"All of a sudden Barbara can do math" , "In the fried food business never trust a skinny person", ...so many gems from this episode! :-D

[@Locutus]

I think it's because she is dyslexic, so probably struggles to read numbers.

[@dylanfranz7001]

That's so true, but for that reason I'm out

[@Paige02]

@@Locutus I mean i notice a lot that a common example barbara uses is that she feels like she is back in that second grade or something, listening, trying her best to keep up just to be lost and struggling to manage it. maybe she needs to be emotionally invested and divoted into the company that she fully understands.

Literally all of Barbara's shark tank success stories involve food of some sort. That was definitely the right decision to stick to her

[@dominicpereira538]

That's her expertise in selling food products, Daymond is more of a clothing expert and Lori insanely good for any retail.

[@pineapplesforever1753]

Yeah, and I believe she’s also good with real estate

The way I see it , she gave up 5% for experience, daymond was offering cash flow basically. Barbara was 1000% the right choice

I'm so glad they're doing so well. But Barbara has the upper hand with similar businesses in her portfolio, Cousin's Maine Lobster, Pork Barrel BBQ, Tom and Chee, Press Waffles, and others. And they have already exceeded their Shark Tank valuation in one years worth of sales! A winner for sure!

Daymond didn't wanna buy it. He just wanted to see if he can make Barbera reduce her equity by competition. If she had shown a little bit of interest on Daymond, then am sure Barb would have dropped 5%.

Barbara is actually the third top deal closer on Shark Tank. Who knew this meme has no kernel of truth behind it. They usually do. Not this one. Lol.

[@vtag738]

Yeah, Barbara gives a lot of deals .. besides Lori and Mark. The only reason the meme exist is because Barbara would sound like she's about to make an offer then actually says she's out.. which is why I think people meme her

One thing I like about Shark Tank is the other Sharks seem to encourage people that come in to go for certain Sharks. It's like they always want a fellow Shark to make a deal.

[@polarisgemini52]

Not surprised Barbara took her. It has been her style to take in entrepreneurs who she has a good feeling about from her gut.

[@108077854]

" The deal with Barbara never closed. Holly faced a lot of issues during the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic but she made her way through it. In June, 2021, she announced the opening of a brick and mortar “drive-in lunch spot” in Lebanon, TN would be opening “soon.” As of January, 2022, the brick and mortar store has yet to open. Annual revenue is less than $1 million."

[@xxitsxixx]

Barbara saw the potential from the start and knew this concept would work. Damon couldn’t see it from the start until barbara made an offer, bc he doesn’t have the business experience that she does. And when he saw make an offer, he second guessed himself and jumped back on. Shows the diff in business experience with food and franchising.
