Business Pitch Episode Recap
Seskin demonstrated his Uro Club urine storage product to the Sharks, eliciting laughter from all five. He clarified that it’s not a functional club for hitting balls.
Kevin Harrington said that while he often plays golf, he wouldn’t recommend buying this product.
Seskin mentioned that the production cost is around $8, and the retail price is $24.95, plus an additional $9.95 for shipping charges. So far, he has sold approximately 3,000 units, generating $70,000 in revenue. Additionally, he has invested $300,000 of his own money into this business.
He currently has 12,000 units available, which are being sold on Amazon.
Daymond John said he lacks the knowledge of how to market the product, so he’s out. Barbara Corcoran mentioned that she couldn’t relate to the product, so she’s out. Robert Herjavec mentioned that he doesn’t feel comfortable using the product, so he’s out.
Kevin O’Leary also declined to invest. Kevin Harrington offered $25,000 for a 70% ownership stake, and Seskin accepted.
