Solid Pitch, Fantastic Smile, Warm Personality, Very professional, driven, good head on her shoulders, what's not to like, investment guaranteed. RIP to your father, he would be very proud I'm sure.
Agree to the above, totally Craig. The relationship that She had with Her father was, clearly, wonderful; just a few years but far better than too many awful ones. Be lucky.
The way she talk, communicate, answer their questions, and confidence, she really is going to be a successfull person in the future.. i am actually idolizing her right now.
If this was Shark Tank USA,the entrepreneur would have started the pitch with the sob story.Full power to this lady for not even talking about her backstory until Hillary prompted her
Maybe but lets not pretend that these people who run the shows dont know about the history of the people coming on and without a doubt prompt the dragons to ask about it. Could even go as far as the entrepreneur being in on it to (as in being told to express their story on the show). This is common on shows like britians got talent, x factor etc. Lets not pretend these tv shows would pass up on emotional entertainment oppurtunities like this.
@@LBReaper101 these pitches last hours so I'm sure at some point in every pitch they ask about their history. They pick out the "best" parts from each pitch

From a presentation point of view, she was wonderful (excepting the slip up perhaps caused by nerves over the burn rate). Clear speaker, oozing charm and intelligence, I really hopes that this business works out - or rather - is working out.
If you know who this ladies father is, you will know that she's born for greatness. I can't even start to imagine what that pressure must feel like but at the same time it seems that its her driving force.
A fantastic pitch, a lovely lady and an amazing back story. She also has a beautiful genuine smile. When she was speaking I was mesmerised listening to every word.
Where are they now? According to Crunchbase, the company is now closed. It was acquired by Bright (an online recruitment network) on Dec 4, 2017 for an undisclosed amount which is when social media posts also stopped.
I was hoping she would ask both willing investors to split up 30% at 15% each for their £50,000 investment. Having 2 Dragons arguably beats only one, I think.
Depends on who the two dragons are tbh. In this case I'd agree it's better to have PJ with a higher stake in the business; that way he's more invested in its success.
Agreed with above but will add that it also depends on type of business. I think Peter alone has more than enough resources/connections to help develop a website.
Peter is more than 2 dragons though :) I am glad she picked him, no disrespect to the other dragon. To be honest this happens a lot on the Den. Peter makes an offer and someone else comes in after to try to match it. I have seen it with lesser pitches when suddenly they get interested after Peter's offer, because really he is pretty good at what he does, hence why his worth is more than all the other dragons put together.
This is incredibly difficult to demonstrate a website to would-be in investors, with only a couple of screenshots. She should have brought a laptop and a big screen so they could have used it and tested it.
I did similar pitches at Uni, using existing software to just make a basic prototype and never had any issues. There was great, free community building software like Dolphin around in 2008 and earlier.
These elderly dragons run in an old school mentality, I dont think they are tech savvy, more likely the let their secretaries or young staffs do the tech work
I would have liked to have heard more about the algorithm. I've dealt with similar algorithms and the time complexity has always been factorial. Multiply the number of interns by the number of placements, and square it. If they were only allowing the employers to state preferences, and not the interns, that would have halved the complexity but delivered a poor outcome for the interns. Running a cycle to allocate 300 interns at 300 placements would take several minutes. Multiply those numbers by 10 and the processing time is multiplied by 100 and it now takes several hours.
That smile Gorgeous girl Great pitch When youve heard Theo slate the idea rewind the vide to 1 minute and 13 14 15 seconds and look at his contempt for this lovely girl
You can have a picture on a CV. Linkedin has profile pictures. Its just that employers cannot reject/accept your CV based on your appearance, with a few exceptions like acting work.
I hope they also rate the companies. Otherwise, the employees would be at a disadvantage. By the way, if the candidates are to record themselves, so should the prospective bosses.

She Should Have Split the Deal with Both Dragons 15% each £50 k each. 2 is always Better than One. More Business contacts & Twice as many Businesses. They Have Connections With. Some of those Dragons Must have a DOZEN or more Businesses they have bought into Just on the TV show, Plus whatever they Already own. All these Businesses will need Top Quality & Qualified Trainee Staff.
I think personally she was better having Peter on board who’s a tech giant worth more than all dragons together. In that way for 40% you bet your life Peter will put a lot into the business
This is the first time I saw Hilary’s eyes light up like that. She REALLY saw the qualities and the potential this lady has!
