    This was fascinating to watch. They come in all high-energy and cutesy with their presentation, but when it's time to talk business their tone immediately shifts gears to a cool confidence and razor-sharp specificity that the sharks can immediately feel. There's a lot you can learn from this show not just about business but about communication, power, and human nature.

    This was one of the best Shark Tank negotiations in history.
    Kevin starts with a classic Mr. Wonderful loan offer, then steps back into the role of moderator, helping to guide Maria as she deals with the desperate Daymond and Lori.
    And the punchline from Mark Cuban when Maria shows who she **really** wants to do a deal with: “I’m listening…you have to be fair to them…”

      A surprisingly fair offer from Kevin too, they got to keep 5% of equity in exchange for 7% interest. Based on how the company was growing thats a very tempting trade off, of course that being said the 900k offer and those two sharks is a dream.

And you are confident in your ability to service the interest in the short and medium term. When loan is paid off you'll probably know whether you made a good decision. What is the value of the percentage you would of given up, and what is the value of the amount you paid back including interest.

      And the target market is closer to Maria's age (I looked it up, she's 34). She's athletic, very fit, but not muscle bound. She also has an international presence and will probably do the ads as part of her equity ("free" spokesperson), so they're saving money right there.

    These weights are nice looking tho, especially when compared to other weights on the market, so I guess that’s the appeal.

      The problem is although 3 investors would mean higher inventory chances that's also triple the equity demanded back at a so and so stake and that can either make or break a product. Sometimes it's best to have a solo sponsor. Although you have 3 sponsors if the product flounders down you risked 3 debts instead of one. They may make it look innocent on these TV shows but the reality is you can go bankrupt quick and these people want their money back and will sue you into bankruptcy if needed so be careful with your options. From what I hear Kevin is like the only guy to visit his investors and see how they're doing. He's probably the best guy then for them to get a better start in a grey - area product like this.

    I do find Shark Tank interesting. To make it more interesting on an aging show, they start having "guest" sharks. When they do it, they always have one specific investment to target their interest. It happened with Kendra Scott who literally had an exact match come on the show which she bid and won, and here they did it again with Natalie Holloway and this investment. You can see it happen before they get into the pitch because when they mention the topic the guest shark gets involved almost immediately, as it happened here.
