LOVE HOW THE SNAKE SOUND APPEARS WHEN THE CAMERA ZOOMES TO THE BALD GUY

[tech4156]

ok 9% seems steep but if u think abt it those restaurants can save on leaflets n billboards

[limoncitodf]

They never explained why they need 200 000 dlls if they had already the site done and the lease with the restaurants... I think its hard some restaurants want to pay comissions for they delivery of 9 percent... maybe adding adds could be a better way to finance the website...

[littleripper333]

Yea I just went to the website and typed in my street address and it said it wasn't valid. Also i live in a major city and there wasn't much to choose from. I wouldn't recommend this site at its current stage.

[littleripper333]

This idea was presented on the UK version and rejected lol

[Love4SK]

@littleripper333 , makes sense, u  really cant find any decent food in the UK

[imcool1347]

good presentation other then that the kid who was talking most of the time was a huge faggot

[kawola17]

This type of business model is very hard to execute. The restaurant business is brutal enough, and to take a percent off the top. Yikes. In addition, I think it's very hard to have a customer come to the site. Why not just order directly?

[izaatmusic]

GrubWorldwide! 

[brentpurt]

grub canada rules, i use it all the time

[dmitriyli1]

I wonder if Brett is still on this deal....

[gagant1]

I think GrubCanada traffic really tells the story. 25k monthly uniques. I can only believe them making money if their conversion rates are astronomical.

And i think someone mentioned here, this idea is very easy to replicate and this makes it competitive. If i can replicate groupon business, then on line take out is many many times easier to replicate :)

I'm a second year at the University of Toronto and you have NO IDEA how many times when students in our res (including me) is up late studying or coming home from a party and is STARVING for food. Nearly nothing opens past midnight and I'm right in the center of downtown Toronto! To the guys operating this website, I really think you are going to be very successful, if you give it enough advertisement. And to Kevin, I think you missed out on a very good deal.

[kawola17]

@summergirl8830 Lol yea right. I see variations of this company several times. The model just doesn't make sense for them to be profitable. 

[sanzzz222]

voice fail at 0.40 lol

[ranavarma]

rip off of grubhub.com

[2SixGraders]

@ranavarma

This is for Canada! Jesus you people do not think at all.

[MisterMielke]

No differnet than Hungry House in the UK Dragons Den!

[adityamodernite]

Slick.

[mit871chell]

How they should have done it with the boston pizza guy, is told him, that they would put his restaurant as exclusive for pizza/pasta oriented, to increase the revenue generated by the franchise, which would in turn generate more money for him.

[allthewine]

Ripped off Hungry House.

[amused100]

@allthewine Hungry house wasn't a rip off?

[shadgear]

The only problem i have with this business is that it can be easily replicated, competition will be very fierce.

[goosemunky]

@shadgear not if they copyright the idea and everything, plus if it were replicated they could potentially sue

[MistaMajani]

@shadgear that's the problem with all online business. Within a year of Facebook's release, you had people offering to make Facebook clones for less than 100$, same with Groupon. However, that doesn't mean that you can't dominate whatever space you get into. With a proper web strategy, you can get ahead of the pack

[darkknightbob101]

that dlivery dude is a worker from the show. dont quite konw why hes in there.

[dayyyyyyvid]

Checked out the site after I saw it on the show, a lot of restaurants in my area. Love it

[wilkjames]
