Episode 103 features 5 entrepreneurs hoping to partner with one of the wealthy Shark investors. Marian Cruz is looking for a Shark to help her develop her Turbobaster, a battery-powered basting brush/cooking juice extraction system. Brian Parks pitches his Chopstick Art, his business that uses recycled chopsticks to create baskets and wine holders (among other things). Lori Lite hopes the Sharks get a read on Stress Free Kids, her series of children’s books designed to calm over active children at bedtime. Ken Bradford seeks a deal for 50 State Capitols, a set of playing cards that teaches US geography. Father and son entrepreneurs Jeff and Josh Cohen hope to strike a chord with the Sharks and get an investment in Voyage Air Guitar, a guitar that folds in half for easy packing. Who gets an investment in the Shark Tank and who leaves empty-handed?

Episode 103 – The Shark Investors and Entrepreneurs
The Shark Tank Episode 103 entrepreneurs make their best pitch to the panel of five Shark investors who will use their own money if they choose to invest. The Shark Investors negotiate on the spot without any previous information, which differs from typical negotiations between venture capital investors and entrepreneurial start-ups. Companies pitching the Shark Investors must go through a rigorous due diligence process before an on-air deal is completed. Shark Tank Blog follow ups help you keep track of the companies that end up successful and the ones that don’t complete their deal.
