“That Is the Biggest Load of Bull I’ve Heard In The Den” | Dragons’ Den

William delivers a confident and polished pitch to The Dragons, asking for £65,000 in exchange for a 10% stake in his "Clever Bin". It's a solar-powered street bin, complete with an alarm and GPS tracking, which he is aiming to sell to local authorities, but at that price, The Dragons wouldn't even advertise on it.
Season 7, Episode 4.
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.

Theo goes mad and loses his temper when they tell him that it isn't possible to open the bin from the inside. When asked why he's pursuing that line of questioning,Theo gets even angrier and more emotionally distressed when he explains that he didn't have a privileged upbringing and suggests that children can play horrible bin-related tricks on each other, seemingly alluding to a possible childhood experience of his own, in which other children may have locked him in a bin for some sort of practical joke.

Because the local council likely won't give him permission to put 1 bin out on a main street because it would look ridiculous by itself.

[@MissFoxification]

The advertising contract might be an issue. Advertising companies are not going to want a single location, they are going to want multiple locations which offer different levels of foot traffic and varying demographics. Alas, he could offer short term advertising, or even advertise the bins on the bins for a period until a significant number are on the street. Wanting to place one bin is going to seem a bit.. amateur. He also needs to arrange for it to be emptied and there is likely to be a minimum number of bins on a contract to make it economically viable.

[@felautumn9534]

@@rje613 Why would it look ridiculous? "oh did you see that fancy bin on the high street? it has ads on it" is as far as people would go. They would stop talking about it after 5minutes and if it had advertising, it would become as normal as a bus stop, something people aren't going to think too hard about. Your reason is make believe and pretentious.

[@rje613]

@@felautumn9534 Do you know what pretentious means, or are you just using words you've recently discovered? Your use is ironic though, I'll grant you that. It would look ridiculous, because it would look out of place. A bin covered in adverts and lights would look distinctly different to all the other bins. The majority of your comment is arguing against a point I never made. I never said that it would become a talking topic, and I certainly don't think it'll become global news simply because there's one odd looking bin on the high-street. I'm simply making the point that, from a council's perspective, things should look uniform, and I'd find it very unlikely that they'd go to the effort of signing a contract that allows some random guy to put 1 bin the middle of London, because it would look out of place. It's really not that deep, so calm down.

We have had solar powered bins for a few years in my city.(Melbourne). They compact the rubbish inside so the bins dont need to be emptied as often. They also have a wifi connection to the city to let them know when the bin is full. Apparently a normal city bin needs to be emptied 4 or 5 times per day. The new bins only need emptying once a day, and they can do it at night. With hundreds of bins in a city, thats a lot less cost, less labour to pick up the rubbish, less trucks blocking city streets and less pollution.

To be fair it would stop littering at night time but its too expensive especially for a bin

[@beeble2003]

How would it stop littering? People litter because they don't care, not because they can't find a bin in the dark.

William: "It also illuminates so it's easier to spot." Also William 20 seconds later: "Just let me turn this so you can see it better." Me: 😐

Doesn't retract from his point. You can still see the light even if they sign isn't directly facing you.

[@Rayhander]

@@EnclosedPoolArea I suppose you're right, I just found it hilarious that one of his selling points was that you could see it better because it lights up the proceeds to turn it so they could see it better.

This is one of the reasons I enjoy dragon's den. It's refreshing to hear business experts call bs on schemes like this. I intuitively react to clever salespeople selling nonsense, but I don't have the skills to drill down and explain why it's nonsense. Peter Jones has won my respect on that front.

[@rickysmyth]

More people see KZbin videos so technically according to him advertising on 15 dragons den videos should give Google a profit of over a million pounds per year. He'd be lucky to have enough advertising income to cover the cost of the bins

[@Chloe299XxX]

Weirdly every shopping centre has advertising on their bin in Ireland

[@Keekusu]

I still don't understand where he'd want to put the ads on.

[@ilijapetkovski]

Probably inside the bin …

[@pwill4real855]

On the sides... Thats why he had the lights as well

[@banzaiboy1597]

I don't know about other countries but quite a few places in Ireland now have solar powered bins but the power is used for compaction of the waste.

Very few people with that have seizures that are triggered by flashing lights. Think about it: if that were the case, think how easy brain conditions would be to treat

[@Kramlets]

If you wanted to advertise on a bin, you could literally just stick on an A5 poster on the front. I'm not sure why you would want to though?

[@D.34.N]

The only industry that would be suitable of advertising on trash bins is the pharmaceutical industry, especially the injection companies

[@oman9492]

All their medication is trash from pain killers to vaccines to abortion pills

[@lr2683]

Give me any proof that what you're saying is credible

[@paulp4452]

Surely it's the cost of emptying of bins that prohibit more bins being placed by councils.

[@WoFDarkNewton]

"Could you please turn the lights down?" He then proceeds to generate the light of a thousand suns.

[@estoylaroca]

The idea is good, but definitely subpar. Smart bins exist, where it sends a signal that it's full. This not only saves time but also money, since the garbage truck only needs to go to bins which are full. If he had incorporated that concept + to this advertising feature, then it would've been a banger of a deal.

[@yunsha9986]

But this bin isn't smart, it's only clever.
