Shark Tank Episode 420Week 19 - 3-1-2013 |
This weeks episode of the Shark Tank Show has a little something for everyone from an already established acupressure wrist band to a home tattoo removal devise that is sure to be an instant hit. One of these companies have the potential to be one of the largest offers ever offered on the Shark Tank Show and should make for a very interesting round of negotiations. Did we mention that yet another Peanut Butter inspired business will make it's way on the Shark Tank that has added benefits that set it apart from most competition. In fact competition is what these nuts are all about. And we certainly can't forget about the stiletto high heel shoes that transforms to a wedge using (I think) a patented magnetic method which could have a huge licensing deal in the making. |

Pebble Smart Watch
Pebble Watch on Kick Starter
Smart Watch - Most Successful Kickstarter Campaign in History
Pebble Watch makes Kickstarter History Over $10 million in 30 days! |

Furthermore you can customize your watch using apps for an unlimited number of download able watch faces. When you connect your smart phone with the smart watch it will alert you to incoming calls, emails and important messages. You can even scan and play your music list from the convenience of your watch. This is not the Dick Tracey watch to compete with the smart phones but more of an accessory that will have you using your IPhone and Android devises in ways you never imagined.
This smart pebble watch has just set an amazing Kickstarter record that may not be broken any time in the near future. What started out as an already ambitious goal of raising $100,000.00 to kick start the Pebble Watch in a little over a Month, turns out to be less then 1% of the over-all total. The Pebble Watch raised over $10,000,000.00 (Ten Million Dollars) from over 68,000 customers by the time the campaign ended.

PSI Bands
PSI Bands on Shark Tank
Acupressure Wrist Bands - Season 4 Episode 420 - 3-1-2013
Psi Bands were first developed as a way to alleviate morning sickness when pregnant. Putting a controlled amount of pressure on the neiguan pressure point has been well documented in helping with this and many other nausea related symptoms including all types of motion sickness. The reviews of the acupressure bands
have been so impressive they are also used during chemotherapy, and patients have experienced less nausea as a result.
The ancient art of acupressure is coming to the Shark Tank Psi Bands wrist band. Romy Taormina the inventor of Psi Bands (pronounced sigh) is sure getting a lot of attention in the acupressure world. These Bands are designed to put pressure on what’s called your Neiguan pressure point and provide relief from nausea. You should wear a Psi Band on both wrists for the full effect, and yes they actually do work. Psi Bands were first developed as a way to alleviate morning sickness when pregnant. Putting a controlled amount of pressure on the neiguan pressure point has been well documented in helping with this and many other nausea related symptoms including all types of motion sickness. The reviews of the acupressure bands
When Taormina had severe morning sickness during her pregnancie he set out to design a more fashionably attractive alternative for this ancient Psi Bands are arguably the most attractive acupressure bands on the market and many retailers have already taken notice and are already selling them. A partial list of just some of the stores already carrying Psi Bands include Toys-R-Us, Babies-R-Us, Rite Aid, Wholefoods, CVS, Walgreens.com and Target.com.
The PSI Bands come in 5 colors to choose from
With an already clearly established productavailable in some of the most recognizable stores in the country this should be a very interesting round of negotiations for the Sharks to consider. Maybe a QVC play to help further the Brands awareness? No, they have already been on QVC as early as 2008. In fact the more I dig the more I even wonder what could the Sharks even offer them that they don't already have. Provide additional working capital to keep up with demand? Could be but it seems this company is already way past that point so there must be another reason for them to even consider coming to the Shark Tank and give up part equity for the privilege. Deal or No Deal, they are still obligated to give the producers of the Shark Tank a percentage of the acupressure business.
There is more to this story then meets the eyeand unfortunately we all have to wait until this Friday Night on ABC to see how this all plays out. This seems to have a lot of resemblance to the

PSI Bands after the Shark Tank Update
WARNING:
Well I couldn't of been more wrong about this company if I actually tried.
From the beginning of this (Amy or Roma?) in finding things that should not of been there
( what the f**k is this, yui_3_7_2_1_1961908819702_2031) to learning just because your in thousands of stores, doesn't necessarily make you successful. Especially when you try to take advantage of someone like me that is basically giving you free publicity.
Romy came into the Shark Tank looking for a $250k investment for a 10% stake in the acupressure business valuating it at $2.5 million. Robert Herjevic is the first to ask about sales for the last year when Taormina responds "almost a million dollars". They are already in over 6000 retail stores across the country with a gross profit margin of only 11% (a hundred grand). She also has $600k in debt that includes past deferred salaries from years ago which instantly turns all the Sharks off. Yes she actually had the balls to ask the sharks to cover her past salary with their investment in the company.
They all go out except for Kevin O'Leary who is the only one to make an offer for the $250k but wants 40% of the company. Taormina instantly says no and refuses to make a counter offer. It appears that she came in the Shark Tank and had no intentions of negotiating as she steadfastly sticks to the 10%. NO DEAL
Both Mark Cuban and Daymond John said they Do Not TRUST HER. After finding that code above no less then 20 times within a revised copy her or her employee so gratisially sent me, I have to agree. Very VERY Sneaky!
I am still waiting for a response to exactly what code is and why you would go out of your way and try to take advantage of me.
Neo Mag Light
Neo Mag Light on Shark Tank
Home Tattoo Removal - Season 4, Episode 420 3/1/2013
There's no question getting a tattoo removed can be very expensive
. Most people that have unwanted tattoo's assume they are stuck with these old memories for life and cannot justify spending thousands of dollars to have the tattoo removed. Until recently you really had only three choices. Keep living with that homemade or poorly designed tattoo from days you would rather forget, (or don't quite remember) have a professional tattoo artist incorporate your old tattoo into a new one, or pay big bucks and have it removed over several costly sessions. You now have a fourth option of removing tattoo's at home using a Neo Mag Light, which it's easy to see, will become a very popular new option for thousands of people.Black Magic Tattoo Remover Neo Mag Light |
Neo Innovations is the company behind the magnetic light that has been providing an affordable tattoo removal's since 2010. In 2011 they brought in Kevin Mack as marketing director who is now the Vice President.

Aimee Miller and Megan Carrecker Inventors of the Hip Chixs Blue Jeans |
O.K. Lady's, I need your help on this one. How much would you spend on a high quality pair of Blue Jeans made in the USA? Now before you answer that, you need to know that these are touted as the most comfortable, softest pair of Jeans you have ever worn and designed to have your best asset's really stand out. The two Hip Chicks from Dallas, Texas and the inventors of the Hip Chixs Jeans are coming to the Shark Tank to test how much you are willing to pay for the best pair of jeans you have ever worn.
Aimee Miller and Megan Carrecker are both Texas Natives and former Baylor University graduates that have always been passionate about designing a better pair of blue jeans and starting their own Brand with a western flair. After four years and dozens of pro-to-types later, the Hip Chixs Jeans was born in June 2011 with raving revues all around Dallas. This happened to be right in the middle of a heat wave which would seem like a disadvantage trying to start a new line of blue jeans, but in fact it turned into a clever marketing strategy that was picked up by several news outlets.

Carmen Linden Inventor of the Smuffin |
Carmen Linder is the inventor of the new Smore's and what she famously coined the Smuffin. The Smuffin has all the ingredients to make Smores around the campfire but is conveniently made in a cupcake-like presentation with a gram cracker crust. Of course Linder makes the traditional S'mores that most of us has had, but she takes it a step further and makes a variety of new desert's using this famous recipe. How about a cookies and cream Smuffin? Or maybe you would prefer the chocolate and peanut butter S'more that's a big hit with most everyone that had tried one.
Carmen came up with this unconventional way of making S'more's not as a business but as a snack for Her family.

Invisible Truck Rack Season 3 episode 307 - Update Season 4 - Episode 418
Donny McCall is the inventor of the Invis A Rack from Season 3 that made a very big impact on the Shark Tank for his stance to keep this product "Made In America". Incredibly it was this decision that probably cost him a deal with the Sharks as he did not get the investment he needed for his invention. McCall was looking for $100k in exchange for 10% of the invisarack business. At that time, Donny has sold 150 units and grossed $50k in sales.
Donny was very adamant about keeping the manufacturing and production in the U.S. and specifically in and around Sparta, North Carolina where he calls home. He's a one man business that hopes to bring job's to the community and bring new hope in the depressed market. Getting the Invis-A-Rack manufactured oversees is Not an option
that he will even consider. This product was invented in the U.S. and it will be built here (period).

Get Grinds Coffee Pouch
Get Grinds on the Shark Tank Show
Coffee Chewing Tobacco - Season 4, Episode 413, week 15
Get Grinds is a very unique, should we say, chewing tobacco alternative or maybe it should be marketed as a new form of energy in the crowded Energy Boosting Market. The Get Grinds Coffee Pouches have the same look and feel as the traditional tobacco chewing products on the market but contain flavored coffee ground's instead. A 100% Nicotine Free Alternative sounds like a Great Idea that could actually save lives. Not that an excessive amount of caffeine from the coffee grounds would be good for you, but a caffeine habit is much better then a nicotine habit. Actually one Get Grinds pouch also known as fake chew, contains the equivalent of only 1/4 cup of coffee so it's not just caffeine that gives you the added boost but other energy boosting ingredients as well.
The two invented the Get Grinds Coffee Pouches while in college and playing baseball out in San Francisco, California as an alternative to regular chewing tobacco. By making their pouches using flavored coffee grounds and then adding the same ingredients found in energy drinks like Red Bull or the 5 Hour energy,
