What Happened to Make My Summer After Dragons’ Den?
Make My Summer appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2010, Series 8 Episode 2. The business was a summer camp recruitment website. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Jacqueline Cole walked into the Den in 2010 with a summer camp recruitment website. They were asking for £75,000.
Despite their best efforts, the pitch didn’t convince the Dragons to open their wallets.
The Deal
No deal was made. The Dragons weren’t persuaded to invest, and Jacqueline Cole left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Make My Summer is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show in 2010, the business has now been trading for over a decade — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.
Is Make My Summer Still Available?
Yes. Vise Mental Fitness Ltd appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
