Daymond John joins Mark, Robert, Kevin and Lori in Shark Tank episode 1220. Together they’ll evaluate four new businesses seeking an investment from a Shark (or Sharks).
Mike Sewell introduces the Sharks to StepNpull, a product that lets you open a swinging door with your feet, reducing the risk of spreading germs.. The company saw explosive growth during the Covid-19 pandemic. Kevin Conway and Josh Inglis pitch Phoozy, their “koozies” for phones, tablets and laptops that are made from NASA Space Suit material. Eric and Rebecca Romanucci want a Shark for Dynosafe, their front porch delivery “safes” that deter porch pirates. Merrick Maxfield presents his ShakeGenie, a yogurt maker that makes probiotic yogurt right in a milk jug. Which business(es) land a Shark tonight?
Earlier in season 12, Mark did a deal with Michael Pan of Pan’s Mushroom Jerky. Mark invested $300,000 for 18% of the business. The company had some challenges with rapid growth and bad weather shutdowns, not to mention operating in the global Covid-19 pandemic. In tonight’s update segment, we’ll see how Michael weathered this difficult period.
There are 22 Shark Tank Episodes for Season 12. This season features more appearances by “guest Sharks,” including two returning guest Sharks: Alex Rodriguez and Daniel Lubetzky. In addition, two new guest Sharks will appear throughout season 12: Blake Mycoskie, founder of TOMS Shoes and MadeFor and Kendra Scott, founder of Kendra Scott, LLC, a fashion company she started in her spare bedroom in 2002 with $500. Casting is currently closed, but it never hurts to get a head start on season thirteen! If you would like to appear on the show, check out our Auditions and Casting information.
Episode 1220 – The Shark Investors and Entrepreneurs
The Shark Tank Episode 1220 entrepreneurs will 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.
