Four new businesses kick off the 2016 Shark Tank season in a special Tuesday night airing of Shark Tank episode 713. Dwight Littlejohn wants to straighten out the Sharks as he pitches Total Tie Keep, a fashion accessory that keeps neck ties neat and straight. Fitness marketers Josh McClellan and Ashley Drummonds introduce ABS Protein Pancakes, a pancake mix with 150 calories, 6 grams of carbohydrates, and 26 grams of protein. These pancakes won’t make you flabby! Firefighter Peter Thorpe hopes the Sharks help him get FireAvert to the masses. His device prevents stove-top fires: the number one cause of house fires in the USA. Entrepreneur Randy Stenger invites the Sharks to play in his Extreme Sandbox, an adventure venue that lets people “play” with heavy construction equipment.

Episode 713 – The Shark Investors and Entrepreneurs
The Shark Tank Episode 713 entrepreneurs will make their best pitch to the panel of five Shark investors who will use their own money if they choose to invest.

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.
