sharktank tv show on ABC

The show sharktank came out three weeks ago. The rating show it had six million viewers. That's pretty good considering a new show. The only thing I think is missing is some kind of interactive component where the audience can vote. The text messaging reveneus could approach ameircan idol if they were smart. Lets see what they do to add "legs" to the show.

Deal breakers when raising money

there are certain thins that are deal breakers when looking for money. they usually revolve around a business owner being clueless about what his customer wants. The angel investor gets lectured by the entrepreneur and nothing happens. entrepreneurs need to be humble enough to realize nobody care about what they think. its only there customer that counts. That's all investors care about also. that's the only thing that matters. if you rub a BUSINESS TO SHOW THE WORLD HOW SMART You are its guaranteed to fail.
