Made me smile when Peter pointed out that it’s not marks business so not his decision to make on the deal 😊
I would’ve loved it even more if Mark replied
“It’s also not your business Peter and you’ve declared yourself out! So your instruction isn’t necessary.
However since I’m in an intimate relationship with the MD I know her equity ceiling”
@@hotrodd29that wouldn’t have been funny
Tbh he looks old enough to be her dad. That and the way he answered for her makes him seem sus. And she couldn't ask for lower after his reaction.
@@hotrodd29this is cringy and nobody would invest with someone like that. Also, he messed up and made them unable to really haggle. So he's a bad business man and he needs to let his wife handle her business
@meganmurphy7385 omg how judgemental are u...she's an adult isn't she she's over 18 so who cares about their age gap...wow
Finally! An entrepreneur putting up a fight! So many just stand there and listen to a Dragon's closing remarks and I'm thinking yooo just SAY something, now is the time to be persuasive. And just look where it got her. Bravo!
Yeah, shame her husband did that though, bit silly.
There have been others that have done the same
DM's face when Bartlett called himself a lion was absolutely priceless! 😂😂
If you have to keep telling everyone how amazing you are, it's probably because you're not.
If you're really good, you really don't have to tell anyone. Everyone will just know.
😮🎉
Yeah honestly Bartlett can be so cringe, clearly got an ego problem
Danger mouse was in the clip?? I missed that!
Steven is like joeffrey from Game of thrones
That was one of the most satisfying episodes ever. They came for Touker, he was interested, he made an offer, they were excited and they said yes.
Touker didnt want in but felt a little on the spot, he thought by raising the percentage they would walk away. But allas they accepted! Lol his face when they said thats the best deal they could of received...his face," I know." 😅
Credit to the Vietnamese factory workers for designing and making these baskets.
Mark would've accepted any offer if it meant that he didn't have to paint baskets anymore.
I actually think that guy was astute to just instantly take the offer. If they were willing to go up to that figure, there is no point beating around the bush. The reason is the deal has to be beneficial and attractive for both parties, and he wants Touker to be motivated. Also a lot of deals struck on the den actually end up not going through when it comes to the due diligence process if either side feels it's unworkable or won't be beneficial. So really if they are happy with him taking 40%, and it seems to be obvious that they were and had clearly spoken about it prior to the show, then there is really no point negotiating, it is better to just get the ball rolling.
So are you saying that, they made a wrong decision? Or that they didn't think through about how taking the investment would impact their business, and what the effects would be in the future?
Should they have declined the offer, or negotiated much more better and with much more finese.
They look like dust traps- really difficult to clean.
and they'd be ripped up in no time. Children's containers need to be tough!
Very cute designs. Reminds me of old patterns found in 60s and 70s craft books using yarn
The quality of the product is rather amazing given they made them themselves.
They don't make them. They import them from Vietnam and add the designs.
They all will do well no matter what.
Why?
They're just slapping cute fabric on a basket from vietnam? How low
They got inspired from Vietnam. The original people that make basket hand made. It would be nicer to see someone with a personal connection to pitch this idea
the people who used to comment "first" cant compete with the peach-bots
The peach-bots 😂😂😂
LOL!
Bartlett is a lioness.
😅
Bartlett is rude and arrogant, one good thing about Dragons Den he showed us his true colors and it's a no from most of us.
Diversity hire.

How do you mean?
In what ways does he present himself the way you have described him to be like??
😬😬🤔🤔🧐🧐🤯🤯🤷🤷🤷
(Not saying that you are wrong, but just wanted to know how he is the ways you describe him to be??)
That really isn't the insult you think it is.
Look i never understand when the dragons say oh its a small business....well isnt that the whole point of coming on here? To get investment to grow the business...
They should collaborate with designers and artist
Why didn't she just say
33%
After money paid back
Lovely couple, I hope they do well.
It's a basket with some cloth stuck to it. Dragons Den has no standards anymore.
Yeah bring back the Flow Signals
None of them even asked how much they were selling them for!
They did
It’s a successful little market business
Good Lord she looks like Jen from IT Crowd
how can you get on dragons den with a product like that.
A Lion? Stephen Bartlett 😂 does he make anyone else cringe?
Those are super cute they will sell a TON of them.
Yep well done... you got the best man for the job
I think Touker bagged , I mean ‘basketed’ a great deal. Go Touks
Genuinely nice people. Touker will grow their revenue.
Best job in the woorrld!
A product for people with lots of disposable income, these are £59.99 which is very expensive,
Great artist and great ideas :D
I wish Dragons Den would get back to basics of originality and inventive new ideas like it was at the beginning. Don't know why these dragons waste their time with most of these retail add ons. Dragons Den used to be expect the unexpected, now it's just redo of same same.
Too many toys, donate❤😊❤
some trashy baskets with fabric stuck on? people will buy any old tat apparently.
🤣🤣👍👍
I Love this product ..
A lion who paints his nails 😂
And lionesses do the hunting because they don't have bizarre gender standards.
RUclips really has to do something about these bots with scantily clad female avatars, clogging up the comment section of every single video with generic arbitrary comments that don't apply.
🤔
RUclips really has to do something about these Asians who keep commenting nasty things on the video.
asia has to do something about all these scantily clad characters
where your from is where all the scantily clad characters are
Touker- I wonder if you’d be interested in fairtrade!
Damn ive seen rip off of these in other stores now
just what the world needs!!! more overpriced junk. and you dont make them yourselves thats misleading, they're made for a pittance of a wage in Vietman
Curious, have you asked a vietnamese factory worker their opinion of their circumstance? Maybe it is an improvement from their alternative.
They made a huge mistake... on a family run business that makes 20 thousand profit to give 40% away. I wouldnt be surpised if they have second thoughts after this was filmed
But with help of a dragon they can sell ten times more and 60% of profit from that is way bigger than 20k profit
@@numsum Nobody seems to realise this though, yes 60% of something is better than 0% of nothing if the unsupported business doesn't grow.
@numsum wrong... there is literally hundreds of businesses like this that the dragons did invest in that ended up making no difference at all. There are countless stories come out that the dragons never actually do anything, they turn their "investment" into a bank loan and out the company into even more debt. Just look it up on RUclips and you'll see all the stories of unhappy entrepreneurs that regretted giving the dragons and equity in their family run smaller businesses
60% of 100 thousand profit is more that 100% of 20 thousand profit
Looks like cheap tat from a craft fair.
DON'T THE DRAGONS ever change their clothes??????
They use the same clothing for continuity purposes
Theyre all cloned. So theyre able to be here and still be able to run their businesses loll
They use to wear diffrent outfits.
Ha ha ha

The dragons aren't that intimidating they are lovely in real world
Again no handshakes and hugs. Insanity.
Full order books from here on - i can see huge success for the venture
The anti-Bartlett sentiment found here is curious.
8:58 Will smith said he doesn't have children well what about Jaden smith isn't he your child
So what's your professional experience? I've stayed at home for 7 years lol
Smart couple.
Make a nice disposable camping shiter .
@@MilIion5 kinda yer , could be competition for them if my hunch is right 🤣
Crappy. I can do that myself.
Baskets look like something you could buy at a farmers' market.
You do better sunny jim. go fo it i want to see you at the dragons den
@@pamelamckenzie2685 *sonny
Or use at a pick your own.
Lots of cheap copies and lots of expensive versions
I feel like this is a fraud
Maybe you could get your kids to make the baskets in much the same way the sweatshops would in South East Asia. Also, being a stay at home mum is not a job, that's just being a mum.
It is his business, he’s funded it all… she doesn’t work and pay for anything lol
Il distancia des sociales
They look a bit crap to be honest
Lol. I thought that about some of the painting.
ARE KIDS REALLY GOING TO NOTICE , get real
If your kids have so many toys that you feel the need to buy a ton of baskets then 1. your kids are spoiled rotten 2. You're fools are parents 3. Stop buying so many toys, the plastic is clogging up landfills, and 4. Get your kids outdoors or give them recyclable materials to play with like paper and watercolors, make them a castle out of cardboard boxes. The ideas are endless and don't fill up landfills.
You ain't a parent that's obvious.
@@WattzArtist Or perhaps he's a sensible parent.
@@WattzArtist an only child , thisis what you get,
