"I'm Peter Jones, Please Take My Fifty Thousand Pounds" | Dragons' Den 

Brilliant, only Duncan would say this

that's what expensive expansion packs are for ;)

That's true. The only possible way I'm thinking around this is that if they produce more and more games on an 'edition' basis. But then again, you'd need money to make them and market them which is what you need from the beginning so, it is tough

Cards against humanity is that but still going strong with expansion packs, after playing twice for myself it got boring very quick

Expansion packs 😂 it ain't a steam game.

@@gimmemoremoney Expansion packs are common in board games.

Don Haggis

Omg lol, I was thinking the same thing. Christ, he looked scary.

Think he had a few

Must be going thru alcohol with draws from the night before🤣

They must thank the gods that Kelly and Jenny never shared a season or will.

Her n jenny wait for the stars to align and a full moon to even consider an offer 🙄

She reminds me of spaghetti

Kelly never invest, and She is boring too.😮

Mr Godot 💕 I hope you found peace 😭

Scam ⬆️ ⬆️

Producer off screen urging Duncan to offer something ridiculous

I don't think Duncan's the kind of guy who cares about other people's perspective of him

​@@shariqahmad3088 true

🤣🤣

I came fast

never heard of it

@@shaunohagan1491 I hadn’t, I googled it, selling in Amazon and other shops.

@unidentified Chat to Ruth. Maybe you can sync. with her. An hour ago, you said the business had "closed down." 55 minuts ago, Ruth said the game is selling in Amazon and other places.

@unidentified Someone bought them out? If so, that would hardly be a "failure".

@unidentified Who says? And why does "Who" say?

i read they have done 5 million dollars in revenue

Amazon love it

@john west evidently a missed opportunity based on those figures

@@iffy4509 hindsight is 100% based on the evidence provided in the pitch and the dragon's knowledge of the boardgame industry it wouldn't have been a wise investment.

@@johnwest194 where did you see that?

Scam ⬆️

His point was that it was not making any money, not that it didn’t sell

To mr. whatsapp, no one wants to talk to a scammer, go ply your trade elsewhere.

no it isn't

@@animefan7424 That's right. This is a market with such low margins that would never make sense for an investor to step in. Hasbro, which is a giant in this sector, has a 6-7% net margin.

Linkee is great, our family has been playing it for years. What tf were the dragons playing at

There's THOUSANDS of questions.

Where did you get million units from? According to their financials they are making around 20k profit.

It was, after years of struggling to get commissioned. That's the point of the comparison.

@@kronic0961 The comparison was nonsensical though, because the problem for Who Wants to be a Millionaire was that it aspired to give away a ton of money, up to a million pounds. Try pitching this concept to a production company and see where that gets you. That's an extravagant amount of risk. The show had to be immensely popular in order to succeed. Luckily for the producers, it was. Btw, there was a game show called The Link which was based on their game. They weren't lying.

@@hellegennes That's a fair point. I didn't really consider that the possible reason it didn't get commissioned was due to the money giveaway.

I think he meant the boardgame based on the TV gameshow.

@@Tezzzaaa Oh yeah. I didn't even know there was one. I suppose it would be a flop, considering you wouldn't actually win anything.

But Jenny got all the hate smh

I don’t think I ever have seen that

She did one time, along with Deborah

According to their accounts it's been moderately successful, they're making some money but an investor would have been years waiting for a return at 15% for £50k. The business is worth ~£200k.

The TV show aired for 2 seasons with a total of 65 episodes from 2014 to 2015, it was called The Link.

@@WittyMick03 IMDB says 25 eps, not 65. Typo?

Only Connect started in 2008 and Linkee was founded in 2012.

Be quiet

In this case, it's Kelly

@@Goatz99 make me

@@Goatz99 jealous?

@@kaj661 there’s nothing to be jealous of? Why are you so angry who hurt you??

I’ve not seen one yet

I doubt it

Yes

For a business that made 3 grand,a half a million pound valuation was crazy talk

Sold over 100 million ' fact ' 2000 pound prada shoes more like

I'll get your coat.

Is a sandwich a burger? 👀

@@KyleMck A burger is a sandwich.

Really

I hope to be like these guys

Assuming you Googled "Linkee game sales"..? If so, then maybe it'd help also clicking the links you're reading rather than just the preview. If you had, the article specifically states "And Trunki, a sit-on wheelie suitcase for children invented by Rob Law, was also dismissed, yet has now had sales of more than £100 million." which adds a bit of context to the "...yet has now had sales of more than £100 million." which is shown on the preview.

The company a micro-business with less than £30k.

100 million sales is 100 million people paying money for the product producing huge profit ' gosh children

they are all english chocolate biscuit bars

@@jasonblackburn6828 Ah. Never seen them.

Came here to ask same!

Not sandwich it’s Club which is a delicious chocolatey biscuit 🤤

No

Funny Edwin 😀 don’t listen to Michael 😎

@Michael Terrell What makes you think it was a joke?

they did fine without him and continue to do so.

michaelterrell And I don't acknowledge your not responding. 😆

645 million net worth '

Kelly was quite a few years before Jenny joined, i dont remember Kelly ever investing in anything, same with piers, they both started at same time and left together, didn't like either

Jenny invested 12 times in her 2 years on the show, more than any of the other 2 year dragons (Nick 8, Hilary 8, Richard 7, Sarah 5, Kelly 5, Rachel 5, Piers 4, and Doug 2). Jenny invested more times than Richard and Piers combined, more times than Peter (9) in the two years they were on together, and more than any two years of Theo, Duncan, or James you choose to look at.
