RealTalk the issue is that 90% of the people that come on any of the Shark Tank shows are there as a sort of last resort - it’s mainly tailored towards those people. One of the Shark Tank shows even gives all of the investors a tiny percentage of every business that comes on, regardless of if they make a deal - since they’re getting airtime and the businesses are that desperate.

For anyone who is interested, we did not end up taking investment from the sharks and decided to shut down about a year after this. After about 2.5 years offline we decided to reboot at a smaller scale that was maintainable without taking outside investment. As of 2021 we are back up and running

A deal was never consummated after this show and the site failed to raise money to scale itself up for the demands. So betswaps is now closed and the owner developed an app that primarily supplies race information but not tips. Certainly, due diligence paid-off for these two sharks because as what usually happens in these sites, the investors would've been told to put more capital in or face losing everything. The sharks got off easy on this one.

I know this was filmed few years ago, but there are A LOT of these kind of websites that give tips on betting and I have used a few actually but I have never seen this site so I doubt it was the first tipping site as he says, surely it would be one of the most popular then, because they all basically offer the same thing
Hmm... his website's turned into an under-construction landing page... anyone know what happened to it?

According to his LinkedIn, he was "founder" from Sep 2013 - Nov 2017. It seems like it was changed to swoopers.com.au/ (At least it's owned by Betswaps Holdings Pty Ltd) - I'm not sure what is going on, on betswaps.com. Betswaps is hosted on a US server, while swooper is hosted on an Australian one, so maybe betswaps.com is gonna be based on the US market? I'm not sure though. None the less, it seems like he is no longer a part of it. And also, a search on LinkedIn reveals past shareholders, a CFO and more. But all is past, I can't find anyone who is working there now.

Hi Rohan. This episode was filmed in late 2015. We reached a point where scaling issues got in the way of getting the product (~5,000 users) to where it needed to be rebuilt and could not raise the money to bring in enough people. As founder I bought out all other investors (Steve and Glenn never invested in the end but there were others) and began a re-write of the product in a way that would make it scale globally. During that time the market conditions changed and it didn't make sense to continue with the project. There's a chance we could be back one day (we have half a product built and we had some great product validation) but the appetite for investment in gambling is not high, which means bootstrapping is the only option.

Super interesting negotiation
Just to give you all some context. Of Steve, Jennene, and Naomi, Steve is the richest at a networth of $50 million. John, the guy with black hair, has a debt over $16 million. Glen and Andrew are the only ones with a networth over 100 million. One of them is close to a billion and I think it's Andrew at 700 mil
One thing I like abou Aussy shark tank is , tables can turn anytime where after entrepreneur pitch the shark need to pitch about how good they are and how can they help him/her
He didnt need andrew to tell him to advertise to america. Americans love their gambling and you can hook them with a simple static image lol
6:10 that music. He sees it. He's fucking geeking out over their shit while they're doing it.
This kid is amazing!!!
I like Steve and his straight to the point attitude - but just being curious - why is he asking everyone "where are you from" ?
What a smart kid! Those sharks were kinda pushing him around a little bit with those 30 percentiles. What a rip off for a company that is most likely gonna take off without any of the sharks. Steve fought his way in. That was great. These 5 sharks are my fav. Sorry Mr. Wonderful. Edit: Is it true that the site ended up failing? Steve and Glen never actually invested? That sucks. Seemed so promising.
So will Steve and Glen each pay 200K for 15% which means a combined 400K for 30% ,or will they each pay 100K for 7.5% which means a combined 200K for 15%?
