- Business: High heels that can be turned into flats
- Ask:Â $500,000 for 5% equity

Haley brought her company, Pashion Footwear, to
In just the first year of business, she amassed $800,000 in sales. However, due to a 24% return rate, the company only neted $500,000 in sales during that time.
Haley then shares that the average return rate in the footwear industry is around 20% due to sizing issues. Further, all of her sales are online, because they don’t have a retail store.
Unfortunately, funds are running out. With only around $300,000 left in the bank, and a $90,000 a month burn rate, Haley said that Pashion Footwear will only make it a few more months if she doesn’t leave with a deal.
Haley also shared that she has raised a total of $2.5 million for Pashion Footwear all on convertible notes. She shared that if those notes converted and she got a deal with the sharks for her 5% ask, she’d own 45% of the company.
Barbara Corcoran, Lori Greiner, and Mark Cuban felt like the business wasn’t in a great place for an investor right now, so they dropped out.
Guest shark Kendra Scott wasn’t sold on the product and decided that the deal wasn’t for her.
