Like he doesn't have three or four extra people to chase misses around for him and retrieve the balls for him instead.

@@m74796 you forgot yo put your helmet on ey

@@m74796 some people like alone time

@@m74796 nah Mark likes to save money also.

That wouldn't help this guy at all. They already have 125 orders paid for they are struggling to ship out

It's not necessarily a better deal. It's the exact same evaluation but scaled down.

@@raultelles9896 Definitely not the same valuation. The original “non-negotiable” was a 833k valuation. He counter offered with a 1.2m and they met in the middle at a 1m valuation.

@@Clintaso You're right. I just re-watched the video. I was mistaken. I thought Mark offered 300K for 30% originally and then 250K for 25%. I don't know why I thought that. 🤦‍♂️. That's what I get for watching this stuff late at night

@@raultelles9896 no, mark offered 250k for 30% The guy‘s counter offer was 300k for 25% And mark last offer war 250k for 25%

@@SoraKemono-Tashi 😆 get out of here dude. I already explained my mistake. No point in adding your response 🤦‍♂️

He should have said " if we make it in flat black it would reflect less light and not stand out " we flat black our chicken coop wire so it doesn't reflect sun. Looks way less " prison "

Lol 😂

Classic

This is very true... Very classic... and it works bothside!

She saw how everyone else is always saying "im out" and shes going for a change new slogan " its ugly and for those reasons im in"

i wouldve not wanted her after she said its too ugly, she didnt like it...

Barbara will be like i like basketball and hence I am out

She's always after the person behind the product.

Because she thinks its ugly! otherwise she's out.

like her or not she only done smart deals.

That’s good to hear. If he gave away that much and then it flopped I’d be pissed

I mean it was already worth a million when they paid 250k for 25%. Do you mean they generated a million in sales?

@@dizzyb111 i could see them getting a 1000 units of sales at least from this exposure so thats 1.5 mil revenue right there.

no one gives a fuck about activewear

@@garbygarb31 people who workout daily do

Makes too much sense so I'm out -Barbara I don't know anything about that and I don't feel like learning so I'm out -Mark

This show and pawn stars have taught me that 99% of what you see on TV is scripted

Tried to counter at Wal-Mart and was asked to leave

@@infinitivly6216 LOL

Sometimes the Sharks have a real number in their head for what they want. For instance, let's say the entrepreneur wants $300k for 15%. The shark will offer $300k for 30% and then when the entrepreneur says $300k for 25% (That is the actual amount the investor wanted all along). But if the shark said 25%, then the entrepreneur will say 20%.

My thoughts exactly. When he came down to 25% I was like take it dude. Best offer you’ll get lol

@@wallaceluna6241 yeah, but he heard Barbara say 250k for 20% its all in the head

Agree man. $50K is nothing when Mark is on board. That’s 50% of the job don right there.

Well said.

They didn't end up closing the deal if you google it.

lol ridiculous

It's like she's from an alternate universe :D

I read this before watching the video and thought it was a joke.

Hahaha she just saw a challenge on the product to make it look good 😂👏

She even said it at the end… “I’m gonna make it look good” 😂😂😂 innovation changes the world guys

SAME😭

Dude the EXACT same here. So bummed.

They really should have several different lines. 1) the Rookie - just the net with a guided net sending the ball to you for like $50 (or what ever you can get it at) 2) the Pro - What's pictured here. (but make this the highest margin) 2) the All-Star - which has more going on with it (some detection software that adjusts to you as you move around the court, and something that keeps track of makes and misses) have that for like $6k

Good I'm not as crazy as I thought

14.95 yeah right

Mark likes working with Barbara. I don’t blame him. She’s actually an incredibly talented and savvy business person. She’s also (like Mark) completely self-made in terms of her wealth.

@@becazapatero2477 I mean her real estate is amazing but her company grows Millions so by using this machine in her places it can grow big

@@mistercat5300 Absolutely! ❤️🧘🏻‍♀️ Hey cool username.

It is SOOO refreshing to know someone else out there in youtube world has positive views towards Barbara. ❤️🧘🏻‍♀️

I wouldn't had ever bought this as a kid spending eons of hours shooting hoops. Part of the training is chasing after the ball so doesn't hit a car etc....

@@shac9131 Well that’s because you likely did not have ambitions or aspersions to go pro. If so you would probably know that all college and pro level players use similar units to practice shooting.

@@shac9131 as a basketball player i don't feel like this is a part of the training or grind. If anything it takes alot more time and energy. A shooting machine also helps simulate actual in game situations such as catch and shooting the ball off a pass. Theres millions of kids who want to play professional basketball. The separator is yes the natural talent but the hard work put in too. If i shoot 1000 shots a day and someone else is shooting less then me i'm more likely to have a better chance at scoring then the other person. If i work harder then one and have talent then im more likely to do more well. Chasing rebounds takes time off the 500-1000 shots made method. I dont really know how to explain it anymore simpler as im trying to explain it as less complex i can. Thank you.

@@dailyking I understand everything you guys are saying but I still disagree. You don't need a machine. Geesh... If only I could take a damn video to explain it

Dude if they have interest that means it has success, they only wanna make money and have control making you a nothing

One thing if u think money over control of some one is worth something much more then it’s not of value at all

Lol you know nothing about business just cause someone has more money and experience doesn't mean that you should accept anything they give you... If he didn't accept that would have been something else but just to think a minute is a good thing and shows he has confidence in his product.

@@Yslm69 no, it means he doesn't know a good deal when it smacks him in the face

Dude was dumb. They gave him a bargain.

@@oneheadlight8000 then do it

@@oneheadlight8000 yeah right reply to me with the IG when you get a deal with an NBA team owner 😂

@@oneheadlight8000 Ill be waiting to see the results.

@@oneheadlight8000 I knew I wasn’t the only one thinking something simple like this could be sold for way less.

@@oneheadlight8000 *has 0 proof of his work*

All the value of business angels/ Early VC is in their network, it takes you from being a nobody who doesn’t know which door to knock to someone who can get through any door

She usually invests in people. And after hearing his background, and what he had to do to make these, she’s willing to help him live his dream and be successful.

A lot of Barbara burner accounts around here..

@@anomiemnemonical578 🤣

Barbara bout that paper, grindset mentality

DAYUM

that wouldve been actually dope

Man I’m sure he would of thought of that but he felt that pressure and nerves that would of been smart!

@@CM-pr1oq it would’ve been somewhat equivalent to the deal that one company gave Robert with the golf thing.

Holy shit that's such a great idea

doesent matter, having mark with this product makes him millionaire anyways.

Wow

Well I hope Shaq gets in front of this guy. Shaq will make it the best it can be and he won't make it too expensive. Shaq could really help this company

Even when Barbara does a deal she’s out

@@Erikk87 LOL!!!!

Cool

She's a woman 😂😂 "I hate it,but I want it" 😆

Could, but that defeats the purpose of being the cheapest on the market. Everytime you add more complexity to the product, the cost of production goes up, making the end price go up.

@@EsOoBaCtvp Then make 2 products, one that can reach the more afluent consumer and big nba clubs as well, and one which can be branded as the cheapest in the market. And peole could pick what they like the best

@@EsOoBaCtvp actually, an engineering wouldn't necessarily make the product more expensive. Most engineers try to find ways to use the least amount of money but still have the product be successful. At least that's what all the engineers I know do. I think an engineer could make the product cheaper.

Guys... there were engineers involved in the creation of this product. It's not like some scrappy entrepreneur is designing that thing.

@@moredots I think the issue is that the entrepreneur isn’t an engineer. He didn’t have the opportunity, so no fault of his own. An engineering founder could’ve optimized it further.

How is it going now I personally don't think it's of good material quality

Its a test unit though, so i imagine the completed unit will look a lot more pristine

And 200k worth of pre-orders...

🤣🤣

LMFAOOOOO

Epic

WORD?

they meant price point discrepancy from manufacturing cost to sale cost, its too small. most mark ups are way higher.

Now it's $1995 😂

its now $2195

It’s now $4445

How old is he?

Just by looking at it, it looks really cheap.. Especially how low the pass is given back.. it looks like the ball won’t travel far if you’re shooting threes

Yeah I was gonna say...the action and construction do not look robust or like they are gonna last. It's one thing to have that kind of construction if you're gonna sell it for $89.99, but for $1500 it has to last no matter what the cost to make it is.

I don’t believe you. For all I know you could be a jealous hater. “I’m going to be 100% with y’all.” was not enough to convince me like other people. Maybe put a RU-vid review on your channel if what you say is true. Warning to other people and that goes for any shark tank video, people lie in these comments all the time.

I def wouldn't pay 1500

Lol 90 dollars you cant even buy a basketball

That is why he needed Mark (even tho he can shot) she needed someone who is into sports, she has hundrends of real estate so this product is PERFECT to sell in her. Most Rich people would buy this

From 8 feet away?

@@well.thy.one. never said they were in.

@@UrbanBricks no i mean the machine only seems to kick the ball out a very short distance

@@well.thy.one. kk

@@UrbanBricks just seemed like a weak pass, youd always have to run in so close to pick it up...and thats probably with a strong, fresh battery. At least you get your run in.

And for that reason, she's out

Agreed. Then it become a good deal because she was able to convince Mark into it (not that he wasn't a great lone candidate being an NBA team owner).

I think a portable version for like 2k would probably be pretty successful

This is why you never became anything worth oxygen on this earth. Death is a compliment to your fat self.

I kinda like having to go retrieve the ball. It’s cardio. All that jogging adds up. Plus: Free throwing isn’t like darts IMO - you can’t just be standing there “in the zone.” Your _whole_ _body_ needs to be pumping.
