Mural Painter Update

  • Entrepreneur: Emily Strauss
  • Business: Hand-painted signs and promo agency
  • Ask: $300,000 for 15% equity
  • Result: $100,000 cash and  a$200,000 line of credit for 15% equity
  • Shark: Barbara Corcoran

Mural Painter started as a word-of-mouth business. Founder Emily Strauss contracted Lyme Disease shortly after, which made it a struggle to continue the company. Now, Mural Painter is a fully realized artist agency that connects mural painters with companies that need paintings and advertising.

Emily wanted to expand her business to more cities and create a better dispatching system to match companies with artists. During the year of filming, Mural Painter projected about $800,000 in sales.

Mark Cuban was the first to go out because he didn’t see how it would scale. Daymond John thought there would be a high turnover rate because of the artists, so he went out too.

Kevin O’Leary offered $300,000 for 35% equity. As a result, Lori dropped out because it wasn’t right for her. At the same time, Barbara Corcoran offered $100,000 as cash and $200,000 as a line of credit for 15% equity. Barbara also offered some great advice about how she could thrive.

Ultimately, Emily chose to accept Barbara’s deal. Where is she now? Find out in our Shark Tank Mural Painter update.
