This is a link post Dragons Den Bannantyne Gets owned
A MANCHESTER entrepreneur whose heating system was rebuffed by the Dragons Den team is fired up for expansion after winning a £2m order.

Martin Wadsworth appeared on the TV programme last month, asking for a £150,000 investment in return for a 10 per cent stake in his company, DiscreteHeat. Instead of the cash, he ended up sparring with Duncan Bannatyne.

£2m win for idea Dragons ignored (news story)

This is a normal post A totally worthless link that proves nothing.
For a start, turnover means bugger all unless you're making a profit. The bloke himself said he made a fucking huge loss in the first year, and a measly profit in the 2nd.

How much profit is he going to make on that £2m a year turnover? Don't forget that he's only offered 10% of his company for £150,000.

Secondly, in order to get to the stage where only Bannatyne was left in, he must have failed to convince all the other dragons that he had a good idea, so to imply that it was only Bannatyne that rejected him is misleading.

Of course, Bannatyne is a fool for thinking you can make a conducting item out of wood, but is he a fool for keeping his £150,000 in his pocket instead of having 10% of a company whose profits are still unknown? Jury's still out on that one.
