Flat Broke Entrepreneur Orders Shipment Worth £100K | Dragons’ Den

Half assed, no organisation, no grounding in reality, no planning, bad decision making. One of the worst pitches of all time. That I've never seen before. Thank you for uploading!

She's a millionaire now tho

[@darkaquatus]

So let me get this straight. She came up with a not very impressive idea, then made a mediocre design and ordered 180.000 units of 'em with no idea how to pay for it. She somehow managed to spend 15k during this time (no idea where the money went) without even having something like a warehouse to run her operations from. She hasn't done any market research, she hasn't done any branding, marketing, or selling, all while she's on government hand-outs? And to make things even worse, she crumbles at the slightest bit of critique and starts crying. Come on now, she must be one of the least investible people I've ever seen.

Typical entitled mombie. "I have kids, feel sorry for me and give me money! I deserve it more than everyone else because _baaaaiiibiiieeees!"_

[@alfiemitchell3026]

Oh dear, when she was saying what she thought the dragons were thinking to them - “‘you’ve got this amazing idea but we have to do all the work’, no you don’t! I just need... a break.” That sounds so David Brent-like

[@friskjidjidoglu7415]

It’s bizarre to me that she wants to spend more time with her son yet is pursuing another venture, but it is one that is less profitable and risky to looking just straight gimmicky. The underwear don’t even look good. Like for children, they don’t even have animal prints or anything

[@afrochip]

‘would you buy my pants’ avoids question completely 😂😂

[@Jester-Riddle]

She'll make a great Politician … Big promises, but no money to pay for them.

[@magusxxx]

It's like the joke where Columbus is the original Republican. - Went not knowing where he was actually going, ended up not where he wanted to be, and did it all on public money he had no intention of paying back.

"I think I've got a lot more than you realise" 180,000 pairs of crap, tacky underwear rotting in the back garden (and the debt for these unpaid assets) and £70 per week on the JSA. Yeah.

Lol Doug asked her an extremely soft question in which if she was a man he would have been more aggressive, and she still broke down.

The sharp “what am I lacking?” And “why?” are both quite telling

Horror Top 8s you should come to Australia, people literally lining up at shops at 6am and clear out the fully stocked toilet roll cabinet within 7 minutes

I seriously hope the Indian manufacturer will demand at least a small percentage up front, because then the deal will fall through, which is about the only hope, Rachel has left. But like she said: otherwise the country will just pay her way.

[@DaviesD85]

Another issue, not dealt with here, is the personalisation. I assume the names are stitched on by the manufacturer in India. So if she's ordered 180,000 units, what names has she picked out and how many of each name has she ordered? My name was kind of common in the UK in the mid 80s to mid 90s, but I very, very, rarely see anything that is already personalised and on the shelf with my name on in places like Clinton's, W H Smith's or T J Hughes, these days. I have to go to Studio or eBay to get my name personalised on items.

[@Sherpiddy]

“Would you buy my pants?” Silence from Evan 😂😂

[@Gabriel-el8ku]

I must admit that blame here is on the production. they brought her knowing it will look like that just for the ratings regardless of how this might effect her.

[@MatthewLenton]

She'd ordered 180,000 but how did she decide what names and how many of each one

[@Goaway587]

So you should be getting out there and trying to sell your product right? Claire: very true! So what have you been doing to do that? Claire: 👁👄👁

[@liddybug8311]

She cried because she didn't want to answer. Notice how fast she recovered when he moved on from the selling question.

[@mrlasttimer]

She is the female David Brent ' I know what you're thinking Great product, great idea, but we're going have to carry this girl'

[@randallbatson]

She gave so much effort in the endgame, with no focus on the day to day. She should have bought 5000 units, and tested the market with no labels, and then in the last 1000 units start personalizing.

[@haydencooper_]

You get people that have an answer for everything, then people like her with no answers for anything.

[@yoghourt8375]

She used to be my neighbour a couple years ago, i can say confidently that her horrible attitude hasn’t changed a bit, even from the recent updates i’ve gotten.

[@WobblesandBean]

You can't say that without giving us some stories.

[@Seventeen_Seconds]

Literally looked like she was gonna burst in to tears everything someone asked a question.

[@moffboffjoe]

Amazingly her company is still going today, you can find out their accounts on the gov company search website as SMARTY PANTS LTD, specifically the one based in nottingham

[@WobblesandBean]

Sort of. She's certainly not doing well for herself, she's got an outstanding balance and her website is atrocious. She doesn't even sell underwear anymore, just cringey, bottom of the barrel generic holiday-themed dreck you'd find at any tourist gift shop.

[@harrytaylor5311]

To be fair to her, she’s got multiple top 10 best selling items on Amazon and the business is growing at a quick rate.
