Do you think Kevin's deal was greedy or fair?

[@Nonegiven14582]

Those guys were prize idiots for walking away Reggae sauce gave away a ton of equity and now he's a rich man?

[@Brian-hd4rb]

He had leverage by being the only shark that made an offer. The offer is fair. Either you take it or you don't.

[@gamingnguitar4527]

Totally agree. Especially when you consider Barbara's point that this has yet to be in the hands of consumers, so it's unknown what the response is, return rate ect. For a gamble on a new company his offer was very fair

[@Nich_B23]

Yeah I honestly think that was there chance to make the company take off. If they really valued the product that much, they’d be willing to give up a quarter of it just to guarantee you get it into the hands of consumers and quickly. The end goal would be to share it with the world

[@haralds4145]

What they dont understand is that giving the sharks a huge part is good, cause with 25% ownership he is willing to put in money in the company at nearly no interesr all the time if he see a good path. For examplenthe 200k certification when they figured out a good consumer product he will pay with no hesistation

[@Brian-hd4rb]

He had leverage by being the only shark that made an offer. The offer was fair in my opinion. Either you take it or you don't

[@KRINGEmusik]

Selling only 5 units and knowing the sharks provide more than just money, I’m sure they knew 5% wasn’t going to fly. The sharks would have to do so much work.

[@DocRealTalk]

Unlike the Sharks, most human beings actually place value on THEIR ideas and THEIR time and THEIR investment in getting patents.

[@PracticalPerry]

Agreed. They should have taken the deal, and/or, countered and asked for Kevin to take 20%, instead of 25%.

[@KRINGEmusik]

@@DocRealTalk but when you’re talking about “value” the business doesn’t have much of it, because it has 5 sales. All the money/time/ideas/patents into something that only generated 5 sales gives it a low value. Kevin wasn’t being unreasonable. I think they wanted the Shark Tank promo

Product will be blown out of the water by Apple Watch and other apps too.

[@Qusin111]

[@IGiveTheBestTakes]

They gave several clear reasons why they are currently not consumer based and a clear path and desire to become consumer based and all of the sharks advice was "why dont you go consumer based???"

They turned down a really good deal. They were just thinking of the initial investment. They weren't thinking about just how much Kevin could make their business grow.

[@shark_man_]

I am the only that realised that it’s absolutely uselss? It can’t track your performance when you use dumbells, barbells, kettlebells and cardio machines. It’s an overpriced scam. The invention is kinda cool, but anyone that buys will realise that they got scammed very fast.

[@RadhikaSharma-rj7bc]

One of the best products i have seen on shark tank!

[@wht2686]

I get it that consumers want it more, but you kinda need the gyms to approve of its use. After all, altering gym equipment is risky and can cause death and injuries. The device may not be compatible with all equipment. Honestly, they are better off doing a SaaS business for fitness trainers and gyms. They should partner with gym equipment manufacturers so that their technology can be integrated with the equipment safely, and that also provides a channel for global expansion. Secondly, that was such a low ball offer. They have a patent, 2 engineers and a lawyer. They can easily get 100k. And they didn't even need the manufacturing support provided. Well, they probably cut the video so much that a lot of information was lost to make the participants seem ignorant.

[@AryanMahipal]

Crazy valuation

[@philipspigelmeyer959]

I agree BUT that product is prolly amazing. If it does what there saying it does then that completely changes how you work out.

she actually had a good point this time. Which was that it hasn't had any sales yet. Not only that but we don't know how the consumers feel about it. Perfectly fair reasoning there

[@PaulDozierZZoMBiE13]

Why is the volume on this channel always so low? I can barely hear anything even with the volume turned all the way up.

[@aheadatime]

Because the owner(s) of this channel are most likely just running it for a bit of side $$, and don't pay attention to comments, likes, etc.
