Sure. Though I kind of see her parents behind her, making the calculations, telling her how much to counter offer (she was clearly trying to remember what was decided beforehand).

What you’re watching is the “highlights”. She also mentioned she took classes for negotiation and entrepreneurship. She probably messed up along the way but nailed it when it mattered. I’m so happy for her.
I really like how Mark really tries to help younger entrepreneurs get through their pitches by explaining simply what they need to know and guiding them into giving just the right information and encouraging them that what they’re doing is great, especially for their young age. It just really shows how considerate he is and how much he cares to make young people become more successful as they get older and i just think that’s great!
I feel it was a bit condescending. It's like he's saying just because you're 13 you have no idea what we're talking about so we have to dumb down everything. That girl knows more stuff than most adults on that show.
@@ruthlessluder Always has to be someone who complains lmao. If he treated her harshly like they do most adults, you'd be on here complaining about that too
At 13, it was a very very well presented promotional. The dancing was solid, she introduced herself fully, explained the need for her product, the demographic, and even the design, patent pending(!?), and of course numbers. She was polite, firm, and thanked them at the end, including her "dancing crew". Very solid pitch!
She will go down as a legend! Talks/negotiates better than 90% of the people who come on the show. Big respect to Sofi Overton; I expect to see you making big moves in the future.
Usually kids I see who are entrepreneurial usually have parents that sucked with money or were so poor they got used to being creative and money conscious. Not all just most of the ones I’ve spoken to. Especially the really young ones in my area have been raised by abusive drug addicts that have had their needs neglected and isolated from their peers so they’re forced to be observant like a marketer. Unfortunately lots of them end up in gangs cause they know how to sell and they are used for selling drugs.
Her parents created this product and used her as a sales pitchman. Unless you expect me to believe she somehow forked our $20 to $40k to get the patent for the sock
I can’t even imagine what this girl will be doing in 10 years but I’m sure it will be amazing because she is amazing. Counter offer to wealthy Sharks takes guts and grit and she has both.
I don't have kids I'm in my 20s but I think I just felt what it's like to be a proud parent because I felt so proud for this young lady building a buisness like that at that age. At 13 I wasn't even thinking of anything near something like this. Absolutely amazing!
It’s so nice to see all the sharks turn it to a mentoring type conversation and let her navigate it. This is probably my favorite shark tank clip I ever seent
This girl is so sick, I wish I had a SHRED of her integrity, tenacity, and bravery to branch out and create her very own company. Good for her, and her counter offer was EXTREMELY good. I was practically yelling at my phone for her to go for 25% instead and I'm so glad that's the number she picked. A lot of adult investors would be too chicken to change it that much, much less ask for a bit more along it.
13 years old and she pulled off a great business deal. She’s got the product knowledge, good business sense PLUS she has Fantastic negotiating skills that would put most senior business people to shame….. and she never let them see her sweat. Congratulations
Honestly, if she sold them in women's size in black and white, I'd wear them with boots. (Things do slide down the boots, like she said.) Slide my phone in one side. Slide a $20, credit card and my ID in the other. Bam, out the door I go! I like wearing skirts and dresses, but I hate purses. So I just awkwardly carry my phone, wallet and keys since I don't have any pockets. These socks would be a life saver!
I'm guessing the sharks will probably increase their size range to include adult sizes too, so I guess keep your eyes open over the next few months or years :)

@@wp8218 Do you know her personally? Are you her physician or mental health care provider? How do you know she has not been diagnosed with social anxiety disorder? This is a real diagnosis that people really struggle with. Social anxiety is NOT normal- it is a debilitating condition that is treatable.
Wow. She solved her problem by creating that sock, created a product, found a supplier, improve it, found a funding, market and sell it. Then logistic became a problem so she needed capital. Made an interesting sales pitch, negotiated and got a deal and fresh capital all while being a high school student. She has what is takes the be an entrepreuner.
So heartwarming, but not in a patronising way, just a great young lady and given the opportunity, which she has, I'm sure she will go far. Must have SUPER proud parents. You go girl!!
I’m really impressed with this young woman at 13 I can’t wait to see what Sophie does in her teens and 20’s Best of Luck to her and her sock company! Such talent to be so young!
Wow she is amazing, brought me to tears, how young and articulate. Her parents should be so proud and she is exactly the kind of person who will do great things in life not just for her but for the world, you can just tell. I hope she is wildly successful.
Young lady is incredible. Love the combination of boldness and humility. Articulate, bright, good critical thinking skills. The Demo rocked. Well... Absolutely adorable. Her parents must be great people and she did them proud. Congratulations!!! P.S. To the Sharks. Thank you. She was deserving.
I am so proud of this young lady. She definitely has spunk & I was hoping that Damon & Lori to step in. I even cried when they accepted her counter offer. Blessings Sophie
I can't think of a time when a youngster like her or even younger left without a deal..I think that they have an agreement to support young budding entrepreneurs..Which is really cool..Because success or failure it is a learning experience for them..Notice how Mark passed, but they all know Daymond and his socks, so Mark passed the ball to Draymond who is one of the best to make at pitch at because of his history of backing first-timers of any age..Loring also supports young women no matter how crazy the product might be..
There has been an evolving style of presentation over the years. Sophie is new at this so she didn't really tailor her pitch but it was always going to be Daymond for socks. In the early days people would make a generic demo just hoping any shark would bite. In recent years, though, entrepreneurs are much more likely to already have a specific shark in mind even before they go into the tank. Fashion - Daymond. Electronics or tech - Mark or Robert. Small household items - Laurie. Restaurants or anything that will require negotiating some sort of lease - Barbara. Licensing deals or residuals - Kevin. Each shark really does have a specialized expertise and more entrepreneurs are aware of that now.
I agree, it's also great PR for all the ST guys to be seen investing in youth. Not only that, but she's clearly incredibly talented. They now have that talent on their books. For such a small amount of $, it has huge upside.
While this may be true you need to keep in mind they are putting their money into this and I have no doubt that if they didn’t believe in the product they probably wouldn’t make an offer.
@@slchld. Umm...They are making less of an investment for profit, they're investing in something else entirely..They are all Billionaires or close to it..To say that is "chump change" to them is laughable..1/2 an hour, or probably less, of interest on their other investments covers most anything..
@@MrReed314it’s a business and works the same as a bank. Go borrow money from the bank and tell them it’s chump change it doesn’t matter if they lose it. No lender will lend to you or take your seriously because nobody wants to lose money no matter how much they have. Just because they’re billionaires doesn’t mean they’re going to take time out of their day to go work for you for free and lend you money without a good ROI. Don’t be silly.
Can you help me, as someone with little business knowledge, understand how she showed great negotiation skills? Originally she said 30K for 15%, they countered 30K for 33.3%, and she countered 35K for 25%.
@@ps7549 Maybe a bit late but I'll try to explain it. She asked 30k for 15% so that is 30k/15=2k for each percent. their offer was 30k for 33,3% so that is 30k/33,3= 900 or 0.9k for each percent Her counter offer was 35k for 25% so that is 35k/25= 1.4k So the final deal is of course lower than what she initially asked but it's ALOT higher than what the sharks offered. And getting such a large raise out of the sharks, who are seasoned business people, is really impressive. Allso how her counter offer aknowledged that she sharks wanted a bigger stake in the company than 15% (because it gives them more influence) but upping the price because of that was a great move. She read what the sharks wanted, didn't give them entirely what they wanted and made them pay up for what they did get. That's an impressive feat.
Sophie is such an inspiration even to adults like me. She has the knowledge, interest, did her reasearch, worked for the money, and has big dreams! Plus the negotiation! I had many ideas that I did sorta make as a teen, but never went forward with any of them. Wish I had her tenacity, which I applaud her for, as someone also with social anxiety.
Her business failed. Website is down and her social medias are no longer updated for few years. Its pity, because she was very sympathic and remarkable.
Many come to the Tank, too emotionally tied to their business. She's smart; she gave up more of a stake, however, she has seasoned vets on her team that already have market access and expertise. She is not a business owner...she is an entrepreneur! Well done!
6:36 in and Barbara hasn't gone out yet. I'm more shocked by that than how impressive the kid is Edit. Barbara was in her glory here. She went out without even having to go out. Well played
I love everything about this pitch ... she was nervous at the beginning but kept her cool and impressed ALL the sharks. She totally earned the deal and is awesome to see people like her succeed at her goals.
This girl is gonna go FAR in the business world. I mean not only was her negotiating skills impressive but her presentation of the product ( with the boys help) was AWSOME
This is so inspiring to see. I'm going through a hard time right now. It brought tears of joy to see this little ray of sunshine breaking through this darkness in the world today!!!
As a former us arm paratrooper we harped on integrity and to be honest the lessons that little girl learned in that room and the integrity at which these MILLION/BILLION dollar people are treating her with is humbling to say the least. Hope she makes it and I expect a whole ass jumpsuit with pockets everywhere when this is all said and done
OMG!! I cried with pride for her! When I think of what I was doing at 11, 12, 13!! Even the way she walked...with such purpose and confidence! Made me think of Princess Lea (esp her hair buns) :) She'll have thousands of ideas in her career I'm sure!
If your kid wants to design rockets and quantum computers and achieve breakthrough advances in biotech, etc, he or she will have to go to college though.
good on her! she ended up with the perfect partners. the more i watch, the more i appreciate daymond. you can see he wasn't really interested in the business but is willing because he wants to help (and, yes, because it is a viable company/product).
Wow ! This girl will certainly be a business tycoon in future if she thinks and goes in this pace. Loved her negotiating skills in this tender age. Bravo 👏👏👏👍👍👍
A 13 year old kid who has a great product, pretty good nego skills that no other 13 year old would have, and had the massive bravery to go up to the Sharks. Shes definitely gonna make it big
At first I though this product was funny/weird, but after a few seconds… It’s pretty practical. I think it can be so useful for security, you can hide your belongings in that (if you tuck the socks under your pants no one would notice) if you feel you are in an insecure area. As for the young lady, she’s brilliant!
THAT ... was awesome! I hope she makes millions and speaks at my kids' high school! Sophie, thank you for what you have created but, more importantly, for your strong speech when it mattered to adults. You are an inspiration. Congratulations (obviously!) and the best of luck! Sean

@@BlueEyes-WhiteDrag0n sophie says it right before she goes in. 0:05
It’s weird how the younger generation thinks everything is a “diagnosis or condition ”. You’re just nervous lol it’s completely normal
@@wp8218 Do you know her personally? Are you her physician or mental health care provider? How do you know she has not been diagnosed with social anxiety disorder? This is a real diagnosis that people really struggle with. Social anxiety is NOT normal- it is a debilitating condition that is treatable.
Wow. She solved her problem by creating that sock, created a product, found a supplier, improve it, found a funding, market and sell it. Then logistic became a problem so she needed capital. Made an interesting sales pitch, negotiated and got a deal and fresh capital all while being a high school student. She has what is takes the be an entrepreuner.
UPCOMING High School student. This was probably in the break between Middle and High School. This is super impressive.
So heartwarming, but not in a patronising way, just a great young lady and given the opportunity, which she has, I'm sure she will go far. Must have SUPER proud parents. You go girl!!
Love how creative and brave these young entrepreneurs are. Their confidence in their pitch is admirable.
I’m really impressed with this young woman at 13 I can’t wait to see what Sophie does in her teens and 20’s Best of Luck to her and her sock company! Such talent to be so young!
I love, love ,LOVE it when Damon said she had a switch blade in her sock after her counter offer! Too cute & I'm so proud of her!
13! This young lady is definitely going places. So impressed by her maturity, creativity, and entrepreneurial skills.
Wow she is amazing, brought me to tears, how young and articulate. Her parents should be so proud and she is exactly the kind of person who will do great things in life not just for her but for the world, you can just tell. I hope she is wildly successful.
Young lady is incredible. Love the combination of boldness and humility. Articulate, bright, good critical thinking skills. The Demo rocked. Well... Absolutely adorable. Her parents must be great people and she did them proud. Congratulations!!! P.S. To the Sharks. Thank you. She was deserving.
I am so proud of this young lady. She definitely has spunk & I was hoping that Damon & Lori to step in. I even cried when they accepted her counter offer. Blessings Sophie
I will definitely invested in her personality not the product, positif vibes
Thank you for 😢
“Well done”. So deserving, yet understated. Great job.
Mr wonderful is not as smart
if you are 1/3 partner you give up 2/3 of your company not 1/3 what a math
Heart warming - and these socks were a really good idea. The break dancers were also a very nice touch for the presentation.
Love her reaction to Kevin’s “that’s horrible”. 05:03
I can't think of a time when a youngster like her or even younger left without a deal..I think that they have an agreement to support young budding entrepreneurs..Which is really cool..Because success or failure it is a learning experience for them..Notice how Mark passed, but they all know Daymond and his socks, so Mark passed the ball to Draymond who is one of the best to make at pitch at because of his history of backing first-timers of any age..Loring also supports young women no matter how crazy the product might be..
There has been an evolving style of presentation over the years. Sophie is new at this so she didn't really tailor her pitch but it was always going to be Daymond for socks. In the early days people would make a generic demo just hoping any shark would bite. In recent years, though, entrepreneurs are much more likely to already have a specific shark in mind even before they go into the tank. Fashion - Daymond. Electronics or tech - Mark or Robert. Small household items - Laurie. Restaurants or anything that will require negotiating some sort of lease - Barbara. Licensing deals or residuals - Kevin. Each shark really does have a specialized expertise and more entrepreneurs are aware of that now.
I agree, it's also great PR for all the ST guys to be seen investing in youth. Not only that, but she's clearly incredibly talented. They now have that talent on their books. For such a small amount of $, it has huge upside.
While this may be true you need to keep in mind they are putting their money into this and I have no doubt that if they didn’t believe in the product they probably wouldn’t make an offer.
@@slchld.
Umm...They are making less of an investment for profit, they're investing in something else entirely..They are all Billionaires or close to it..To say that is "chump change" to them is laughable..1/2 an hour, or probably less, of interest on their other investments covers most anything..
@@MrReed314it’s a business and works the same as a bank. Go borrow money from the bank and tell them it’s chump change it doesn’t matter if they lose it. No lender will lend to you or take your seriously because nobody wants to lose money no matter how much they have. Just because they’re billionaires doesn’t mean they’re going to take time out of their day to go work for you for free and lend you money without a good ROI. Don’t be silly.
Great negotiation skills. Lovely to see the sharks friendly with this deal supporting the entrepreneurship.
Can you help me, as someone with little business knowledge, understand how she showed great negotiation skills? Originally she said 30K for 15%, they countered 30K for 33.3%, and she countered 35K for 25%.
@@ps7549 exactly dude ..
@@ps7549 Maybe a bit late but I'll try to explain it. She asked 30k for 15% so that is 30k/15=2k for each percent.
their offer was 30k for 33,3% so that is 30k/33,3= 900 or 0.9k for each percent
Her counter offer was 35k for 25% so that is 35k/25= 1.4k
So the final deal is of course lower than what she initially asked but it's ALOT higher than what the sharks offered. And getting such a large raise out of the sharks, who are seasoned business people, is really impressive.
Allso how her counter offer aknowledged that she sharks wanted a bigger stake in the company than 15% (because it gives them more influence) but upping the price because of that was a great move.
She read what the sharks wanted, didn't give them entirely what they wanted and made them pay up for what they did get. That's an impressive feat.
Sophie is such an inspiration even to adults like me. She has the knowledge, interest, did her reasearch, worked for the money, and has big dreams! Plus the negotiation! I had many ideas that I did sorta make as a teen, but never went forward with any of them. Wish I had her tenacity, which I applaud her for, as someone also with social anxiety.
The 2 sharks were super generous. It made me happy that they accepted her counter offer
She'll be on her way, she just needs good guidance from trust worthy people with loving hearts, congrats
She is brilliant. Hope my kids have this ambition when they get older
I like how the sharks, while still very much in business mode, get softer for the kids. Lori and Mark are always so happy to see them
The fact that she's humble , kind and an amazing beginner entrepreneur makes me like this girl even more. And i havent even seen her in my life!
What an amazing and smart young lady. I wish more young people act like her and so wise.
Clearly she has parents that's helping, lets not forget about those that support her
Did u act like that when u were young?
@@yeah88942 yes with my parents help
@@LedePat I was asking marsha green not u
Impressive! Sophie has alot of confidence for her age.
She went in to the Shark Tank
& came out alive &
going for the gold!!
Way to go, Sophie!!
Respect to this young woman. So many of us (to include myself) would love to have this passion at such young age! You go girl!! 🥰
Congrats to her , she came in with big boss moves and made a big boss deal. Can't wait to see her progress even more !!!
Her business failed. Website is down and her social medias are no longer updated for few years. Its pity, because she was very sympathic and remarkable.
Many come to the Tank, too emotionally tied to their business. She's smart; she gave up more of a stake, however, she has seasoned vets on her team that already have market access and expertise. She is not a business owner...she is an entrepreneur! Well done!
She squeezed more juice out of the lemons she was given. A win in my book
This girl will go far in life. She's already way ahead of many people 4 times her age
I like how Mark sounds really honest and involved when he says good for you and on giving advices.
6:36 in and Barbara hasn't gone out yet. I'm more shocked by that than how impressive the kid is
Edit. Barbara was in her glory here. She went out without even having to go out. Well played
@@LK-gw6to Nah sorry bud. Never played that.
@@LK-gw6to S
Right ...lol..
Barbs didn’t even to say I’m out they already knew 😂
I love everything about this pitch ... she was nervous at the beginning but kept her cool and impressed ALL the sharks. She totally earned the deal and is awesome to see people like her succeed at her goals.
Mark is such a great person. Always complementing the young kids.
*At 13 I had business ideas but never knew how to go about them nor the fonds to execute them. I am so proud of Sophie.*
Shes brilliant and has great negotiating skills. I'm proud of her.
The way she answer the questions is amazing at such a young age..
This young lady brings tears of joy to my eyes.
Dance presentation is very thoughtful and it proves her theory and solidifies the business pitch
This girl is gonna go FAR in the business world. I mean not only was her negotiating skills impressive but her presentation of the product ( with the boys help) was AWSOME
God I'm so happy for her it made me shed a tear. She's so genuine.
Wish I had this kind of entrepreneur spirit even now. Some ppl just have it and it’s so great to see them realize their potential
This is so inspiring to see. I'm going through a hard time right now. It brought tears of joy to see this little ray of sunshine breaking through this darkness in the world today!!!
Sophie took lauris hug like she really needed it. Made me tear up, inspirational young girl, Hope she makes it far
Her decision for a counter offer was brilliant. What a brave young lady. Taking on the Sharks
I fucking love that mark is SO pro-entrepreneur. He loves and encourages them to do the right thing or to counter.
As a former us arm paratrooper we harped on integrity and to be honest the lessons that little girl learned in that room and the integrity at which these MILLION/BILLION dollar people are treating her with is humbling to say the least. Hope she makes it and I expect a whole ass jumpsuit with pockets everywhere when this is all said and done
They totally did it so they can help her, teach her, mentor her and WATCH HER GROW!! That's so awesome that they believe in young people!!!
OMG!! I cried with pride for her!
When I think of what I was doing at 11, 12, 13!!
Even the way she walked...with such purpose and confidence!
Made me think of Princess Lea (esp her hair buns) :)
She'll have thousands of ideas in her career I'm sure!
I would be more proud of my kid for this than getting into an world Top Tier college by Far .
Marvelous !
If your kid wants to design rockets and quantum computers and achieve breakthrough advances in biotech, etc, he or she will have to go to college though.
Genius with that dance movement great way to test her products
good on her! she ended up with the perfect partners.
the more i watch, the more i appreciate daymond. you can see he wasn't really interested in the business but is willing because he wants to help (and, yes, because it is a viable company/product).
This gives me chills. I can only hope my daughter is this brave and entrepreneurial!
i hope your daughter is loved and valued by her parents no matter how brave or entrepreuneurial she is!
@@sori6196 Word!
Every kid are unique sometimes you just gotta allow them to explore and help them excel in their own way
And greedy, too!
why ur daughter? why not u xd
Wow ! This girl will certainly be a business tycoon in future if she thinks and goes in this pace.
Loved her negotiating skills in this tender age. Bravo 👏👏👏👍👍👍
Absolutely awesome! I started hustling when I was 13 and by the time i was 29 I owned an award winning business! This girl is awesome!
What business
Wow, I’m totally impressed by her! I can’t believe she’s only 13 and she’s a business owner already.
Barbara: I’m sitting between billionaires and for that reason I’m out.
🤣
😂😂😂
A 13 year old kid who has a great product, pretty good nego skills that no other 13 year old would have, and had the massive bravery to go up to the Sharks. Shes definitely gonna make it big
is it just me or does she look more like 16? Maybe because she acts like an adult? I Dunno
Horrible product
THESE ARE GREAT SOCKS FOR STORING MONEY WHEN YOU TRAVEL etc... I would DEFINITELY buy them...
“Yeah Sophie” love the enthusiasm 😂 this was very impressive I had to watch it twice, I hope all the best for her!
Why am I crying omg. Good luck young lady. I love how you believe in yourself and your products.
At first I though this product was funny/weird, but after a few seconds… It’s pretty practical. I think it can be so useful for security, you can hide your belongings in that (if you tuck the socks under your pants no one would notice) if you feel you are in an insecure area.
As for the young lady, she’s brilliant!
And then there’s me whos thinking this is amazing to keep joints in
My gosh that is one impressive kid! She is a credit to our state!
She impressed all the sharks and made them smile and be happy, including the manic shark...!
She came out like a winner ! She said a COUNTER offer! I applaud her‼️❤️🙏🏾
THAT ... was awesome! I hope she makes millions and speaks at my kids' high school! Sophie, thank you for what you have created but, more importantly, for your strong speech when it mattered to adults. You are an inspiration. Congratulations (obviously!) and the best of luck! Sean
Barbara didn't get a chance to say she was out 😂
She's going places, that's for sure. Incredible. Even the fact that she's watching Shark Tank at 6 years old is amazing.
It’s shut down now
