|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Raisa Turner | Abundant Faith N Joy | 4 | 4 | 5 | 5 | 4 | 4 | 26 | Business operations should be on point. Also, share your vision, make sure your vision is 3, 5, 10 years, and its measurable, and attainable. Then share how you want to get there, and how you will be held accountable. |
| Candice Price | Abundant Faith N Joy | 5 | 5 | 5 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 27 | You and the girl did an exceptional job today! Do not be afraid to grow! |
| Kiley Phelps | Abundant Faith N Joy | 4 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 4 | 24 | This was a great presentation! I loved having the daughters be involved. It was a great breakdown of the financials. What does revenue look like if you were to expand outside of your home? I know capacity might be challenging/but is that something you want to do? I think one of your biggest competitive advantages is the lower costs, highlight this. When you are doing a low cost provider strategy, you need to sell in volumes to earn a profit. |
| Jim Reiff | Abundant Faith N Joy | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 24 | Look at how to scale quicker. Remember to pay appropriately for the risk you are taking as an entrepreneur. |

| Kiley Phelps | AFROMAHA LLC | 4 | 3 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 23 | I loved the video as the introduction! The financials were hard to see on the screen - maybe a table view of annual totals for the year would make it easier to view Explain the revenue make up (difference between tickets sales, sponsorships, vendors) Consider focusing on breaking down one market's financials (Omaha?) for a clearer understanding. |
| Raisa Turner | AFROMAHA LLC | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 30 | For the financial projections, add a slide to the deck presentation that shows how you plan to keep all the sources of marketing to match your projections. Take into account losses. |
| Nina Austin | AFROMAHA LLC | 5 | 5 | 5 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 27 | Cost of attendance, cost of vendors, how do you compete with other festivals in Omaha. |

| Breonna Kellogg | AFROMAHA LLC | 5 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 4 | 24 | You moved really fast with switching the slides, hard to see the slides. When presenting keep eye contact with minimal times looking at the slides. Break down your financials. |
| Fatou Sogoyou | AFROMAHA LLC | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 24 | Great presentation, nice slides, would like to see more details on the revenue model, add in vendors stream of income not just sponsor and tickets... break down the different type - food, service based, connectors etc... impact on the community etc? Presenter could slow down a little bit.... Presenter could prepare more and provide more details on financial, at times had trouble providing numbers when judge asked questions... also expansion is good but focus on your WHY! Good job overall. |
| Kiley Phelps | D ATKINS ENTERPRISES LLC DBA GIMME THE SCOOP | 4 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 22 | Great job to the siblings for stepping up and doing a great job with the pitch. Make sure the pictures are clear and not blurry to really highlight your product well What are the seasonal trends? Does revenue drop in the winter, if yes, what does that look like? |
| Jim Reiff | D ATKINS ENTERPRISES LLC DBA GIMME THE SCOOP | 3 | 3 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 22 | Double check financial projections for marginal costs as scoops increase. How can this increase Long term owner salary over time. |

| Kiley Phelps | Gamble Tech Firm | 4 | 5 | 5 | 3 | 4 | 4 | 25 | That introduction was amazing! It was also good conclusion to bring everything back together Try not to read off the slides Mention your pricing in the presentation, it was a little confusing to understand how you will get revenue. Great idea - need to figure out preventing competition/people getting connected to mentees and leaving the app. |
| Raisa Turner | Gamble Tech Firm | 4 | 4 | 5 | 5 | 4 | 4 | 26 | Share success of the business. Create a business plan that will retain the coaches and grow the business. |
| Jim Reiff | Gamble Tech Firm | 4 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 4 | 4 | 27 | Consider wording- mentor vs coach. Is there a space for connecting volunteer mentors with mentees? |
| Nina Austin | Gamble Tech Firm | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 4 | 29 | Great concept, maybe focus on coaching instead of mentoring. |
| Candice Price | Gamble Tech Firm | 5 | 4 | 4 | 5 | 5 | 4 | 27 | Excellent and exciting concept. Looking forward to seeing it's growth. Consider additional options for revenue opportunities, including minimal costs to mentees. |
