Founders of GoGo Gear, Arlene Battishill and Desiree Estrada rode into the tank, and making quite the Shark Tank entrance. Their protective, yet fashionable motorcycle gear company is ultimately needing an investment.

After losing their corporate jobs, the ladies eventually joined forces to create the line. Despite not having a background in fashion, the business duo learned quickly to make things happen.

Robert Herjavec tried out one of the options, with Barbara Corcoran noting that the gear actually looked pretty good. The ladies told the sharks they’d only been in business for a year, and had already made $172,000 in sales.

Further, they have their products in twenty-five retail stores. Mark Cuban wanted to know why he should trust them with his money.

Arlene and Desiree said they were going to distribute in Europe, but Mark thought that was a terrible idea and that the business wouldn’t thrive with them leaving to another continent.

The business duo admitted that they’d made mistakes, but that they’d learned from them.

Robert asked Daymond John what he thought, as the fashion guy, and Daymond said he was taken aback by the high valuation, especially with nothing proprietary to the business. Kevin O’Leary said they made a huge tactical error with the valuation and went out.

The business duo seemed to not have a grasp on the valuation either, which made Robert feel less confident. The ladies changed their ask to $300,000 for 38% equity.

Mark was overall not impressed with their lack of strategic know-how. He ultimately went out for this reason.

Barbara went out because of their optimism and ingenuity. Robert didn’t have faith in their focus and also went out.

Only Daymond was left in play. Desiree said they were going to raise the equity, but needed to talk about it in private.

When they returned, they once again changed their ask to $300,000 for 50% equity. Daymond said he’d bring Robert in because of his connections to motorcycle shops.

Robert wanted more equity. They offered 55%, but Robert said it wasn’t enough.

Then, Daymond said he’d agree to it, if Robert would join, however Robert refused.

Arlene then offered 65% equity, but Robert ultimately went out.

At this point Daymond agreed to do the deal of $300,000 for 65% equity, and the ladies accepted.

Do you think this worked out following Shark Tank? Keep reading our GoGo Gear update to see what happened next.

Our GoGo Gear update reveals that despite the harsh criticisms from the other sharks, the company managed to survive despite the recession, and also despite the pandemic.

However, Daymond did not end up investing after all. Although, he did eventually became one of their advisors.

The business is still operating, and is making just over $7 million per year.
