The key moment for me came at the end when Hannah said she genuinely did not know what to do. That level of natural self-awareness, besides being very well prepared and driven, is a superb skill. Well done.

[@H1ghligttR3el]

She showed many fine qualities during this pitch. Above all else I admire her humility and how grounded she is. Wish her every success in life!

[@tonygrinney7115]

Everything about this businesswoman and her presentation is immaculate. First look at how she is dressed - immaculate, how her products are displayed - immaculate, the products themselves - immaculate, presenting her business figures . immaculate, product research - immaculate. When you have covered all the angles - how can you not get a bid from the Dragons? How people can come onto the show and not know their numbers amazes me. Well done Hannah!

[@originalunoriginal4055]

Yhh it's even more surprising that, despite there being numerous examples of pitches failing because the entrepreneurs don't come prepared with the very essential 3 figures of their business performance.

[@philipchambers5410]

She is unbelievable. Well done. Dragons den been on for years and when she found out she was going to be on show, she prob watched every episode, made sure what dragons expect in a pitch, what they like and dislike.. She said it herself.' I'm coming on to dragons den, why would I not have the figures.'... Well done miss, I to came from bad upbringing and brining it in to her pitch made her more likeable and human and grabbed their attention straight away. 👏👏

This woman is inspirational. This is the kind of person who, had she been a teacher, would have truly made a difference to the futures of her pupils. Work experience days just don’t cut the mustard when it comes to real life. So many skills displayed here from selling to finance to understanding futures markets and projections. Along with the art of engagement and body language, of listening and above all, the importance of good preparation. Education providers, take note.

the toddler and baby market has huge potential, because parents are willing to spend a LOT of money on their kids care products. the shampoo i buy for my 3 yo costs 15 euros for 250 ml.

[@tonygrinney7115]

Absolutely! Does he not realise that the mother's who buy the product for their baby are not going to use it themselves? Of course, they will test it on themselves first and then when they really like it, they will continue to use it for themselves as well as their baby.

[@notrecyborg5492]

She has a team.... some 'hands on' investors have involvement with up to hundreds of businesses. They have a team and they put people in charge of certain things, they delegate and compartmentalise so as to be efficient and still make good money from their investments. Any failed ones they just quickly wrap up and move on.

I'm surprised some of the Dragons didn't know the huge market for children. I thought they'd know due to their business experience that parents spend ton of money on children health care, and some will buy more than one bottle, some have more than 4 children. Very surprised they couldn't see the potential and how difficult it is to even sell in this market which means, she's done amazing well, knows her business and market inside out. They could have later redone the brand, branched out more to adults at a later date. Oh well, she still got what she wanted.

Peter complaining that she - as a small innovative business - is operating in a niche within a niche, so it's unattractive. Clearly, he's long forgotten what a Startup is all about. She was very clear about building a 20M business. She didn't say Unicorn - 20B. And if anyone thinks that toddlers - 3yrs old and younger - is a tiny "niche" - they're lost. 8B people on the planet, who continue to have babies at a rapid rate - not just those in impoverished communities. So that parent segment is definitely not "niche", it's mainstream, her products are differentiated for specific family members. As an entrepreneur, this is my issue with Dragons like Peter: he's too stuck on the 22nd floor of his ivory tower looking at big enterprise deals to understand what modern day Startups should focus on to accelerate.

[@annikamodig5917]

Does anybody know anything about the upcoming season 20?

[@meetalleeka]

That probiotic hand gel bugs me. How are bacteria which live in the gut helping disinfect hands? They can barely make it through the stomach, and there's not really any good evidence they do anything beneficial when they do, so how is their being slathered over hands going to do anything? Is there any evidence of their efficacy in fighting viruses and "bad" bacteria outside of the body when, as I just said, there's scant evidence they work inside? How long do they live there for? Has the business owner funded any proper medical studies into its efficacy, or is this yet another, "This is good for X, so it must be good for Y" snake oil fallacy? It doesn't matter how many people rave over it, the plural of anecdote is certainly not data. I sincerely wish people would be more critical of these kinds of claims when they are made. It also says it has lemongrass to "detoxify". From what? The whole detox fad is yet another snake oil venture. I'd avoid this like the plague.
