The Most Laid Back Pitch in Den History? | Dragons’ Den

Teirnan Mccorkell sought out the investment from DIY-loving Deborah Meaden to help transform his pipe fitting tool into a must-have for all tradesmen and home renovation fans. Until Pipe Easy, there was no tool on the market that enabled you to cut exactly the diameter of the pipe out of a surface making for a tidy look.

An international sensation, Dragon's Den features entrepreneurs pitching for investment in the Den from our Dragons, five venture capitalists willing to invest their own money in exchange for equity.

He's not laid back, he's just not bullshitting. He knows his product, he knows his limits, his presentation was clear and to the point, and he is 100% honest about all of it. Awesome. Wish the guy all the luck in the world.

"Eeh, nope. No, won't waste your time. Sounds good. Yeah, I'll take the offa."

Legend

they're tryna be all dramatic as they turn him down, and hes like "ok, yeah." haha i love it.

He's so confident because this tool is literally in response the normal way you fit pipes. The tool is just a combination of all of the normal steps to locate the drilling location condensed into a single setup, of course it's useful and of course people would want it. The interesting thing is, its not just tradesmen or just DIY. ANYbody fitting tile or really any surface around pipes could pick it up and use it.

He’s defo pitched this to his mates a couple of times in the local pub on a Tuesday evening after work

[kevinprince]

Guy looks like he's walked out the pub and straight into the den 🤣 love his character

“My husband pays people to do the tiles in our home” -the millionaire who hasn’t changed a light bulb.

[madiisaccount]

As someone who tiled a bathroom and miscalculated the position of the pipe hole on 3 separate tiles (basically ruining them), this is bloody brilliant

She slammed the product at the start to deceive the other dragons then swooped in with an offer after everyone else pulled out. Respect the hustle.

[GodotOfficial]

This guy is so laidback that I’m surprised he didn’t do this pitch with a pint in his hand

[jairoj.ninoperez]

The strange case of the guy who knows what he doesn’t know and won’t BS to hide it. Love it.

[Gigadanopoly]

As a former tradesman and current business owner, these investors don’t know what they are talking about. They focused too much on people not wanting to diy because it’s hard. Yeah, that’s the point of his product. To not make it hard.

[Samj-vvli]

Nice to see an honest hard working tradesman bloke come into the den and get a deal!

[charliemaynard]

“We get tilers in to do our tiling” well we aren’t all millionaires are we

[Noontide]

Good guy, not hiding anything. That's why he's calm, cause he's honest.

[robkirkham]

I do wonder about the vision of the dragons sometimes.
As a tradesman anything like this that saves time, ensures a perfect job every time and is cheap and easy to throw in the tool box. I would probably buy it.

[Amor_fati.Memento_Mori]

He won in life. He doesn't take things personally and has that stoic like character going for him. Brilliant.

[Zamzinho]

He’s just a likeable chap ain’t he lol. No BS no lies no coating in candy.

[InvictusByz]

"What DIYer is going to have those tools???"
Lady, those tools came in the big box of assorted bits I got for a power drill. I think Sara just thinks her husband is better at DIY than he is.

[rastaman]

The fact they think pencils aren’t used on sites just says everything we need to know
