00:00Welcome to the elevator.

00:04Four years ago, while working corporate jobs,

00:06we found ourselves facing a similar problem.

00:08We'd set out to for our best days,

00:10early mornings in the gym,

00:11a packed day in the office,

00:13a late night client dinner,

00:14all with trains, cars, and planes in between.

00:17These days came with the burden of carrying multiple bags.

00:20So, we set out to design one bag

00:22that functionally and aesthetically

00:24would serve us on the days we were most proud of.

00:26We believe that we've developed the best bag in the market

00:29and it seems like people are starting to agree.

00:31We're here asking for $40,000

00:33in exchange for 1% of our business

00:34to help us invest in developing new products

00:36and marketing initiatives.

00:37So, we hope you'll join us on the FTL journey.

00:40I love the pitch,

00:41which at least manages to get everything in.

00:43But did you like what you heard?

00:45I loved what I heard.

00:46It was a great pitch.

00:48I guess the only thing for me that was missing was

00:50what differentiates this suitcase

00:52from all the other ones?

00:54Also, how do they get a valuation of $4 million?

00:57If they have lifetime revenue of $250,000,

01:00that's a pretty ambitious ask.

01:05I think there's potentially something interesting

01:07in a royalty deal with an advisory piece.

01:11But I do think that there's been proven traction

01:15on this product from the data we've seen

01:17and the anecdotes we've heard.

01:18So, we're not going to give up this.

01:21If you wanted to come in and do a royalty deal

01:24on the Dobkits,

01:25I think that's something we'd be interested in.

01:32It's got to feel natural to me, it doesn't.

01:33So, I'm going to respectfully pass.

01:35Okay, I understand.

01:37Although we are not able to offer an investment today,

01:40on behalf of Amazon Business,

01:42we do want to gift you $10,000 cash

01:46to help you grow your business.

01:48Wow.

01:49Oh my God.

01:50I got goosebumps.

01:51That is amazing.

01:52Truly.

01:53That's going to help us so much.
