What's the company worth?
It's odd isn't it? I saw one guy offer his company at something like 10% for $320,000. In other words he "valued" the company at $3.2m.
The Dragons, playing him along I feel, got him to move to something like 50% for $320,000 - valuing the company at $640,000.
If you had done your projections soundly and had solid financial assumptions (and I guess these aren't televised as they'd bore the shirt off most viewers), then how on earth can your company value decline by 80% in a matter of miinutes? With no change to the market, costs, price, etc?
Just suggests to me that good ideas and sole practitioners doesn't necessarily impart business sophistication or success.
