Episode 819 starts at 8 PM eastern this week – a bit earlier than usual. It’s a Sharkette show with Barbara and Lori on the panel as the Sharks evaluate 4 new businesses seeking a cash infusion and a Shark partner. “Winetrepreneur” and master Sommelier Billy Dim toasts the Sharks with the Blendtique Wine Company, his business that lets people design their own wine blends and labels. Mark Bernstein wants the Shark to bite on MealEnders, his lozenge product that helps curb overeating by distracting the body’s hunger signals. Two brothers, Aric & Alec Avedissian, hope to bag a Shark to invest in RareForm, their business that repurposes used billboard vinyl into bags, backpacks, wallets, phone cases and more. Inventor and entrepreneur Tara Brown pitches the Sleep Styler, her invention that dries and styles hair while you sleep.

Episode 819 – The Shark Investors and Entrepreneurs
The Shark Tank Episode 819 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.
