Umer Ashraf opened his first iCafe in 2005 in Glasgow and plans on selling his business models as franchises, he needs £80,000 investment in return for a 30% equity stake in the business, will they give him a shot or will they grind his hopes into the ground?
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.

Who still needs Internet cafes? Surely everyone has broadband and 4G or 5G? I get that some people are in difficult financial positions and don’t - but they can use libraries, community/council facilities, charities, education resources etc? If you don’t have broadband or phone data for financial reasons then the last place you’d go is an Internet cafe given an hours use is probably as much as a months Internet (if you know where to look). Only reason I’d invest in a business like this is if I thought I could have expanded it rapidly and exited before people worked out that technology would make these places redundant.

Dyed haired Peter. What a most sensible thing Duncan spoke, absolutely perfect, and he clearly knew better than the others what to do. I would sell a new franchise at around £40.000 to bring in interested parties, and the more interested parties come on board the greater the income, rather than to go to high and attract few people.
@BigHalfSteps
@BigHalfSteps 2 жыл бұрын
Really smart, much wow. And then people who don't invest much don't give a flying F if the franchise does well or not and abandon it. There is something called "Sunk Cost Fallacy" which basically means the more investment you did bring in, the more you are inclined to stay. Like working 20 years in a company to get to the top. Like selling everything you have to be part of a franchise and then depending on the money flow by doing your 100% best as your life depends on it. Also you underestimate how many low flying flies exist there that like to scam a lot and have enough money to be part of a scheme. If one of your franchise is doing real bad, it will spread rumors for every other. I estimate around 75% of people out there not understanding the word franchise, and if they have one bad experience or hear about one bad experience, they won't come in any other located franchise anywhere.

And the franchise model is viable. If each shop makes 15k profit a year, and is paying a manager, a franchisee can put 40k down, finance 60k in house, and take home a managers salary +15k. It would be a small pay rise after loan repayments compared to being a manager, and after you'd repayed the loan you would have an asset and a 15k bump compared to what you would earn working for somebody else. It's not attractive as a "buy and employ somebody to run it" business, but very attractive for somebody who wants to work for themself.

Deborah, I'll tell you who is the manager with a good paying job, that'll pay 40.000-100.000 pounds for a franchise.. it's the manager who earns a good living, but got a semi-bored stay-at-home wife or daughter, who dream of owning a "quirk, but stylish" café...

@@TheJohnCooperShow you can still get them. The cheese and chive disappeared very early on. I haven’t seen the southern fried chicken flavour in at least a year or two but the T-bone steak flavour are very easy to find. Not as bubbly as they used to be. I miss Burton’s potato puffs, golden wonder bacon crunchy fries and KP Tubes, to name a few. I take my crisps very seriously - so hate Walkers because they’ve never created a decent snack. They are good at acquisitions and marketing. Their version of crunchy cheetos is a downright disgrace. They taste nothing like the American version.
