The Home Depot

Bernie Marcus and Arther Blank were the entrepreneurs or home depot. Arther was fifteen when his father died so then his mother took over the Pharisee. Handy Dan was the first home depot. when they payed the paper for there add they never printed there add so barely any people showed but after a little while the word got out and became very busy. Bernie and Arther were the perfect balance for a team, there strengths were that they wanted what was best for the customers. Arther was the service and inspirational guy and Bernie was the competitive guy, Farrah was the guy that was good at marketing and Longone was great with finances. They trained there employees to think for themselves. The home depot was a great experience for people. They got a add on the radio which help them by pass almost bank robtsy. Depots service and pricing was the best so it wiped out most of the do it your self businesses. home depot grew faster than wall mart. They were crushing all there enemies except Lowe's. Home depot had a high accident rate so they did more training and shrink wrapping. They upgraded to a twenty first century company. Home depot was successful because it had great customer service and good low prices. What i have learnt from this company is that when the goings get tough that there is always a way to get back up.

the apprentice 2

a week with Lil Kim, and on the road with Moby, leave the road open now narrow so then you can get a lot more then what you wanted. Net worth presented the experience a lot better than magma because they actually had the people there instead of pictures. But magma had better experiences with celebrities, like spending a week with Kim and Moby witch made a hefty amount of money and won with $21,000 and Net had raised $11,000. John and Erin got sent back so either one could get fired but I think John will because he did a horrible job and Erin did nothing wrong. John ended up getting fired. So in business you send who is best not your friends that would be second best because if you want to succeed you but out the best to receive the best.

The Apprentice

Make sure to give out clear directions and take responsibility, so that everyone knows what they are doing. Advertising and discounts make people more interested and can bring a bigger amount of customers. The team with the safari theme one because they advertised and use coupons to draw people in and they were more organized. The other team did a clown theme that was not a success because it did not advertise and they were not organized. Audrie was fired because she did not take the responsibility of guiding everyone, she knew the people were not trying hard enough yet she didn't guide them to the task clearly.

Master Moves

He is from Vancouver BC, 300k investment for 30%of his company master moves. The sharks are stunned that he thinks that his company is worth 1 million dollars. All the sharks backed out and as he walked away one sharks offered 300k for 100% of his company. But I don't think that this company is worth over a million dollars I think it is a good idea or a item to use for your core but there is way to many products out advertising for ab work outs.

Uro Club

25k for 51%, this product is making it able to go urinate without walking a couple hundred yards to the bathroom or woods, it holds 18oz of urine. 300k was put into this uro club, and three thousand have been sold already. All but one shark have declined because they just did not want to handle the business humor and the one shark offered 25k for 70% and that deal was accepted.

Pork Barrel Spice Rub

Pork barrel spice rub is great on meant and vegetables, the owners are wanting 50,000 for 10%. They are expecting over 1mil in profit Within the fist year. The offer from one of the sharks was 50% for 50,000 and they accepted the offer, a lot of the sharks dropped out because it is a big market to battle in and it is really risky because it ether it sinks or swims. I personally like the product but i would not want to invest into it unless I would get a large percentage. But the choice they made I think was stupid because they said that there was going to be 1 million dollars in profit within the first year and they sold 50% of there company for 50k which was a big loss.
