What if we replace Sharks with new social media influencers?
What if we replaced the Sharks with social media influencers? Would the show turn into a live-streamed spectacle full of memes and catchphrases like “OMG, period!” from Gen Z influencers? Would the focus shift to who can create the best viral content rather than sound business strategies? How do you think this change would affect the pitches and investment decisions?

OMG, imagine them pitching with TikTok dances! 🤣 ‘I like your product, but can it do the Renegade?’ #CringeFest2024

Great, more airheads pretending to know business. What’s next? Influencer-only stock market?

Perfect. Let’s swap seasoned investors for people who rate things with emojis. Because, who needs financial insight when you can get a ‘🔥’ instead?

Right, because nothing says ‘successful business’ like knowing the latest TikTok trends. eye roll

Indeed, The influencer’s role could be to amplify the brand’s reach post-investment, but the foundational business advice must come from experts

It would also depend on which influencers are chosen. Some are savvy businesspeople themselves.

LOL, imagine influencers saying ‘Let me influence you with my offer!’ 🤣 This could be the most hilarious episode ever. #SharkInfluencers

It would definitely be a shift towards a more entertainment-focused format. However, it might also democratize the process, making it more accessible to a wider audience who follow these influencers.

Can we talk about the elephant in the room? These influencers barely know what ROI stands for, let alone how to achieve it.

I bet they’d ask for equity in followers instead of actual stakes in the company. ‘Give me 10% of your Instagram followers, and we have a deal!

Final thought If they ever do this, someone please make sure there’s a meme generator on set! 😂 #ContentGold
