Comments
It would have been a great show if you discussed how Make It Work did not have ANY of the characteristics you insist on your other shows that a venture business MUST have in order to be able to get funding.
1. Scalability
2. Positive cash-flow
3. Intellectual property/ barriers to fend off competition
4. Few employees
5. and so on
