Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary on how to win in business (even if it means firing your mother) - Boston Business Journal

Some interesting O'Leary answers on ST topics.

To complete the Trola-

I think that they would have received a similar bounce to what they got from a deal just by simply appearing on the show. Perhaps they benefit from the public who remembers just how bad that deal was and therefore people have them in memory and tend to use them due to familiarity? Anyways, I'm sure everyone is doing okay from the whole thing but it's still obvious that O'Leary is a cancerous leach that they're bound to forever.

I have nothing to back it up, but I bet companies who get some kind of deal on the show get a better publicity bump than those that don't. A deal makes the product seem more desirable, whereas a failed pitch makes the viewer want to see who's up next.

This is why I shouldn't watch the show. I get up at 4 am and decide to try out plated. I am so weak.

Positive is, that as of now, the promo code sharktank works to get 4 free meals! Downside is they charge you 20 bucks for shipping, but I am willing to pay 20 bucks for four meals. The normal price for the four meals is 60 dollars which in my opinion is much too high.

DT, any way you can put together some kind of investment pitch by tomorrow?

Hehe - I don't have anything to pitch.

I can't be the only one who FF's thru all the crying segments, right?

They are doing more crying than usual, but even though it is annoying, I never fast forward through it. Mainly because I never know how long it is going to last!

I definitely fast forward through the beginning. If I have to hear that Robert Herjavec was the son of an immigrant factory worker one more time I just might snap.

A couple of episodes ago that kid with the sticker company went with Mr. Wonderful over better offers. Even Mr. Wonderful couldn't believe it. He had a sh*t eating grin when he went to shake the kid's hand like I can't believe what a sucker you are.

I've gotten my crying editing skills dow . Dunno if anyone saw the Japanese putters segment but that was truly my final straw.

Mr. wonderful's toy deal was garbage. It was for that shitty learning software stuff that you can get free on an iPad now.

I've liked a few of the things recently. The construction doll houses looked cool. The Red Dress thing was a great idea, those people seemed genuine.
