Wow, Dragons Den is so different over in Canada compared to the UK. Congrats on the success! I wish you all the best.
haha, too true. but wow, awesome. it's great to see a humble appstore dev might even make it big time! i was actually happy for you when you sealed the deal, ending out much better than you aimed for!
Sorry for not updating this post The end result We are still packing and shipping books Trying to answer all emails ( and they keep coming) Dealing with investment offers Dealing with endless phone calls distributors publishers book deals single? women wanting to know if I am available sales people want to be employees speech coaches telling me how to pronounce Su Do Ku and the list goes on Dragons' Den changed everything over night. Amazing experience. No regrets! We somehow got on the front page of yahoo the next day and it went into overdrive.
Congrats on the building momentum. I've never even heard of the show since I live in the US. It is definitely similar in format to another show (involving "Sharks" rather than "Dragons") out here. I wish you the very best and continued success!
We finally got the funding! The money rolled in this week, so we are now going to start promoting Str8ts more effectively. Great times ahead.
Nice one dude. The big mistake they make on the UK show is starting too high with their royalties percentages. They walk in offering 40% or something and I think... what the hell are you doing? It's obvious they're going to raise that, no matter where you start, it's called bargaining. You might as well start much, much lower and let them whittle you up slowly.
Cool to hear it's working out well. Are you seriously getting women from this? Maybe I should go on TV...
