Shark Tank Plunge Update

  • Entrepreneurs: Michael Garrett and Ryan Duey
  • Business: “Cold plunge” tubs
  • Ask: $1.2 million for 5% equity
  • Result: $1.2 million cash and a $1.2 million loan for 12% equity
  • Shark: Robert Herjavec

Entrepreneurs Michael Garrett and Ryan Duey took the plunge together when they started their business, Plunge. Plunge is a series of cold plunge tubs that allow you to adjust your ice bath to the perfect temperature.

This wellness routine has a lot of great benefits, and Michael and Ryan talk about them at length during their presentation.

With clean, filtered water and no need to haul 40 pounds of ice back to your tub, Plunge presents the perfect solution for those looking for this type of therapy. Surprisingly, there is a large demand for this niche product.

At the time of filming, Plunge was just one year old and boasted $4.9 million in sales. Undoubtedly, these impressive numbers make the sharks want to jump right into a deal with the duo.

At first, Kevin O’Leary has a problem with the high valuation, but he still makes an offer: $1.2 million for 18% equity.

Lori Greiner, on the other hand, goes out because it isn’t right for her.

After that, Barbara Corcoran offers $1.2 million for 20%, with half as a loan or line of credit. Their problems, she thinks, are about cash flow.

After Barbara states her case, Robert Herjavec and Mark Cuban are the next to make offers.

Without delay, Robert offers $2.4 million total, with $1.2 million for 15% equity and $1.2 million as a loan.

Following this, Mark Cuban offers $1.2 million for 15% equity with included funding for all purchase orders.

With so much interest from the sharks, Michael and Ryan have a tough choice to make.

Eventually, they make a counteroffer to Robert at 10% equity, but the lowest he will go is 12%. They agree to the terms, and as a result, they land a deal with Robert.

So, how has the company been doing since securing the largest Shark Tank deal of 2022? Let’s find out with a Plunge update!

During our Plunge update research, we discovered that Plunge offers commercial tubs and a pro version along with the original Plunge featured on the show.

The company has also added a sauna to its lineup as well as various accessories, all available from the Plunge website.

In addition to the exposure from appearing on Shark Tank, the company also has a team of celebrity influencers who help spread the word about the benefits of the cold plunge.

As far as sales go, Plunge is definitely on the rise. In an interview with Hampton Insider, Ryan revealed that the company is on track to do $80 million in sales by the end of 2023 and is shipping around 2,000 units per month.

Together with rapid growth and incredible sales numbers, the company has found its footing after Shark Tank. Without a doubt, Robert’s help is certain to propel Plunge to even greater heights, and we can’t wait to see what the next Plunge update reveals.
