What happened at the Shark Tank?
The co-founders enter the shark tank offering 7.5% of equity for $75,000. Rashid has started presenting the importance of their product by showing the color mismatch of typical skin bandages on his skin.
After Rashid’s presentation, the judges examined the color-toned bandages. Then Mr. Wonderful and Daymond become curious about the reasons that limit large-scale organizations from providing the same product.
Discussion drives to sales stats. Intisar stated their sales boosted due to the ‘Black Lives Matter theme‘ and budget constraints they faced to gain inventory for consistent sales.
The problem that Browndages solves,
“Representation is about demanding that we’ve all seen and affirming that all lives matter.”
As per the stats, the monthly sales of the company are $7,500-$10,000. Rashid and Intisar get around $2.5-$3.3 from selling a single unit.
For Robert, the scale of the company is too massive. He says ‘I’m Out.
Lori invites Mark and Daymond and offers a collaborative offer to Rashid and Intisar, 30% equity for $100,000.
Lori, Mark, and Daymond offer: $100,000 for 30% equity and all three sharks agree to Rashid’s counter offer: 25% equity for $100,000 plus a credit line of 75 grand.
Mark Cuban, who owns the NBA Dallas Mavericks, even promised to have the Mavericks distribute and wear the bandages.
