Kevin O’Leary wanted to know whether the company had any sales, and the couple shared that they already had $300,000 in sales at the time of filming. Looking ahead, they would likely reach $510,000 by the end of that year. A single unit costs $29.00 to make and sells for $99.00.
Mark Cuban admitted that he had a lot of respect for the entrepreneurs, but it wasn’t a fit for him as an investor so he dropped out. Kevin was interested however and made an offer of $75,000, in exchange for a $10.00 royalty until he makes three times his money back. In addition to the royalty, he wanted 2.5% equity. Robert Herjavec made the exact same deal as Kevin, but he only wanted to make twice his money back. Lori Greiner decided to make an offer of $150,000 in exchange for a $5.00 royalty until she’s paid back and wanted 5% equity.
Barbara Corcoran offered the couple $75,000 for 20% equity.
