[@khalid-aaa]

Leon Njuguna what does 5% royalty mean ?

[@kibzzinho2240]

@@khalid-aaa For every single device the company sells he gets 5% of the selling price. So that $1.9million dollar order...he'll get $95 000 in royalties. The next order...another $95 000. But now, he doesn't have to worry about sales or marketing or manufacturing. Steve does ALL OF THAT since he owns the company 100% So if Steve starts selling the devices in the millions worldwide, he gets 5% of each device sold. That $95 000 can become $950 000 can become $9 500 000, depending on how much Steve Sells

[@bencsmith]

No, I think you misunderstood what occurred. He was offering them a company in which has to license the IP to himself. Owning your own IP is always advantageous to licensing it. With that being said, the real problem occurs in the fact that he is taking 5% off of the company's top-line revenue. There three main reasons why that is a problem. For starters, 5% in the early stages of the company could bleed it for cash. Early companies like his usually have a very short runway, meaning that 5% could very well be the difference between life or death. Secondly, he would be getting a much better deal than them. The Sharks would be more concerned about performance, wherein he would not as he is taking 5% off of the top-line regardless of performance. Lastly, he dictates the licensing fee, which could be the biggest problem yet. In fact, he even stated in the video "at this point, to start off, it's 5%", which indicates that he has considered changing it. He could decide that he wants to renegotiate that licensing agreement to take 50% or 100% and the board would either be left with no patent or no revenue. Nevertheless, it's a very dangerous and sneaky deal that any investor really wouldn't want to be a part of.

[@porridgeman]

Ben Smith depends on how solid the patent is. You could steal the source code, change a few lines and kick the parent company aside. Depends on how ruthless they want to be. But honestly, buckle me up isn’t worth the investment without the IP. The only saving grace is the 1.9million order at the moment which the company could be doing at a loss for all we know

[@boyeyob1]

Basically all the sharks....I'm out because the guy pitching has a smart sense of business and can't get ripped off

[@porridgeman]

ebonyboye he’s trying to rip them off, not the other way around. His pitch was centred around a patent, which if they would have zero percent of. The company they’re investing in is a shell company with basically zero assets and practically worthless if not for the $1.9 million order that has yet to be fulfilled. The parent company could renegotiate for 15, 20% if there were no documents in place currently about the exclusive rights. Heck, he could screw them over and create another shell company, go to the us shark tank to do the same pitch with a company called buckle me down.

Horrible assessment of his business. This guy was smart and completely honest when asked questions. These "sharks" got triggered because they knew they were dealing with someone they couldn't take to the cleaners. He has a vested interest in seeing the company succeed for two reasons: 1). He's still would own 90% of the manufacturing company. 2). He owns 100% of the company that owns the patent and is due to receive the royalty. Do they understand how costly and time-consuming it is to get a worldwide patent?

For those that don’t get why the sharks are hesitant: with it being a licensed patent; there’s nothing stoping the parent company from pulling the license and selling it to another company for more value down the line. The inventor went into there for money to get his numbers up (more money = more manufacturing/ sales = more of a household name). Once a item becomes a household name he could pull the patent from the child company with the royalty investments and put it into another company that all profits go to him. The child company would have no right to use the patent then which means no money for the sharks, but the inventor would still be making money off the patents.

@@umyes4944 but he told them! If they wouldve made a deal then later discovered that would be omission. Honestly, this whole thing was a joke. Offering him 1.5 for 100% when the guy already put 2 million in, now that's disrespectful. I wouldnt want to be any of their partners

OMG this could be so good for preventing hot car deaths too with a simple coding change. If he could retrofit it for carseats, he could update the app to alert when the smartphone leaves the vicinity of a buckled carseat.

The Mazda CX9 Touring and higher trims has this feature built in to the vehicle for all of the seats. The seatbelt icons display just below the climate control dials.

Nice idea. I think instead of being able to visually or audibly hear a warning you shouldn’t need an app. It should function as if it’s blended in to its environment. I would say a wireless mic or light as an indicator that you can just control in the app
