@@nancyfahey7518 when did he lie exactly? He told them it was pasteurized, he claimed it was a "young thai coconut" which usually means unripened so he definitely could've gone into more detail about that but still not a lie, and taste is extremely subjective so Barbara claiming it's good is her statement not his
If I could find out why the deal didn't go thru the answer is probably there. Don't know specifics of young thai coconuts but regular coconuts are 1400 calories. I'll probably try it if I see it in the store but after that I'm out.

For anyone who may be wondering, the deal that Genius Juice made with Barbara Corcoran and Mark Cuban on Shark Tank fell through. Apparently Bayer (the entrepreneur) ultimately decided not to take the deal after the episode aired. Genius Juice raises $6 million annually and is projected to surpass $12 million this year. They are in 2,000 stores across the US including Walmart, Albertson’s, Whole Foods & Publix.
I like how he didn't hesitate when he was offered 500k from Mark and Barbara. That's the sign of a smart negotiator. He's getting tremendous value at that point, no need to haggle.
Honestly I love Barbara, she gets a lot of crap for alwaya being out but that just makes it more special when she makes a deal, because you know the investment means something to her. On the other hand Kevin always makes an offer but you can tell he doesn't actually care about any of them.
Kevin makes safe offers with little to no risk royalties debt and so on he can afford to invest 250k when hes almost guaranteed to make his money back and then some.
Kevin has cooled off a bit in later seasons. I have seen him kick people off without even hearing other sharks. He used to be very sharky, now I don't think he wants many more deals
The deal actually fell through after this and Barbara and Mark never actually invested into the company, but surprisingly the company‘s doing very well when they made 12 million last year.
Barbara’s Logic 101: “You are an amazing entrepreneur, this is a great business, I have no doubt you will be a success, and for those reasons I’m out” “I have lost money on multiple companies in this space, my gut says this is a bad investment so I’ll make you a offer”
*Barbara explains three hundred reasons to be out* *Also Barbara: "Since Robert is out, I don't have nothing to do but to be in, I'm gonna make a deal"
Great, healthy, natural and organic product, instead of the cheap crap you see everywhere. This is a premium beverage. Coconut has such a wide variety of benefits, from food & beverage, to cleaning, to skin care. This guy is not making cheap coconut water, he is making a coconut beverage smoothie with substance, that is why it tastes so good. Gosh I wanna try this stuff, now I need to research where to buy it. Yum. I admire the gigantic amount of work and money that goes into creating a product/business and running it. Just wow.
That was the best, most Genius pitch I have ever seen in The Shark Tank! Simple, succinct, straight to the point, and no bs! Simply put, it was a REAL pitch!
Sometimes Mark can get a bit arrogant (not all the time, just at some times) but he always has some words of wisdom to give to EVERY pitcher, even if he goes out. And he WAS out for this pitch but suddenly jumped right back in. He’s a good guy.
I totally get it. Most everyone that goes on this show I wouldn't put money in. But this guy was a real one, in my estimation. After he told his story of losing his shelf space when he separated with a bad partner business and clawing his way back I saw a guy that knows how to stand his ground and accept the hits he's going to take for making that choice.
Barbara doesn't invest in the business , she invests in the person ,now that isn't a success recipe and many things can go south but I find it kind of sweet

I couldnt stand Barbara before but im really starting to like her now. In fact she may be one of the smartest ones up there. I think Her Kevin are the smartest business wise and Mark a close 2nd
The Deal fell through:- After such a successful pitch and a verbal acceptance of the deal with Corcoran and Cuban, soon after the episode, the deal fell through. According to an interview with Forbes, in the end, Bayer didn't feel the terms were the right fit for the company: "We decided to fundraise to leverage our exposure from the Shark Tank episode in which the brand gained significant attention."
I think Lori would do well with QYC with this product, but the market for this is worth billions, and I think that Lori knows she wouldn’t make big enough of a dent in the market, also considering how successful each company is with all of her deals.
