Veggie Mama Snatched Away from Perpetuity

Veggie Mama Gets Deal on Shark Tank

 If you follow the Shark Tank Success Blog you already know how I feel about offers on the Show involving royalty fees in perpetuity or for the life of that product. For the Sharks or any Angel Investor making a deal with this little addition to the terms of the contract, they now has you by the balls for the "life of that business'" and there's nothing you can ever do about it. A royalty fee in perpetuity basically guarantees the investor will be paid back in record time and continue to suck profits right off the top for the life of that businesses existence.

Kevin O'Leary is now starting to get famous for making such ridiculous offers that no entrepreneur in their right mind would ever except if they understood what they were getting themselves into. Once you see O'Leary make a royalty offer involving no equity now almost on a weekly basis, it's clear He's not necessarily trying to screw the business, but testing the business owners judgment for making correct decisions while under pressure of the Shark Tank Show. If any contestant ever does decide to take Kevin up on basically a Business "Shark Loan" that never ends like the Wicked Good Cupcakes did in Season 4, it's still possible for the entrepreneur to make a lot of money while adding to O'Leary's Fortune.

I have almost come to expect an offer from O'Leary like this when he's on the fence about investing in certain products, but still wants to throw some sort of offer on the table. But Lori Greiner and Robert Herjevic on the other hand, I would of never expected to make such an offer.

Ruffle Butts

Ruffle Butts - Rugged Butts on Shark Tank

Children's Clothing Line - Episode 506 - 10-18-2013

Ruffle Butts - Ruffle Butts
Seen on the Shark Tank Season 5

 Here comes the Ruffle Buttsor was that the Rugged Butts who's going to appear on the Shark Tank Show. Ruffle or Rugged there's no Butt's about it, this Children's Clothing Brand(s) is going to explode in sales after being seen on the Shark Tank. One of the most important decisions starting Any New Successful Business begins with the businesses name that needs to be easy to remember and one that "really stands out" of the crowd. With names like Ruffle Butts and Rugged Butts, yep no doubt about it, I won't be forgetting these brand names anytime soon.


Rugged Butts Tuxedo

Husband and Wife Team Mark and Amber Schaub from Charlotte, North Carolina, are the entrepreneurs behind the Ruffle Butts and Rugged Butts Brands. As you may of already guessed the Ruffle Butts Brand is a children's clothing line for little girls and Rugged Butts is for little boys. Each has its own unique professional website with a very large list (100's) of colorful clothes to choose from.

If you would rather to go shopping and buy the Ruffle Butts Clothes in person you are very much in luck as hundreds of stores already carry this Brand around the world. The list of stores is by far the largest I have ever seen on ANY other Shark Tank Contestant's website, and I believe I've been to them all. It's possible other products are in as many stores, but to my knowledge no one else has taken the time to mention each and every Store on their website.

$400 Million Financial Advice From The Sharks

Financial Advice From All The Sharks

 In light of last night's $400 million Power Ball Jackpot, a very wise and smart reporter who had access of all the Sharks still filming season 5, asks them for financial advice if you win the $400 million dollar prize. With a combined net worth estimated over $5 billion, all 6 of the Sharks on the Shark Tank Show took turns giving free financial advice.


When Mark Cuban was asked "what would your advice be if someone were to win the powerball?", with His reply being "put it in the bank" without even thinking about it. Mark goes on to say "whenever you get a large sum of money fast, then all kinds of things happen that you never anticipate". After settling up with Uncle Sam, you will also have a lot more Best Friends and a lot of people wanting to give you advise on how to spend all this money. Sure, if you just have your money sitting in the Bank you're not going to make any interest to speak of these days, but your money is "safe" and not going to disappear. Besides after taxes you will have around $200 million free and clear, so how much more money do you need to make in the short term anyway? Marks main advise is theirs only one goal and that's to "keep it". (Great Advice)

Daymond John's financial advice is if you win the lottery, #1 don't tell anyone

Clean Bottle

Clean Bottle Shark Tank Update

The Cleanest Water Bottle On Earth - Season 3

Need a little Free Publicity?
Just chase down a few bike rider's  at the Tour de France
for Free World Wide Advertising!

 The Clean Bottle was designed with one thing in mind, to be the easiest water bottle too clean that has ever been made. After 3 years and 54 prototypes, Dave Mayer has accomplished that goal and appropriately named His invention The Clean Bottle. What makes this water bottle so unique from anything else on the market is the fact it unscrews on both ends making it much easier to clean and dry out when not in use.

New Runner
Water Bottle w/ Pouch

Dave Meyer's may have invented the cleanest water bottle ever made, but it took all the money he had to create it with little left for advertising the final product. What's Dave do to start getting the word out about his new invention?  He does what any creative Entrepreneur would do, He creates it. Meyer's went  to the Tour de France where everyone has water bottles and has his Giant Clean Bottle Mascot start jogging along with the bike riders. This seemingly simple form of advertising gets picked up with world wide press coverage and puts the Clean Bottle on the map.

When Dave entered the Shark Tank about a year after the Tour de France, His sales had already mushroomed to over $750,000.00 and still climbing. Read More Here-->>>

Shark Tank Season 4 Episode 421

What happened after the Shark Tank Show?

  This is one Shark Tank Episode that will go down in the History Books as one of the most memorable episodes in all of Season 4. Kevin O'Leary steps out of His comfort zone and shows it's not always about the money while making a terrific investment helping an Entrepreneur get a Big Break on Her road to a very successful company. Mark Cuban on the other hand, helps fellow College Student's obtain an investment to further develop their Coffee of the Month Club with unique blends from around the world. Ah yes, we can't forget about the bird feeder that remotely shocks squirrels if they try eating you're bird seed. If you like 100% natural wood products as much as I do, then your going to love what this Butcher Block Company can custom make to you.

Misto Box Coffee Club Update

Samantha Meis & Conor Riley started the Misto Box Monthly Coffee Club as a project while still in college. Soon after graduation Samantha and Connor wasted little time starting a successful crowdfunding campaign raising over $9000 and getting the much needed capital to kick start their coffee business.

Within in one year almost to the day, this Kickstater Campaign led them directly to the Shark Tank where they made a deal with Mark Cuban for $75,000.00 and a third ownership in the business. Misto Box is now offering several different new services including getting a new box of coffee every other week instead of once a month. You can still try the Misto Box Service for only $5. for your first delivery.

The Original Profender

The Original Profender Shark Tank Update

Basketball Training Device - Season 3 - Episode 305

Demonstrating The Original Profender
Basketball Training Devise

 The Original Profender is a rather unique basketball training invention developed by Tony Divine for his son Devon. This mobile basketball training device reacts much like a professional defender closing in on his opponent before taking a shot.

Tony gets right to the point inside the Shark Tank and asks for $75,000.00 for a 15% equity stake in the Original Profender invention. Mark Cuban that knows a thing or two about basketball, gladly rolls up his sleeves and want to give The Original Profender a try. Tony already has one ready to go with a cut out of Kevin O'Leary which he calls The Original Offender. Son of a gun if Mark beats the Profender and makes a basket on his first try. Obviously Cuban must workout with the Dallas Mavericks because he was sinking them down like a real pro.

So how does professional basketball players currently run drill's when closing in on an opponent? According to Mark Cuban, the coach uses a broom to try and distract the players when shoot at the basket. There's no question The Original Profender has value on the basketball court, the real question is how big is this market?

Shark Tank Season 5

Season 5 of the Shark Tank Show

Premieres Friday September 20, 2013 on ABC

 Great news Shark Tank Fans! ABC has finally announced Season 5 of the Shark Tank Show will start in two months on 9/20/2013. Many people had predicted (including myself) the show would be moved this season to a more preferred time slot and a different day of the week with more potential viewers watching.

As it turns out the Shark Tank will keep it's familiar time slot @ 9 P.M. (eastern) on Friday Night's where it has dominated the rating's most of last season. I'm not sure why they would choose to keep one of their most Successful Shows on probably the worst night of the week, but then again new episodes have even made me change my plans to accommodate that time.

I would imagine having the Shark Tank air on Friday Night's instead of any other night of the week is might be that viewers have all weekend to visit the contestants websites.
