She explained how she started Gladiator Lacrosse with a $30,000 loan from her entrepreneur parents at twelve years old. By the time she appeared in the tank she’d already paid her loan back and made over $300,000 in sales.
Kevin O’Leary was interested in market size to which Rachel explained that the market went well above $100 million, and she planned to dominate the market by expanding her product line.
Rachel already had one employee and was looking for an investment to put money into marketing, online sales, and more employees.
Kevin was not convinced she could put all the time needed into running a business at her age. He went out because he thought it would turn out to be just a hobby for her.
Mark Cuban was impressed by her achievements but had no idea about lacrosse so he went out. Robert Herjavec went out because he didn’t think Rachel needed an investor.
Daymond went out because he didn’t think he could add value to her business for the equity involved.
Lori Greiner offered Rachel plenty of advice, but she didn’t know about the world of lacrosse and didn’t think she could add value either. She went out.
