All Philler, no Killer - The Apprentice Thread Three

[ArticSaviour]

New thread for tonight as we have nearly reached the end of Thread Two

This is an interesting story on the same website. Looks like Phil just wants a bail out??

Well you wouldn’t put a cheese spread on a fancy cheese board. A soft cheese sure but not a spread. However, that was a very narrow reading of luxury spread imo

they do seem to come up with some petty criticisms sometimes. I thought eBnB was quite good. I really don’t think younger people expect a breakfast when they read that and more likely to associate with airBnB. Also, things like the curry flavour being on the side and not front of the box. Not great but do people really pick a new product up and not have a look at it properly? And given the flavour it was probably best it wasn’t on the from so people would dismiss it straight away!!!

It was meant to be a video people would want to share that would go viral. Surely Tre would have been the obvious choice for that.

But then, I’m still annoyed Flo got off Scot free after being the one to veto putting the cereal bowl on the cereal

That video would never have gone viral, even if Yre had been in it. There's no "hook", nothing to copy/replicate, no catchy jingle/tune/phrase

I thought Lord Sugar was pretty harsh on Foluso. Yes, the branding and video weren't brilliant but the main criticism from the potential buyers seemed to be that no one liked the curry flavour because the branding and video on the other team was pretty shite too. Then he just seemed to announce that it was all about the branding and she was ushered out.

Then the shit flavour didn't really come up after that, it was about his crappy business idea that got Steve kicked off. This week just really felt like he knew who he wanted as the final five and was going to make sure that's what happened.

Oh I meant they should’ve done a better video too. But I just don’t get why they put Flo in it

I have a feeling there might have been an offscreen direction not to - Suralan saying the team couldn't keep relying on Tre the professional to be the one on camera and someone else should step up.

I like the interview episode. Mainly because of Claude!

That IS interesting - because wasn't this series actually filmed in late 2022?

Although I did LOL at Phil being quoted saying “Building my business over the years is a succession of failures,” he explained.

“Almost everything I’ve done for the first time failed in one way or another.

Because that sums up his Apprentice story for sure.

I think it looks like the company was restructured last year? You can see that the share structure was changed. That could explain the big admin costs.

Hmm. Hope that's not a spoiler.

Rachel's business is a gym: Rachel Woolford: How The Apprentice star started her own gym right in the middle of Covid - The 24/7 Project (24-7-project.com)

Buckle up, it’s nearly time!

Let's all watch Phil give completely shite interviews but still end up in the last two ..

Evening all.
Is this the thread?

It is. I really hope they get a good going over tonight

I dont suppose Suralan will invest in a gym two years in a row.

Nice shot down Rachel's top there

Yes, I thought that was a bit unnecessary!

What is Tre's business?

I hope they are not going to give a shot of Phil's package

Yes, who were the two finalists last year? I vaguely remember.

I’m not entirely clear on either his business or Paul’s

Good point , what is Tre's business plan?

Evening all

Do they normally do this sort of pre amable of making and doing things like this
