00:00Welcome to the elevator.
00:03So I'm sure you know this.
00:04It's the weekly ads that appear in your mailbox all the time.
00:06We take this content and we turn it into ads for every local store of that retailer.
00:10We take all the inventory for the car dealers and we turn them into ads,
00:13running on TV, running on social media, digital.
00:16I'm looking at raising $3 million at a valuation of $30 million
00:20and I'm here to talk to you guys about how you can be part of this ride
00:23at what amounts to zero cost to any of you.
00:31That was intriguing.
00:33He's a serial entrepreneur that's going to give us equity for free?
00:38Ish.
00:39I like his confidence.
00:40I didn't actually get what his business is, did you?
00:42Maybe he's trying to replace or upend the advertising business?
00:45I look for clarity in pitches and I didn't hear it that time.
00:49You guys ready to vote?
00:51Let's do it.
00:53Approved.
00:54I'll be transparent.
00:55I was really trying to see what the free deal was all about
00:58and if I was right in the midst of about to write a $2 million check
01:01for advertising for social media for one of my companies,
01:04you're right, it's a no-brainer.
01:06I just swing that over to you and it goes right back to them.
01:08Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to do that.
01:10I'm afraid I have to pass.
01:11I appreciate it. Thank you, Monk.
01:13I'm looking at the businesses that you have onboarded to this point.
01:17I also see the world of artificial intelligence.
01:20I'm not sure if you can build it as fast as they can
01:23and so for that reason, I'm going to have to pass.
01:26I appreciate that and thank you.
01:28I actually like what you're doing.
01:30The valuation is steep.
01:32I would be willing to invest $200K at the previous valuation of $20 million.
01:38Okay, I will take what you offer, but I'm going to throw in a kicker anyway
01:41just to prove it for you.
01:42I love that. If you want to throw in more, throw in the steak knives.
01:45I said there was going to be something for free.
01:46I guess he is taking the deal.
01:47I wondered if he was or not.
01:49Great to partner together, yes.
01:50Thank you, Monk. I appreciate it, mate.
01:52Thank you, Donnie. Very, very cool. Thank you, mate.
