Promotional article, thin on sources. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 11:48, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete COI problems, promotional. May have a great product, but this startup firm is is not notable at this time. Ohiostandard (talk) 12:16, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

I am the editor. This article is supposed to be informational for business school students interested in business plan competitions. This company was one of the few that succeeded in the B Plan contests on their own - no Professor who had worked for 10 years developing the product, no venture capitalists writing the B Plan for them. I am mentoring several teams and wanted to have 1 general resource where anyone can go for a glimpse into what can make a business plan contest entrant successful - What was the idea? What are the founders backgrounds? What did the judges think? Someone interested in promoting the company added a few sentences promoting the company that we since edited. Other than that, I don't see why this would be deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ahertzy (talk • contribs) 19:28, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
 * You also appear to be Alex Herzlinger, one of the company founders mentioned in this article. I would commend you for the attempt to present a balanced article, but the company doesn't seem to meet WP:CORP, and the intentions in creating this article (information for business school students as a guide for winning the competition) don't fit with the goals of this project (creating a comprehensive online encyclopedia). --  At am a  頭 20:46, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete – Not notable as far as I can tell. Most of the refs are primary sources or opinion pieces. Rees11 (talk) 21:36, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
