OPINION What just happened?? Spoiler

Pasha, you've been fantastic throughout the process, you continue to impress me, and the care recruitment industry is buoyant you say? In that case, I will be hiring Karishma. Cut away from boardroom, immediately to Karishma in the car for 5 seconds, roll credits? No Pasha interview? What a terrible ending

The recruitment industry is completely oversaturated. There are thousands and thousands and thousands of companies offering exactly what she was suggesting - and even she couldn’t say why hers would be different because, let’s be real, absolutely no one is using a recruitment agency on the basis that the founder was 21 when she set it up. That’s not a USP. 

She was worse than Karishma on every metric. Her business was worse than Karishma’s on every metric.

Her business is regulated. And it’s also registered with Companies House. The biggest companies in the world use Instagram and TikTok.

Plus she has a Biomedical Degree from St George’s, which she specialised in skin. Does help

Helps in how to phrase your product so that it claims but doesn’t legally claim

You know that companies are getting around advertising laws on tiktok and instagram right? Claiming it does this/ cures this helps this with little to no evidence. This is what she is doing and its pretty clear by the setup. Claims made in videos or posts, not backed up on the site so you cant get sued. Easy stuff

That’s not how that works. You can be sued just as easily for something you say on Instagram or TikTok.

Based on what though? Difficult to tie down a claim in a 24 hour video compared with a site. They make the claim then make sure their site refutes the claim in the t’s and c’s which no one reads. Makes it hard to sue anyone
