Top 3 Rejected Products That Made Millions | Vol.2 | Dragons' Den

Our multi-millionaire Dragons may think they're shrewd enough to spot a lucrative business opportunity when it's pitched right in front of their eyes, but they don't always get it right and, every so often, the rejects get the last laugh.
These are the Top 3 Dragons' Den rejects that went on to make millions:
00:01 - #1 Martin Wadsworth, managing director of DiscreteHeat is in the Den seeking £150,000 in return for a 10% equity stake.
13:29 - #2 Natalie Ellis is pitching 'The Road Refresher' - a non-spill dog bowl. She's seeking £120,000 for 15%.
23:55 - #3 Shane Lake & Tony Charles are pitching 'Hungryhouse' - a website for local take-aways. They're seeking an investment of £100,000 for 11%.
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.

What? The criticisms were very on point. Mainly, if it's so good of a product, then why has he invested 400k, and is still on a loss. As they've said... if he couldn't make a profit out of 400k, what would 150k be? And at 10% stake... just how long would it take for them to get the return again on ONE HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND. If it was a smaller ask, I bet they would've offered a deal. But 150k is asking for too much on a business that's still on a loss.

Bizarre the way they talk to him.

The Dragons could never have predicted Covid for the growth in food deliveries too

[@ianlister7333]

it was still big pre covid, but yeah its insane now. You can stand in a McDonalds or a KFC, and its just you and 10 delivery people.

[@travelwell6049]

Yes. And also how old is this? All dragon’s look really young.

[@craftyscotsman8970]

I''ve got one of those dog bowls in my kitchen right now. Had it for over 5 years. It is a great product.

[@georginathompson3788]

Those guys pitching hungryhouse are now worth more than Deborah Meaden 😂

With the skirting board heating Theo knew that the bloke didn't need the money but he wanted his name and expertise onboard. It's not about 100% money on here. Quite a few go on to get a dragon onboard to speed up processes and to open doors!

[@scottiedog4236]

Wow … The heating skirting board was amazing. I’m a gas engineer and every house built should be fitted with this

[@t.agamer392]

Hungry house/just eat is now worth over 17bn and is the main reason why online takeway is so huge now. Those dragons took a major L

So many Billy Big Bollocks in one room - loved the heating man especially when he buried Duncan B

Was waiting for a dragon to yell “what’s in the box?”. Missed opportunity

[@onweniprincessashinze982]

Living in Berlin and seeing how large ‘just eat take away’ is. I’m howling!

[@travelwell6049]

Looks like HeatDescrete product has had a lot of thought behind it. What I wanted to know is how well it heats the room in comparison to the radiator. Personally I like snuggling up to the radiator if I’m cold and putting my back against it when my back is full of tension.

[@yaboiavery5986]

Love the subtle Duncan disses

[@fredricful]

Hvist du flytter radiatoren hvordan fyller Di radiatoren som nå er bakom listen går det ikke vann gjennom gulvlisten? Hvordan ser hjørnene ut ? Hvordan må du ga en rørlegger for da og montere radiatoren?

[@dimitar4y]

....... Honestly that skirting room heating system is kind of genius

[@kevindunlap5525]

I always thought the heated floor was minimally an idea that could be refined and take off. Ironically, it's the middle of winter and I'm running the air conditioner in my room to keep it at 59 so obviously I wouldn't be a customer.

[@sinbadddx]

The first product is awesome however the guy must’ve not done any marketing, first time I’m hearing of this

[@OsireionAbydos]

I also love his product and would put it in my home.

[@programmer5855]

Just because you didn't hear about it doesn't mean he didn't do any marketing lol. Not everyone has the funds to have advertisements everywhere.

[@sinbadddx]

@@programmer5855 the exaggeration was obviously exaggeration, yes I suspect he did some marketing but a tiny amount, after all the years of his product being out I’ve never seen it before this and I doubt many have

[@Khonnell66]

Sometimes word of mouth is enough, particularly in trade. It isn't a DIY product so isn't going to be marketed to the masses, but if something can save costs to tradesmen, word spreads very fast.

[@mrbdrm2]

food delivery service like this never lose. they missed up 2 times
