This should be a 30 dollar max product. Then it could be like a fun little Father's Day present or something. For 299 you can buy a tablet. Price makes no sense.

I hang a large note on my doorknob to notify family members of a meeting or anything. Like how you would alert hotel staff to clean your room. It's easy, cost me nothing, and solves the problem. Not sure how valuable this product is, but i hope they do well.
But that would not be so feasible when you have some gaps between your meetings, I personally wouldn’t want to wake up every time to change that sign. While the idea of changing the sign via an mobile app is cool, the price is ridiculous..
299 is super, super high. I would say a 25$ basic one-message box is perfect, a 50$ "display anything" would be pretty okay. 300 for a little screen that can do one thing is ridiculous.
It's hard to believe people have actually paid $299 for it. *Fun fact about Shark Tank* According to USA Today, "Shark Tank," receives 35,000-40,000 applicants each season. Of these, only 1,000 advances to the next round, and in most seasons, only 88 contestants will appear on the show. I was curious to know how hard it was for people to pitch their idea on the show. Have a great day, and stay safe. XO
We have thousands of customers at $299, the Digital is not a meant to be an "made for everyone" product, and our $59 and $129 models sell well. We got a great boost from ST and we are grateful for the boost. As Mark Cuban has said in numerous interviews, we're in the room for a LOT longer than what makes the air/edits. The editors have some tough choices to make in the interest of time. Overall, we had a GREAT experience but the edits don't tell the full story or conversation.
Great presentation. They had the margins to offer Kevin a royalty deal where he gets 2x his money and a certain %. He would be great on a commercial with them 2.
Thanks for the kind words. We worked on it for months. Kevin was highly engaged, and as they showed in the edits, he said (more than once), "I think you're onto something." We wish they had put that full conversation on the show, but the editors have a lot of tough choices to make to take a llllooooooong conversation and make it come together in under 6 minutes. I would not want that job. That's hard work. Poor Conor spoke a lot and they edited him out completely. 😞 It's all good. We had a blast and business is booming.
Ever heard of a digital picture frame? Why couldn't I just hang a digital picture frame outside of my door, wirelessly upload a photo to it of what I want to say - closed, open, busy, come in, etc., and use that as exactly the same thing? Their product already exists, basically.
I have an LED on-air sign at the top of the stairs. I built a smart home routine that switches it on and switches it off. The whole thing was about $20, and I have been using it since the pandemic started.
I’m an animator and I work from home and I get knocks on the door or family calling my name, and I’ve even thought about the “on air” device…but $299 get out a cardboard “busy sign” works the same
what office would spend 300 dollars on it though? sure it serves a function, like the "live recording" light has been in use for decades now, it's not new, it's a small bluetooth light
Or a placard with a sliding cover on the door that allows you to have "Do Not Disturb" showing or covered. That's what my office has. Takes 2 seconds, no power source needed & works very well. I'm not sure of the cost but I'm sure it's way less than $299.
It could be usefull however, it's too expensive and in our house, my wife works at home as do I. After a few days everyone knows our schedule and knows if the office door is shut you don't knock or yell as they did in the presentation
I'd just hang and open/closed sign on the door and communicate with family members to let them know not to come in when the sign says "closed". Works the same as a light up "busy" sign
I go on live calls all day and this would potentially be something I would use, but not for that much. It would also be really neat if there was a way for it to change automatically every time I am on a call so I wouldn't have to change it back and forth each time.
Yeah, we were in the room a LONG time and had some good traction, but in the end, we didn't convince the sharks we had a product they wanted to invest in. "Ring"s a bell, doesn't it? ;o)
@BusyBox a simple message to whoever is in the house that you're in a meeting or busy when the door is closed is all you need. Why 300$? That's legit insane. If your housemates or family can't respect a quiet space or a work zone, that's more on your family imo. Tape a paper to the door with sharpie if need be. Such a headache you guys created for yourselves. Sure it got sales, and might still be doing so, but thats a lot of extra paperwork that, a simple paper can solve
For $300, you can buy a really good lock and have someone install it and plus hang a small sign on the door that says do not disturb with RGB lights. All within $300 budget
They need to make the app be able to (with your permission obv) automatically detect when you have Zoom or a website of your choice open and change your sign to Busy or whatever else you want.
@Dion Diova - A lot of times when you're on a zoom call, you're quiet and just hearing other people talk. Often over your headphones. There's also your work e-mail, word processor, or other programs that don't make noise that the app could detect and then automatically switch your sign to Busy when you have them open.
Those good old open and closed signs that hang in shop doors are still around and would be the cheap alternative to this product or you could make something simple with paper, pen & blue tack. You could close the door when in a meeting and leave it open when your not instead of spending $200 lol To me the 2nd model is a small screen version of those huge TV like displays you see at game stadiums. This is also very similar to the screen McDonald's have to show your ticket number to pick up your order when it's ready. Found it was still in business in Dec 2022 but there have been replica's who are in competition with Busy Box now.
Schools do buy the Digital model ($299) and the $129 model quite a bit. They like the lifetime warranty and free for life software and security updates.
Yeah, the edits were weird since they had to cut it down a lot. We have a $59 model, a $129 model, a $149 model and a $299 model. Oddly enough, the $299 model is our best seller. Clearly not a product for the Sharks, but 25~45 year old people love both the $129 and $299 models the most, 3:4 ratio.
Good innovation but have to think where I can tag to the door like "honey moon couple we are busy". 😅 jokes apart cost should be somewhere around 10 to 20 dollars to reach more customers. I am sure it is possible as you might had observed the Exit or entry buttons at movie theaters or office locations .
at $299 it is a corporate purchase for wfh employees. I have seen how much corporations spend without thought, so I understand why their sales are that way.
Some company already developed these, but in a tremendously cheaper price. They’re called a plastic Do Not Disturb tag you hang on a doorknob. I’ve seen tons of these used in hotels all the time 🤯
I bet you their cost is $10 per unit. High margins many times kill a business. There must be some type of relationship between those 2, they looked very similar.
I like it. But not for $300. I think it'd be great if you could add a widget to the app and it's on the lock screen and you can press 'busy' or 'not busy' really quickly rather than having to unlock, find the app and then wait for it to load and then find the 'not busy' option.
It is just a display hub. I've seen some sold for gaming PC's or just decorative electronics for your home. Things like this should NOT cost more than maybe $50 at most.
Would be good for teacher's doors, doctors, lawyers, etc...not just an at home product, make it $99. Sell in bulk to school districts., hospitals, etc. No hard wiring is the key.
i believe what they should of did was make it $30 and charge a subscription for small amount like a few dollars besides home offices could see this being a big use , in workshape space , garage space maybe even uber ? cause the digital part
My Daughter works from home. If she or I have a question, I just text, when she gets a moment, she responds. If her lunch is running late, she texts to let me know, no sign needed!
You can also tell your husband or wife or anyone else at home, that you'll be in a meeting and not to be distracted..You know it's called communication...
It does. And we did discuss it with them but that didn't make the edits. The software (and constant upkeep of the software) is what drives the price. Like an iPhone, the hardware is such a small part of the selling price.
I’d buy one but most I’d pay is $25 on the low end, $up to 45 on the higher end. I’m constantly being bothered family while working in my room from home, idk what their issue is they just barge in like I’m DOING SOMETHING HERE
There sell was that the other ones available on the market are for desk only. Um, I can easily hand those others ones up with some command strips. $299 is way over priced.
Those who don't understand the pricing don't understand the hardware. These most likely run off a Raspberry Pi based system or similar. Hardware + Labor = well over $200. Nobody anywhere is going to sell one of these for ~$20.
or you could just buy one of those 'i'm busy' signs that we get at hotels, from the dollar store, and hang it outside your door? and then flip it when you're done. you don't need a $299 product!
He said "I got too excited".😅 If you don't get too excited then you are definitely not a true entrepreneur 😊 OH how I miss my life. Keep grinding guys. And I would definitely buy one of these. Just a little too pricey though ❤
You can build your own and learn something. Raspberry PI and some old tech and you could make your own for about $120. And, you can do it with your kids!

I’d buy one but most I’d pay is $25 on the low end, $up to 45 on the higher end. I’m constantly being bothered family while working in my room from home, idk what their issue is they just barge in like I’m DOING SOMETHING HERE
Our pricing starts at $59 (see the website) if you don't want to connect it to your calendar.
There sell was that the other ones available on the market are for desk only. Um, I can easily hand those others ones up with some command strips. $299 is way over priced.
So why can’t we just put a post it note up that says don’t knock I’m on a call
They wild for walking in there for that price
You can find an old smartphone and mount it to your door for $30.
You can buy a whiteboard for $10.
A sticky note costs about a penny.
you could get a Divoom Lightbox Mini for $30-40 that does something similar
Isn’t this just a piece of paper, a pencil, and a piece of scotch tape?
I bought one. The battery life is pretty low. Really has to be plugged in. Looks good though.
The thing abt this is someone could easily use at home supplies like paper and tape saying their busy or wtvr
Those who don't understand the pricing don't understand the hardware. These most likely run off a Raspberry Pi based system or similar. Hardware + Labor = well over $200. Nobody anywhere is going to sell one of these for ~$20.
Price is very high. You can legit buy a decent quality tablet for that much.
For $299.00? I can grab a pen, one piece of paper, and a piece of tape and achieve the same thing.
How about just hanging a "Do not Disturb" sign ?
You know what works great? A sheet of paper with a small piece of tape.
or you could just buy one of those 'i'm busy' signs that we get at hotels, from the dollar store, and hang it outside your door?
and then flip it when you're done.
you don't need a $299 product!
How about just hanging a sign on the door that says do not disturb
This is like a 5 and below gimmick product. 299 is absolutely nuts
He said "I got too excited".😅 If you don't get too excited then you are definitely not a true entrepreneur 😊 OH how I miss my life. Keep grinding guys. And I would definitely buy one of these. Just a little too pricey though ❤
I could provide a whole company with "do not disturb" doorknob signs for less than the price of one of these
Could be a fun novelty gift it was like $20-$30. But $300? Surprised they've sold any.
I love When They Said Shaaaaaaaarksssss
I hate it. Lol
@@jdxiong Gotta be entertaining (or try to) or you'll never make the air. ;o)
I purchased samsung s5e tab. With amoled screen and almost 4k resolution at 300$.
The mute button works wonders this device won’t go that far
What happened to just writing on a piece of paper and getting tape saying “I’m busy”
You can build your own and learn something. Raspberry PI and some old tech and you could make your own for about $120. And, you can do it with your kids!
Till this day we still have no idea where his partner came along or who that guy is… even was asked and he dodged the question. Any follow up with this? Thanks.
