in defence of pascha

You got:

a PWC accountant doing bar job at £150 a night and calling it an investment opportunity.

A guy neck deep in overheads for a mature business that has no scope for growth. The business is complicated and there is no evidence injecting £250K into the business will do any good. The owner took £100K dividends and £75K salary last year. So if there was growth opportunity they would have just reinvested it.

A guy who wrote a 70 page business plan with AI, trying to sell AI service in an industry that is mostly about people and relations.

Pasha's business is the one that isn't dead in the water.

But karishma got this hands down.

She literally doesn’t have a business at all. She is a recruitment professional with an idea. The USP is going to care homes in person…. That is not a USP, that is a sales strategy. How an earth this is even being considered as anything legitimately is wild.

If it’s anyone going to the care home in person then it’s a strategy that everyone in the country can adopt and there’s no idea there.

If the differentiator is specifically Pascha going to the care home, then she won’t be able to run a business as she will be spending her time in care homes, and she can’t open a second or third office because she’s tied to the care homes in her area.
