I sometimes find myself yelling at the TV\u2026 lol!<\/p>\n<p>And I always wonder why this happens. How can they get stumped?<\/p>\n<p>After all, it\u2019s easy for them to be prepared and to study what they need to know. Think about it\u2026 <em><strong>Shark Tank<\/strong><\/em> is in its 12th season. If there were only 10 episodes per season (and there are more than 10), that means there are 120 hours of study available.<\/p>\n<p>Most people don\u2019t prepare like they should.<\/p>\n<p>Fran did\u2026 and it showed.<\/p>\n<p>Fran didn\u2019t once get stumped or shaken. Not one time did she hesitate with an answer.<\/p>\n<p>As a matter of fact, when Mark Cuban told Fran she didn\u2019t have a choice, her response was classic. She said, <strong>\u201cI always have a choice.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mike drop\u2026 Boom!<\/p>\n<p>Fran has watched every episode of <strong><em>Shark Tank<\/em> \u2013 every single one<\/strong>. Most more than once.<\/p>\n<p>Being on <em><strong>Shark Tank<\/strong><\/em> is a long process. It literally takes 4-6 months.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why would you leave anything to chance<\/strong> when so much is on the line?<\/p>\n<p>And with the internet and all that is available with social media, it\u2019s easy to research the Sharks who might be on your panel.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And it\u2019s free!<\/strong> All it costs you is some time!<\/p>\n<p>How big of an advantage is it to know what kinds of things each person might ask? Or what their interests are?<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a chance to really <strong>target your presentation<\/strong>, responses and pretty much everything you do in the Tank!<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s all <strong>available at your fingertips<\/strong>\u2026 at the end of your keyboard.<\/p>\n<p>Not being prepared for the Tank just shows laziness.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re willing to be lazy with this kind of opportunity, especially when it\u2019s so easy to get the information, then you don\u2019t deserve a deal.<\/p>\n<p>Even if you don\u2019t get a deal, being on <em><strong>Shark Tank<\/strong><\/em> is a big boost for your business.<\/p>\n<p>As with many things, <strong>there\u2019s no excuse to not be prepared.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Fran was prepared!
