k return. It was only after Deb put him in hot water that he went along with Duncan's idea of returning the whole £60k to the investors.
Why did Deborah do all that huffing and puffing when she was never going to invest anyway?
She's a woman. They have to make a fuss about something 🤣
Maybe she didn't like the taste of the wine 😂
She’s a witch
Its there real face! Bitterd and arrogant
Her ego and insecurities are pretty common among monied individuals that feel the need to feel a sense of high ground over others.
He was quite the boss on the exit, giving Duncan a bottle and bypassing the others. Sad that he didn't live long to enjoy his success. RIP Geoff.
I'm sure he was successful enough to own a vineyard in the first place
I realize Duncan has this helpful traits in him which will always be there for the pitchers like this guy, whenever he spotted someone having some kind of diffculty expressing with the right words, he will cut in and help... he did these a few times already, helping a few contestants.... he is a very sympathetic person with great empathy...
Duncan sticking up for the entrepreneur we love to see it.
Duncan is the only one with an oz of empathy you could tell from the second he walked in he was frozen with fear and nervous as hell he couldn't even start speaking for a minute it's hard and intimating for some people speaking in front of people and knowing he's being recorded my hat off to Duncan for trying to give him help and investing in him you can tell Duncan still remembers his roots nothing was given to him he earned his money and I think doesn't just care about money sometimes he tries to help some people get ahead in life like him good man in my eyes
When I am feeling low, I always watch Duncan's invests, specially this one is a gem. It gives me positivity and reminds me that there are people like Duncan who are pure gem and kind.
Be like Duncan Bannatyne! ❤️
Duncan is a good man he kept his calm and wasnt rude 2 the other dragons like they were. And I just lost respect 4 Deborah.
how did you have any respect for deborah to lose?
Eh, Deborah had a point “At no point did you say what Duncan just said.”
This may be one of those times we say nobody's perfect
@@fox2569 he was trying to explain and she cut him off. Clearly he said enough for Duncan to understand and he was trying to clarify for everyone else
Vanilleu someone would have to be very successful to not have some respect for the Dragons.
It’s sometimes hard to remember that Duncan isn’t just a handsome face and a charming guy. He did the math and increased his equity stake double while everyone else quartered over the pennies of owning a bespoke vineyard and land. I bet he can already see using this guy’s vinery business and expertise to grow his license alcohol business
Duncan Bannatyne is a legend, I love how helpful he is regardless of what the others think. We need more people like him in this World!
Duncan is my favorite Dragon. 100%
I would love to go drinking with him.
RIP liver. But yeah, he seems to be a decent bloke.
Drunkan
I don't drink but sure he would have been a delightful company. Seems a nice person.
Duncan is a class act, worth reading his books if you haven't already. The guy started with nothing pure rags to riches.
Class from Duncan. My uncle was mates with him when he lived over in Jersey in the 70s. Top guy who came from nothing and made his pile through sheer hard work and determination 👍👍
How tf does Theo whistle without moving his mouth like that
Well it magic obviously duh 🙄
Greek magic
It's coming out rectally, it's called being a tight arse.
Its because of having crooked teeth and using your tongue to move air very quickly. Only my bottom row of teeth had grew a little strange, 1 part of tooth overlapping the other (the very 2 front bottoms) and because of that I can also whistle in this manner, but I can't do a 'normal' whistle to save my life.

It’s so sad that Geoff passed away from a Brain tumour in 2018. He was only 53. RIP
@Disruptive Bee the show was in 2011. He died of a glioblastoma which is normally pretty swift and rapid growing so I'd doubt he had developed it as far back as 2011.. Very sad though.

Comments section On other videos: Deborah is the nicest dragon. Therefore she is the best
Videos like these: Debrorah is clearly the meanest dragon here. Duncan is the nicest.
Deborah wasn't always the nicest dragon! She was brutal in this series!
I usually love Deborah but this episode she was a b!tch 🤣 I still love her, but she was brutal and he didn't even seem to deserve it!
deborah likes to bully and demean timid, inexperienced male entrepeneurs, which is why duncan had the right approach not caring about the sewage spewing out of her mouth
@@bieberninja1 does she? i thought this was a onetime thing
@@Moon222 there was another guy who had a disinfecting machine and she fleeced him, i think she took 40% to 50% of the company and the guy was literally begging for her to come down on the percentage and she drove her claws and fangs into him even more, he needed the investment and i guess her expertise so he gave in, but there are others as well but this would be a comment with 1,000,000 characters if i sat her outlining all the times she was a rude skank to everyone who came in, especially timid men with no business experience
Actually I never thought Deborah was nice. I've only ever thought she was mean.
Btw despite everyone saying Jenny is bad I think she's better than Deborah. Jenny isnt bad she's just meme material.
Jenny wished so bad, she was here for the free alcoholic sample.
Sadly once out from the Den you can't get in. That was a poor miscalculation from her.
Sadly she was already out
Jenny considered becoming Muslim after realising she could go out immediately sometimes
RIP to Geoff Bowen.
".... It has now grown to be the largest commercial vineyard in the South West covering 25 acres, producing white red and rose wines as well as sparkling varieties. Upwards of 40,000 bottles are produced there a year." - The Sun, UK

Duncan is and always will be the best dragon.
Duncan scolded? No, Duncan just sticking up for the wine chap and putting bullying Deborah in her place.
Easily the best set of dragons!
Without Touker? Surely not :P
@ja ka James Caan sits there: Oy, I don't drink!"😆
Replace James Caan with Touker and then we're good.
@ja ka James Caan won't invest in alcohol because it's immoral but will try to buy a baby because that's apparently more acceptable than a glass of wine!
James caan was a legend. On so many pitches he actually got what the pitch was about. Such as thermaskirt. None of the dragons got that one. They were like (to the pitcher) you have enough money therefore you dont need mine. It was james that understood that he needs the expertise but james isn't in construction so couldn't help.
Alot of the dragons come across as arrogant. Plus James was the one with the clever deals. He thought outside the box. Put Peter to shame. In the recent series its Peter who has taken a page out of James's book by doing unconventional deals.
Duncan yet again showing how amazing he is at understanding the numbers. Like the lady that Peter joked about saying "55k" for everything but Duncan fully understood what she meant and explained it perfectly
which lady was that?

RIP Geoff. Happy you got the investment from Duncan and were able to see your business become a success.
Well done Duncan. Rest of them needed to patiently understand it instead of being stroppy.
So so sad this entrepreneur Geoff has died, hope his business flourishes 💖
This is why I love Duncan! Not afraid to go against the grain
Rest In Peace Geoff Bowen. ❤️🕊🙏
10:07 how the hell does Theo make that noise? :-D
I came here to comment that! He’s whistling with his mouth wide open 😆
His teeth are shaped like the top of bottles. Obviously.
Probably edited.

Whistling foetus
"A shaky start and the loss of a dragon" Yes, his pitch was so bad that he couldn't have alcohol for religious reasons.
Lunch break doesn't begin until the new Dragon's Den video is released.
I love Duncan. He walks up to help him haha. What a legend.
I love how James Caan declared himself out for religious reasons and then the guy still tried to serve him the alcohol 😂
It was edited to seem that way.
Duncan was handsdown the best dragon to ever be on this show.
One of the things I love about Duncan is that he never seems to be anything more than honest and curt. He never postures about his time being wasted (it really ticks me off when Peter, Theo, Deborah, et al. start puffing their feathers at being 'insulted' by the entrepreneur). Yes, Duncan wants as big a bite as he can get, but he doesn't neg the product or the person the way Peter does in order to have the business all to himself and thus take a bigger chunk. Also, he makes my daughters laugh. They won't tolerate an episode without him. :D
I’ve seen quite a few of them on this show get lost for words or nervous.
It must not be easy presenting in front of them.
I was in Shark Tank last week. Cameras, Sharks, the atmosphere, the recording team.... the pressure is real. And the recording team want drama.
After reading and looking it up for myself that he died 3 months after this from a brain tumor. I could only imagine that played a part in him having that brain fart no pun intended, but I could be wrong.
☠OsirisTheGreatShaman☠ Someone said this aired quite a few years ago and the tumor he got developed extremely fast so it wouldn’t have been around this time. I thought the same as you, though, you’d assume that right?
Rest in peace geoff, you did a amazing job with your pitch and its sad to hear that you passed
Duncan is so cool. And how wonderful he got Duncans investment too.
R.I.P to this guy! And Duncan is and always will be a legend 🏴🙌
“At no point have you said what Duncan said!”
How did Duncan know it then? Telekinesis?
More likely telepathy.
Because Duncan built up from nothing and understands business completely. The others are a silver spoon merchants
Duncan is probably the most unique dragon to be on the show, either him or toucker lol. Also I feel like Deborah was more tense in the earlier days, I think she is more relaxed and helpful now
Shes even worse in her first season. Came across completely nasty
Duncan was such a chad, he saw clearly even tho the Entrepreneur was very nervous and even offered his expertise to assist him in explaining it
Duncan is the real gem of Dragon's Den which makes me admire and learn from his personality. I really hope he will return in the future!
James Caan declaring himself out early because he won’t invest in alcohol.
Love it. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I like Duncan, he's a genuinely good person who doesn't like seeing people fail. There's one guy one the Australian shark tank who has the same vibe as Duncan and you can tell they really want people to do great things and thats what we need more of in this world.
I loved the early series 1&2 when they didn’t edit out extreme nerves and anxiety - it was more realistic by miles.
I think a lot of the times they made it look a lot worse than it was though
Lmao the irony of this comment, the editing actually made it out to be a lot worse than it was *especially* in the early episodes 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️look at all the close up shots - that's to drag it out and make it seem like it was a much longer silence than it was in order to make the pitchers look like complete idiots for your entertainment. Nothing realistic about it lol.
@@SiLoMixMaster How can they make it look worse unless they've put it in slow motion?
@@TaxingIsThieving very simple: Take shot one, hold it right until halfway through the pauze, take a shot of a dragon for 3 seconds (tension created by the continuous background music), switch back to the entrepreneur....
Even though Geoff passed, it seems like whoever's running the company now has gotten things back on track. Website is up to date and the Facebook page is still posting regularly. Maybe Bannatyne is still helping move things forward.
Duncan is a real one, I appreciate what he did 😂
Not sure if "the loss of a dragon" really contributed to a "shakey start", since he would've been out anyway
If someone has a good product, plan, numbers and articulate answers, I wouldn't hold a case of stage fright too much against said person. I mean, that's something that can be overcome.
Exactly...
If it's a salesperson audition I'd get it.
