Stupid, random assumption. Maybe he also just got another partner or learned to do it himself after them not accepting his offer. There is 0 evidence of him doing for "the exposure", which is honestly rather bad press for any product in that show and its ignorant jury.

Even viewers know at that valuation, getting a shark on board for less than 10% or 5%/royalty deal, wasn't going to happen. These replies understand he's got his $3.5 million in the bank ready to fulfill all the orders that come in after his infomercial. The guy's pretty slick, take a second look at what else he's doing. Companies go into the Shark tank because they need help, capital, funding. He's lazy. the only thing he lacked was exposure - and he got it for free, as most of you saw. The money in his bank account is giving him his valuation - his profit margin is terrible. There's nothing proprietary about his product. He is not innovative, unique nor special. that's why he's not touching the cash... It's keeping him solvent on paper. That's his entire value. He's demonstrated that his marketing skills stink. He doesn't have a patent. Once he spends that 3.5 million, he only gets 5% back? There you go... That's his true valuation. $175,000. The more he has, the more he can slime out of other investors. His reputation is not being built on his profit margin or his ability to sell quality blankets.. he's relying on his ability to skank money out of people and put it in the bank.. that's the most valuation of his company. Because his lack of marketing skills only brings back 5%. Hollow fiber fill sleeping bag blankets don't cost a hundred bucks. Bull crap. The zippers, hardware, sewing machines and labor because of them, cost the most on fiberfill sleeping bags. He's greasy.

Mark was right. He was just there for exposure. He could do 10% if he wanted to. That's some shady trick right there. You could literally see the scam on his face.

[@chandrakant1479]

Smart guy. He got the exposure and was not desperate for a deal.

[@lorenzop9914]

The most complex episode ever watched since now. So many different offers, in my opinion, the most complex the offer become the less is appealing. Have to rewatch it again to grasp everything.

[@a.g4521]

Come on guys, they are offering him a loan + royalty + pretty significant equity! That’s not fair for him or his business. I’m glad he got the exposure he came for without cutting a deal.

[@jn1dotcom]

whoever wrote the description " looking in $600 for 4%!" needs to relook at it again. Cheapest best deal ever !!! 😆🤣😂 im in !

He came here for exposure and he got it!

Besides the fact that he was milking for shark tank exposure, I like the way this guy presented himself during the pitch

[@queenofhorror7600]

First mark is a genius. He can always tell when someone is there just for the publicity. Second, yes it’s a smart business move as an entrepreneur to get on the show for the exposure. However, the reason it’s upsetting is bc it’s taking a spot from someone else who maybe sold their house, sold all their belongings and could really use a shark. That’s where ethics comes into play on this like they’re wasting air time for exposure that could’ve went to someone who really needed the investment

[@josephlloyd9636]

I really appreciate his honesty & work ethic. But he should have taken Damon and guest shark's offer . Would been awesome deal for him !! 🤪🤞

[@HalferLandPerformance]

People don't realize going on the show is NOT FREE. My old company EcoBorder Landscape Edging were going to go on there. The owner and myself reviewed the contract and ABC/NBC (Forgot the actual Parent company that owns the show) takes 3-5% of your company to just go on the show, whether you get a deal or NOT!

[@walte153]

I read a while back that Mark Cuban and some of the other sharks complained about those payments. The required payments supposedly were eliminated.

[@sushio4357]

@@walte153 its not. You don't give equity anymore, you still need to pay a lotta cash.

Should have taken the deal with the two sharks. Grow, make more money and all is happy. They can probably also get his costs down and increase profits.

In addition to the ‘stuck in car on ice cold night’ story: ALWAYS have a few TEA LIGHTS in your CAR!!! You can WARM UP a car with just 2(!) of them. So throw a bunch of them (and a lighter!!!) in your car and always have them with you!!!

One hundred dollars for a recycled plastic blanket?! I recently got a pure cotton blanket for £30.

[@sarehgolestaneh5393]

Ok but cotton is not necessarily better specially in this case, plastic is much lighter and more durable and doesn't absorb water and its doesn't catch fiber. Also you can add many properties to polyester fibers. So for this specific usage, plastic is actually better choice.

[@Rowanda7361]

Try sleeping in 5 degree weather with a cotton blanket. You will freeze and get sick. Cotton doesnt retain heat, it is for keeping you cool and absorbing your sweat.
