00:16Come on, boys. Look at that. Your life depends on it.
00:20And then hit him.
00:21It's a deal worth fighting for.
00:23I can sense a bit of friction, actually.
00:25Daniel, was that on you?
00:26No.
00:26I was joking then.
00:2820 candidates.
00:30Never been kicked in the balls by a goat, to be honest with you.
00:3312 tough tasks.
00:35This is a complete and utter joke.
00:39Just jump straight in.
00:40One life-changing opportunity.
00:43You're fired. You're fired.
00:44You've completely messed it up. You're fired.

00:55Previously on The Apprentice...
00:57You are going to have to source nine items associated with the Isle of Wight.
01:03Run, run, run, run.
01:03Yeah, I've just got a couple of questions that were just struggling.
01:06Levi had a slow start.
01:08Do you know what a bird's nest is?
01:10No.
01:10Ah, and Kieran turned on the charm 15 and you can have your basket back as well
01:17Right, let's go put a last-minute deal
01:21Sealed Levi the win the total of six hundred and fourteen pounds and seven heads well done
01:27Leaving Harry you should have walked away and found another vendor all at sea you're fired
01:397 p.m. Final nine. I can't call it right now. I think there's a lot of good strong candidates.
01:45It's all nine people
01:47Game's on game is on. It feels like more of a fight now. I can't lie to you. Everyone has
01:52to step up to the plate
01:53Like you literally cannot hide
01:55Oh, okay
01:58Oh, it's from Lord sugar
01:59God, he's gonna be
02:01Let's play this
02:03Good evening. I'm sorry to interrupt your downtime, but I wanted to let you know about your next task
02:10What better way to do that than via the small screen because being on screen is what you know are
02:17gonna have to get used to
02:18in the UK TV shopping
02:23It's a billion pound industry and I have arranged for you to sell live on one of the leading
02:29Shopping channels tomorrow you have to select a range of products before producing and presenting your own slot
02:38The team that generates the most money from sales will win and on the losing team at least one of
02:45you will be fired
02:46And by the way, I'll be watching your every move
02:50Because this is a sales task. I want to see you all
02:55Sellers nowhere to hide. Yeah, so good luck. I'll see you in the boardroom in a couple of days
03:00So it's different this year
03:03Everyone's selling everyone's got to get on the telly and just to know that there's like thousands of people watching
03:07you like so that
03:08There's no room for messing up. Yeah, I can't wait. I've been looking forward to this one. I'm very excited
03:18Eight a.m. They're looking forward to this task like yeah, I'm excited eight hours till teams go live
03:24There's only one reason why I'm dressed up like this today guys. I'm ready. I'm ready to be p.m
03:29Pushing for the part of project manager. I sell people skills for a living and
03:34Yeah, I'm ready to take on the role pasha
03:39I'd also want to put myself for this p.m
03:41Because this is where my experience lies as a consultant on social media a big part of that was live
03:47tv selling and live selling on tiktok
03:49I mean because of your experience krishma
03:52I have to go with the skill set. I'm gonna have to save for you likewise
03:55I feel exactly the same you've put together a very compelling case
03:58I do get it but even with your knowledge it can be implemented with me being project manager
04:03That's just my opinion and I know it's hard for me because I'm really passionate about this
04:10To make this fair then as pasha it hasn't been p.m. I think this will be a good opportunity
04:14for her to learn from you
04:15And i'm so so keen to be project manager if you're happy with that
04:20As long as we win
04:24Rely on everyone's experience and expertise to share knowledge and that's what it's all about as well. Absolutely
04:30Krishma clearly has experience in this field
04:31However, lawrence and priesh were swayed by the fact that pasha hasn't been project manager and would like to give
04:37it a go
04:37I mean frankly, that's really not a good enough reason. They should have gone with the more experienced person
04:43I'm excited
04:47Across the hall who shall I be handing the crown to for project manager keen to call the shots
04:52Conor
04:53I'm happy to put myself forward
04:55I have experience in live stream and obviously in the selling in the market. I did quite well
04:59I would also like to put myself forward myself for a living
05:02I've proven myself selling in this process
05:05But ultimately this is also about the products we select we have to keep in mind who's watching the show
05:09However, it does come down to sales techniques tactics. I've almost 10 years experience in selling live selling at all
05:16or
05:17I do a lot of video
05:19I think we're wasting a bit of time
05:20I have done social media live streaming
05:22All right, shall we go to a vote? Kieran
05:28Conor it is
05:28Conor it is
05:29Bravo
05:31I'm feeling confident today is about tv selling and I have experience in live selling
05:36I wasn't going to hide in the shadows any longer
05:38I think the time to put yourself forward is now
05:40I've got to say I'm happy that you're project manager because I think you're the best man for the job
05:44here
05:44Thank you
05:48I
05:49Feel like the money is going to be in the beauty products personally putting forward her plan and the kids
05:55and teens
05:55That's where we could probably sell the majority very quickly. Yeah first time project manager tasha
06:02If we love the product and we can relate to it then we can sell it and I know it
06:06is a bit of a selling strategy
06:08This is my personal strategy s stands for solve a problem when you sell something if it doesn't solve a
06:13problem
06:13It's harder to sell it e sense of urgency emergency and exclusivity
06:18Tell them there's only eight left r stands for relatability drawing an anecdote
06:22It's like, you know, my grandma has arthritis and this really helped her with this or whatever variety
06:27Is it for men? Is it for women? Who is it for and finally eat energy and excitement?
06:31The more excited you are about a product, you know
06:33I have this and it's great and you know, I would recommend this to my mom blah blah blah
06:39I
06:39Pasha was given a very brief and broad strategy, but what I gave them was specifics you can bpm just
06:46to take it off the box
06:47But this is my task so think strategically think strategically
06:51So, yeah, okay, but yeah, I mean, thank you for that kushma. That's great. Yeah
06:59I do think homework balances out with fitness as well, so we have fitness and homework. Yeah, so you're going
07:04into two different lifestyles
07:05Stepping through rolls with his team and we will go on product selection with kieran levi and I sales expert
07:11connor
07:12The deal of the day item is a jewelry item so rafa and dan. I just I see you guys
07:17going there
07:18But I just need to know from you
07:19Do we go for like everyday jewelry that you can just throw on put aside don't really care about the
07:23quality of it?
07:24Well, you guys are going to be selling and what do you think?
07:28I mean, I think having clarity is really important
07:30Yeah, because obviously myself and dan can pick whichever item we think is best
07:34But when it comes down to how much we can sell it's your call
07:39It's it's whatever you guys feel more comfortable with
07:42I would not buy anything in the thousands on a tv channel
07:45Yeah, and you want to try it on you
07:47Yeah, I would agree with the mid-range
07:49I trust you to be like if you think the lowest price of them you can sell them
07:53Yeah, lowest profit if the highest item isn't that expensive you guys and together will be able to deduce what
07:59is the best thing to sell
08:00Mm-hmm
08:01Yeah
08:04I do feel like the pricing strategy wasn't 100% clear. Yes a mid-range was mentioned
08:08I wrote down mid-range
08:09However, I do feel a little bit nervous picking an item that connor may not be happy with
08:13But ultimately it wasn't the clearest of briefs because we don't know the prices what we'll do myself and dan
08:18Look at the selection that we have there look at the cheaper side and higher side and then just ideally
08:22pick the one in the middle
08:23Yeah, yeah
08:25Christian obviously you're very good at jewelry and you understand that so I would love you to sub team lead
08:30on that side
08:30And I would like your answer to join you on that
08:33Would you want to go on the high-end side or would you want to go somewhere more affordable?
08:37So we sell more volume affordable make that your keyword cool. Let's get going good luck guys
08:4611 a.m
08:48Teams divide
08:50Everyone in this process has been project manager once for the right task
08:54Yeah
08:54And even though we're getting to the end i've waited for that right task
08:57I knew that one was coming and i'm ready exactly sell sell sell
09:03I understand the principles of live streaming but ultimately it never gets easier right because I was like it is
09:09a one-way street
09:10There's not a lot to work with you have to back yourself because there's going to be numerous times in
09:14the 10 minutes
09:14That you might be there that you're going to lose your train of thought something will go wrong
09:18And the real strategy to win this is how you bounce back
09:21You're right there kieran yes
09:26In feltham west london headquarters of shopping channel tjc
09:32Broadcasting deals to british living rooms 24 hours a day
09:37Hello hello hello hi good good how are you first job for both teams
09:42We have a beautiful gold necklace so what would be the like recommended selling price for this
09:461 399.99 pick out a trinket to tempt buyers at home so the second one is a multi sapphire
09:53bracelet
09:53Determined to sparkle what is the gram weight over eight grams eight grams lawrence and karishma
10:00So finally we have a tanzanite ring in gold
10:04And the obvious question in terms of the lower medium and higher value item is this the medium one medium
10:10it would be between
10:11599.99 to 399.99 how many have you got of these it's not 11 11 11 right
10:17You know sterling silver has the 925 yes does this have a 9k on it it's 9k yes
10:22So it's not a plate of metal it's no it's gold 9k through and through yeah over two pounds of
10:25gold
10:26Tanzanite comes from an eight mile stretch in the merilani region in tanzania
10:30Has it had a big impact because obviously an eight mile local area and and a positive impact maybe on
10:35sure
10:35So there's a lot of infrastructure that's being built in the country because of this
10:38And correct me if i'm wrong but the royal family actually owns a lot of tanzanite isn't it correct
10:43Yes okay any other questions tonight um so
10:51I think yeah i i actually don't have any have any more questions to ask but it's been great to
10:56see all of your products today
10:59Got my eye on that tanzanite ring
11:01I do think the other team could see that we were a bit more dominant like our voices were a
11:05bit more louder
11:05So he's going to see that we're clearly more interested in that
11:08I mean we just have to get this ring i think both of us were very clear that that was
11:12Our favorite choice you know i can imagine you selling it because i think that i can imagine you selling
11:17it mate
11:18Yeah yeah yeah me on the history you on the you on the info
11:21You literally got goosebumps as you're speaking like yeah this this is the one
11:27I don't know what to say neither do i
11:31I can't lie to you the way karishpa has a lot of confidence with her jewelry they obviously want the
11:36ring
11:37Yeah but that's the mid-range one i know obviously connor asked us to go for the mid-range one
11:42It's a tricky one isn't it it's a really tricky one dan
11:45I think personally it could be easier to sell the bracelet plus i don't know what connor
11:50Meant by medium range i think that there might be the most sensible choice
11:54I think we've decided yeah let's go bracelet
12:01Right vintage pendulum wooden wall clock i just see grandma weighing up what else to sell on screen
12:11This is really boring yeah connor levi and kieran
12:16Adjustable shoe dryer you just turn it on pop your shoe off
12:21Pop it on i've worked outside in construction yeah and my boots get wet all the time so this could
12:26Be going so i'm working outside walkers so you would actually use this i won't allow me work
12:30Boots in house because i stunk so this probably be something that's something you could do it's
12:34Definitely usable the core crusher circuit board the high price is 149.99 i've got my core exercise here
12:43That's it yeah do you feel the burn yeah i do is it easier on your knees
12:51Would you feel confident pitching this on tv i think it's extremely pitchable
12:58Resistance
13:00Kieran and levi believe in the products that we've chosen as do i
13:03My biggest concern now is that the guys don't focus on attention to detail and the sales aspect enough
13:08But they are excited about the product so that does give me great hope
13:11Non-sleep yoga mat now this gets me excited yeah so kieran kieran i can imagine you with some
13:17Sweatbands and leg warmers love it kieran mate i'd give you a telling for that right now
13:25On the other team we need to focus on price i want to pick one high cost item which we
13:30sell a few of
13:31Potentially but obviously at a very good price pushing for products to suit every pocket and then two
13:36Lower cost items which hopefully we can sell out potentially project manager pasha
13:42A table tennis set with retractable nets the lowest price is 7.99
13:46So this ticks the box for the low cost item okay water flosser not gonna lie i have one of
13:54these at home yeah
13:56You can see how
13:58Powerful it is
13:59The lowest price is 9.99 i mean obviously it does hit what i said in terms of the low
14:03price i am okay
14:04Noise cancelling bluetooth headphones with air purification interesting oh this is a cool gadget
14:10Is it noise cance you can't hear me yeah it is a very expensive product the highest price is
14:14449 so i think the noise cancelling bluetooth headphones yeah and the table tennis set yeah
14:19And then you've got the flosser i'm really glad we stuck to the structure yeah i think we did a
14:24good job
14:272 pm hey hey how are we doing how are you guys soon teams will go live to the nation
14:35it's your all-in-one gym i saw something in it and i'm going to put my full backing into
14:40this
14:40premiering their chosen products personally this is something that my granny would buy just to keep herself active
14:46kieran levi and connor but i stand over it that when it's demoed and when it's sold well
14:51it could actually be a real reward for us yeah
14:55we then bring out a portable shoe dryer okay
15:05how does it work then exactly so uh you bang your shoes on here on end will it fully dry
15:11or what's
15:13it what's it doing is it is it to dry the shoes does it smell nice it dries the shoes
15:17but it's also
15:18odor eliminating there we go yeah i mean honestly never heard of it a bit of a peculiar one maybe
15:27men
15:27will buy it more i don't yeah i mean look i i personally couldn't even think i needed something
15:33like this yes i i'm more torn towards this just because my experience of having wet feet again in
15:38construction i i stepped in a lot of puddles even up to up to my waist at times
15:46well i mean i had a few concerns about all the products that they selected um obviously the shoe
15:50dryer i couldn't really understand whether it was a deodorant freshens up the shoes i didn't really
15:55understand what it was so i'm a little bit concerned about that item we then bring down a
15:59part of the kieran lights yoga yoga mat with handheld straps yeah what do you think dad i mean a
16:08yoga
16:08mat's a yoga mat isn't it across the hall we have the cheap option which is a table tennis set
16:16the big
16:17reveal is it amazing no is it something that we can make amazing that's with us of pasha's products
16:26now we have the more expensive option noise cancellation headphone set do you want to pop it
16:32on yeah go on as soon as these clip in the air starts coming out as well
16:38just tuck it yeah there's like a
16:43it's got it around the wrong way let's get it wrong now then later yeah it's a little bit
16:50now try tricky it's about finding it in the right place but they do just attach magnetically
16:56the best way to do it is actually just show it like this
17:12priesh has been given the headphones to demonstrate and sell live on air i mean he couldn't fit the air
17:17purifier on the actual headphones he didn't quite know how to turn them on i mean he's coming live
17:23in less than an hour i hope he does a lot better when he's actually on air otherwise it's going
17:29to
17:29be unwatchable it's a little bit terminator-y once it's on yeah ultimately anything that does add air
17:35purification it's an add-on it's not the product
17:40so this is what we've got we've got um the bracelets for connor's team bling signed off i trusted you
17:48i
17:48give you full autonomy so i can't i can't not back you guys next decide who sells what
17:56kieran you are obviously drawn towards the yoga mat i think you're happy to sell that
17:59levi shoes you've got the story i'm going to lead on the circuit board and dan you and rothna the
18:05jewelry item and then i'm going to do my only concern is i have a selling background do you want
18:11me on
18:11one of the higher priced items i think you were very vocal about being comfortable with this you were
18:16you're cool i'm putting out there no no oh sorry no no i'm i'm i'm not saying i'm just asking
18:21would
18:21you rather be on higher or stick to them no i stick to the match i was like i've got
18:24this
18:25let's get the jury i feel like connor doesn't trust me um i've got the lowest item but you watch

34:33chaotic we're being very chaotic right now five four three relax we won though go on do it do we
34:39do it
34:40do it thank you very much is that it thank god for that
34:50that was hard look and did we sell as much as we wanted to no i am extremely disappointed that
34:56was
34:56chaotic the failure of the task if we do lose tomorrow in the ballroom it's got to come down to
35:01the pm people with no sales experience have gone on and sold connor didn't let's get out of here okay
35:08let's go let's go tonight back to the house tomorrow final sales revealed in the boardroom
35:25i'm a little bit nervous today because obviously didn't sell any of my deal of the day pieces
35:30so a little bit upset and scared to what's going to happen in the boardroom today
35:35i brought cornerback to the boardroom last week he's definitely going to bring me back if we lose
35:40it's game on i'm ready for a war i feel like i'm walking into a lion's den with nothing to
35:45defend
35:45myself with it is a live tv selling challenge i'm not sure if i sold anything so that leaves me
35:50in a
35:50pretty vulnerable position you can go through to the boardroom now
36:13so tv shopping um team alpha i believe that karishma you wanted to be the project manager
36:24is that right yes lord sugar but then again pasha you haven't been a project manager have you you kind
36:30of like ducked it um i was waiting for the right task i haven't got experience live selling however
36:35i do have a big following on tiktok and i do have a social media present so you know i
36:42just felt
36:42like my skills and abilities would be best for this this sort of task so pasha's passion versus karishma's
36:50charisma yeah and i think we worked really well together okay so product selection the structure
36:57that i went in with is i want a high cost item and a low cost item if we can
37:02sell just a few of
37:03the high cost items potentially that could be the reason that we win the task so what you ended up
37:08with
37:08was the headphones the water flosser um and table tennis yeah so where was your luck um karishma while
37:16this all this was going on so lawrence and i spoke of the jewelry expert we were also joined with
37:22rothana and dan um we kind of were competing to get the product we wanted um we expressed our interest
37:28in the mid-range item you mean the ring the ring the tanzanite ring i was watching you uh selling
37:34that
37:34stuff apparently there was 11 in stock or something like that is that right yeah yeah um
37:42there still is 11 in stock there is at the moment yeah because i'm afraid you didn't succeed and then
37:48one
37:48the reasons i think you didn't succeed was because in my opinion you missed out the point of who you
37:54were selling to it should be love it should be about you know a gift for somebody instead you start
38:01giving them a a geographic um description of where it comes from who gives a about that
38:10not exactly lord of the rings there my friend not quite no i mean in fairness krishma knew a lot
38:16about
38:16the rings and i think there was a bit of scarcity because um it only comes from a very small
38:21area
38:22anyway i think the first people on your team was you and you with the headphones right
38:29correct okay and in the gallery was them two correct yeah and silence i heard you sat there doing
38:37nothing for a while krishma you were close to mike do you do you agree with that um so we
38:44were
38:45instructed was you getting much feedback initially um initially to be honest my earpiece was cutting
38:51out every it wasn't cutting out they weren't talking okay well i mean my noise cancelling headphones
38:57it sounded like you must have had noise cancelling microphones in there anyway let me come on to
39:04the flosser yeah i was very confident selling it just because i have it at home and i did want
39:09to
39:10have food there as well which unfortunately i saw that you had some spinach you stick some in your
39:16mouth right and then you get the machine blow on it and then you take it out your mouth with
39:21your
39:22fingers again yeah it was very very very good yeah the water power coming out it was powerful i could
39:28use it to clean my car yeah yeah and then there's the ping pong i like that ping pong thing
39:34i was
39:35thinking of setting it up in here for me and uh to play um you sold 28 of those actually
39:43yeah anyway
39:44there we are so team eclipse now connor you ended up with what i will call the core machine uh
39:52yoga mat
39:53correct boring uh and the shoe dryer unusual item right um so you start off um connor with the um
40:04the core
40:05circus you look like you're having an argument with an ironing board actually yeah i definitely um
40:11look i came in with high energy and passion and i was hoping to shift that by using my energy
40:15then you then you call upon dan he comes in done a few bits and pieces and then went off
40:22we were we were we were doing a couple to work out at one stage i was doing pilates and
40:26dan was doing
40:26some core exercises so yeah i do i do think it was sellable i just probably didn't do myself justice
40:32hmm moving on from there then so you had the um bracelet you looked like you're putting on
40:39handcuffs at one stage a lot you lost the key you're fumbling around dan did very well also
40:48in terms of he was engaging with the customers and saying their names actually saying which
40:51were the key yeah when you that was it was quite clever that when we said thank you for the
40:55order and
40:56all that oh they got some orders did they oh yeah they got some orders for it um i was
41:00extremely proud
41:01of dan for putting himself out of his comfort zone almost and really applying himself he exceeded
41:06probably all of our expectations oh there you go compliments there dan that's very kind compliments
41:11all right um moving on we've got uh kieran on the uh yoga mat yoga mat and that i mean
41:19i've got to tell
41:19you that was painful my friend painful did you say i'll do that one i said i i i would
41:26do that one
41:28um but i also offered to take a high end it looked like a thick doormat to me
41:34it's yeah as yoga mats go it wasn't bad yeah can i just add low sugar i expected that the
41:40boys would
41:40probably pick an item that they were personally really confident selling kieran's great at selling
41:44so i was pretty shocked that he was just going to be selling the mats but then he was confident
41:48he could
41:49sell them in large quantity okay well moving on we went to the most unusual item the shoe dryer
41:58uh which levi uh took the role that's right lord sugar yeah that's correct i mean it's an unusual item
42:04in fact i bought one for my wife for christmas so she's going to be delighted with it i'm sure
42:10when she opens it up so she's going to throw that straight back at you yeah
42:16i mean you're putting shoes on the wrong way around pouring water in trainers
42:21um to be fair lord sugar and um butch cassidy it comes running in at the end uh to help
42:28you out
42:29you know it was quite hard to get me bearings to be fair lord sugar it were in in gallery
42:34it sounded like
42:35like somebody ate the microphone and uh people just shouting and then yeah it would hard to concentrate
42:42try and get a point across whilst getting loading the ear hmm right okay well um it's that time now
42:51let's have a look and see how we did shall we so um thing you should know about tv selling
43:02is that you
43:03may have expectations of what you think you sold but as you know people change their minds right so
43:11i've now got the real confirmed figures from the shopping channel so tim can you tell me the final
43:19results of your team well you mentioned a number of sales have been made but unfortunately not all
43:24of those sales went through including the one high priced item of the core crusher that was almost
43:31sold but somebody pulled out but they still managed to sell 18 products giving them a total sales on the
43:38day of 773 pounds and 82 cents well done everyone right okay good karen same question how did your team
43:47get on well unfortunately not all of their sales went through either um including one of the high priced
43:54headphones um and their highest priced item alan the ring you know they they didn't sell any of those at
44:01all um but they did still manage to sell 40 items across the hour totaling eight hundred and ninety
44:11three pounds and sixty pence right well done team alpha your first time as a project manager and you
44:21pulled it through yeah okay make your way back to the house i'll see you on the next house okay
44:26all right thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you good luck guys
44:33stop oh yes team staff was my best task as well i'm so proud of you guys well
44:41okay well um so go away have a chat amongst yourselves come back and we'll decide who's leaving
44:49okay okay off you go thank you big item made the difference didn't it well no i mean they sold
44:5940
44:59items and they sold 18. hmm oh my god you smashed it hasha cannot tell you how relieved i am
45:11obviously
45:11i've had my two wins a sub team but that's not enough i wanted to step forward and deliver one
45:16more task
45:16yeah and then we're in the final file we just need to get there now
45:23one of the things though that i did say in strategy is like bringing high energy was great but i
45:27think
45:27ultimately what you two failed to do was to harness it in the correct way we sold me
45:32yeah and i accept i didn't you guys only sold two units i had a roll up bit of phone
45:36mate
45:36connor sold nothing kieran didn't sell a lot and he's supposed to be an amazing salesperson and quite
45:41frankly i don't really know what levi is good at other than being a great guy the one person i
45:44will
45:44disappointed in kieran is you i have to say i've worked with you and i thought you're great
45:48when you're presenting i honestly thought you you'd do a bit better just because we found the task for
45:52lack of instruction and no sales kieran loves to deflect and he loves to say he can't do something at
45:57the last moment he said he'd take a high ticket item just as we were heading out the door as
46:00he
46:00sounded enthusiastic about the yoga mat i gave it to him then he said maybe not i can't do yoga
46:04the reality is is that we didn't make enough sales it's down to selling i mean myself and rovner sold
46:09the
46:09most and i know it wasn't loads but we sold high ticketed items and sold multiple of them i would
46:14have
46:14thought with lower ticketed items we could have sold a few more the failure in this task lies with
46:17project manager connor and kieran the polar opposites they don't work well together in it and it showed
46:34in this task yes would you send the candidates in please
46:50well uh you lot lost by 120 pounds which
46:57it's not a lot of money now alpha sold 40 products
47:02and you sold 18 only so connor the core machine that you demonstrated the last time the professional
47:12presenter did it they sold 55 yeah so so my plan with the core circuit yoga was two two target
47:20audience the older or maybe new to fitness and then the more experienced user of fitness like myself
47:25i demonstrated as someone who's maybe avid in fitness and wants to use it to enhance their
47:29workouts maybe after a cardio session i think it implied you had to be very fit to use it yeah
47:33um anybody i'm not surprised you were sweating because you hadn't sold any yeah definitely i did
47:39give it my all it did give my energy and i hold my hands up i'm disappointed as pm that
47:43i didn't sell
47:43one item i mean dan walking in it looked like you called in a bloke from from it you know
47:48now then um
47:50um rothner and dan the bracelets um you only sold three they usually sell 21 in that slot i am
48:02disappointed that we only ended up selling three of them i did really believe in the product and
48:06i hoped it come across if you'd have got the ring and sold three of them yeah like you sold
48:11three of
48:11the bracelets you would have won so we didn't why didn't you get the ring we we thought maybe connor
48:16might
48:16find the ring a bit too expensive he was quite clear about asking for a mid-range item but may
48:21he
48:21do when we know when i asked for numbers in the brainstorm he didn't give any numbers a mid-range
48:25my mid-range could be very different to your mid-range your role was to pick deal of the day
48:29so
48:29what what she's trying to say is that it was left to our own devices to pick what we thought
48:33was the
48:33most sensible item that we could sell on tv but that's what that's why you replaced and you pick the
48:38cheapest yeah um now moving on the yoga mat this company has sold 390 in the last session you sold
48:49six and you say you are a um super salesman exactly i'm a salesman yeah absolutely um we didn't sell
48:58many did you so i did offer to swap the high-end item i was told no were you not
49:03extremely enthusiastic
49:04about the yoga mat i said i could take i said i wasn't mate i'd done the setups i'd done
49:08a few
49:08press-ups exactly i was levi come in to perform on the mat right at the end you should have
49:13sent
49:14him in earlier it were a bit painful to watch so i looked at galleries you were painful to watch
49:18my
49:18friend you were really painful to watch all the way around including the shoe dryer thing i mean
49:24what a bloody product that is and you know what they usually sell 300 in a session 300 i've never
49:31heard of and you sold three i did try to explain about the shoe drying properties but when i had
49:37somebody like team shouting in my ears i had kieran walking towards me they were very distracted for
49:42me well one of the comments from a viewer was that this is a joke i'm flabbergasted i can't watch
49:48it
49:48anymore they tuned out right and i have to say i was flabbergasted also i think it was diabolical
49:55i do believe that um on reflection it is um
50:03it's actually time i've i've won most at task lord sugar well no you didn't win them you didn't
50:08win them you didn't you was on winning teams so so you know what um levi um it is with
50:16uh regret
50:17yeah you're fired okay thank you for the opportunity baroness brady lord sugar tim thank you if you
50:22have a need and earn get in touch with me yeah thank you well best of luck thanks
50:36um connor which two people you're bringing back into this boardroom um based on what i've heard i'm
50:42going to bring back kieran and i'm going to bring back down okay rothan up you can go back to
50:50the
50:50house thank you look good luck okay you three gentlemen step outside and um when you come back in
51:05we'll see who is going to leave okay thank you very much i can see why you made a decision
51:18to exit
51:19levi from the process yeah i mean on this particular task it was the worst tv selling i've ever seen
51:26in
51:26this whole process it was worse painful anyway kieran i mean he's a chirpy chappy he chirped a lot
51:33but he didn't make the sales the important thing on this task was to convert the products to something
51:38that the audience wanted and unfortunately made such a hash of that mat nobody bought anywhere near
51:44the numbers that you said you got from the channel themselves then the man obviously they sold three
51:51bracelets had they instead of chosen the ring and sold three rings they would have won i mean he was
51:56with rothner when they picked it maybe they didn't engage the buyers as well as they could have um
52:02connor well connor's a great talker he emphasized his ability in front of the camera but he wasn't
52:08that good behind the camera unfortunately a lot of this does rest on his shoulders could you stand the
52:16three of them in please so on this task connor you were the project manager you've been a project
52:33manager twice right and regretfully you lost twice why have you brought these two back in then um when i
52:42made my selection i reviewed the entire process that we've made it here um when it comes to kieran
52:47in fairness to kieran kieran has grabbed the bull by the horns and he's really applied himself but at
52:52times he's being called difficult to work with and disruptive so in terms of looking for your next
52:55apprentice i just don't know if he would be the correct candidate everyone works with people
52:59differently correct yeah and that's that's not my decision to make but that's just my perspective
53:04when it came to dan dan was slow to get into the process and maybe didn't apply himself every week
53:09to
53:10the extent that me personally has well i mean this was a selling task um myself i sold 300 pounds
53:15worth
53:15of stuff they sold 60 pounds between both and i think throughout the whole of this process i know
53:19it took me a little while to settle into it but this has been a big learning curve for myself
53:23i've
53:23developed a lot of skills i've learned how to work with people but i wouldn't necessarily usually
53:26work with and i think i've really grown in this process in terms of becoming a better business
53:30business person for yourself or each other hmm kieran super salesman sold six been on the losing
53:38side five times yes lord sugar i've put myself forward for a lot of things i haven't shied away
53:45and i've given everything my all some it's the team effort not just an individual effort so where
53:50i might have small wins the team may not always win hmm right well here we have a dilemma really
53:58i have
53:58to make a decision lord sugar if i may yes i've been project manager twice on the same task
54:06and you won once by a deep arguably a one a win yeah yeah if i stay in this process
54:13i would like
54:14to be the project manager on task 10 to prove to you what i can do if i lose we
54:18shake hands i walk out
54:20all right that's very interesting anybody else want to make that offer uh i don't feel the need to you
54:28can i can if i want to i felt that i over the last eight tasks i don't need another
54:32task to prove myself
54:33i have given myself one you lost you know you lost five even in the losing team five times correct
54:39and every time within those tasks the project manager has usually always had a very specific
54:43role that they've wanted me to excel in and at numerous times within this process i have excelled
54:47i don't need a tenth task to beg you to to take me you don't i don't i don't think
54:53i do what about you
54:54dan i feel like over the past nine tasks i've really kind of proven myself in many different ways
55:00um i i do believe that ultimately you've got to decide who you want to go into business with
55:04i know that i've only ever worked for myself i'm an entrepreneur through and through that's all i
55:08know and the industry that i'm in i know it so well so it's whether you think there's great potential
55:13with my business that i've got and if it's something you want to join me on the journey with
55:15hmm i have observed you over the past nine weeks um
55:25dan
