In the beginning, the sharks were doubtful about investing as they were not satisfied with the 4% equity. However, they were impressed to learn the company’s financial numbers.
Justin told the sharks that the company sold over 90,000 shirts in its first year of business. As a result, the company generated gross revenue of over $5 million. He also revealed that the company’s net profit is around 20%.
The majority of the company’s sales come from online sources. They sell directly to customers online.
The overall manufacturing cost of each shirt was $20, and they were sold at $70.
Despite the impressive sales figures, Daymond John decided to back out from the offer as he didn’t like the shirt’s style. Also, he was not happy with the equity offered. The same path was followed by Lori Greiner who quit the deal without extending an offer.
On the other hand, Kevin O’Leary offered a counter of 10% equity in exchange for $300,000. But Justin declined the offer without giving it a second thought. Peter Jones made the same offer as Kevin, but he also was rejected.
In the end, Peter Jones and Mark Cuban teamed up to offer $700,000 credit in addition to their initial offer. Surprisingly, Justin accepted the offer.
After the Shark Tank episode, Collars & Co. witnessed a massive boost in its sales. It made more people aware of the brand as they proceeded to order from the brand.
