Everyone wants Laurie cause she has a pretty face and is the queen of selling on QVC. That said, Kevin has quite the portfolio of success and is a beast on social media. I’d take Kevin over Laurie because of his passion for business.
He always does that. Kevin rarely actually closes on deals but he, more than any of the others, initiates the bidding when no one else will; like a life preserver being thrown out to the drowning entrepreneur.
This entrepreneur had one of the best put together total presentations I've seen on the show. He stayed in control, he presented clearly, he negotiated like a champ, and he made a great deal. Other entrepreneurs should take notes.
I don’t think he made a great deal. He should’ve tried to get Lori by herself or gone with Kevin. This product isn’t a fit for Mark. Glad the deal fell through
To be honest. Kevin straight up saved this guy. He might be harsh most of the times but when he likes something he really does wish good on them despite being left out. Fav Shark.
used to hate him, but now he's just grown on me so much. He's nice, but blunt, and it comes off as abrasive but he really has their best interest at heart. Such a good guy.
Average white family becomes Millionaire once in their life at least. There are lot of Millionaires in America but when you get to Billionaire with "B", everything changes.
Mark was fine with 500k for 7% for him and Lori. But as soon as the guy said 8%, Mark caught on and immediately countered to 10%. If the guy would've stayed quiet a bit longer, he could've got them both at 7% !! Lesson: if you show signs of weakness, smart people like Mark will pounce all over you !
ya its a mistake but i wouldnt be too upset with myself with 2 sharks and the future of company bright.. 3% isnt a big deal, granted its a bigger deal when you have 51% to start.. he still has 41% tho and between him lori and mark they have 51%
@@DreamsDFSPicks I agree with you, but I believe he is selling (or whatever you call it) 10% of the whole not just from his share. So that means he is only letting go of 5% of what is his. Obviously he would have a clearance from other investors for him to be able to do that. If not he will hold 0% after a few rounds of bringing in capital.(I think)
He's been my fav for a long time. I'd say in the earlier ST seasons he was a bit more of a dick (lol) but he has aspects to him that are very cool, funny and interesting. He's still my fav shark for sure.
I feel terrible for this guy. Imagine waking up to find your entire life's work has been ruined and it's not even the end of it.

Not only that but he's the least physically attractive which combined with his bad reputation is a big turn off for people unfortunately.
Really liked this entrepreneur. Multiple sharks telling him he’s in trouble and had no fear and total confidence in his product. Brilliant idea that can probably be applied to multiple other food products as well.
Kevin's always that shark who hypes up the bidding and helps these entrepreneurs get better deals from the other sharks. He's brilliant and I think just hearing his feedback on how you're doing and where you'll get at is already rewarding.
@Ellie5621 that’s the whole premise though lol, they’re sharks - all there to make money. If an offer like this presents itself they’re not going to worry that they’re stepping on another investor’s toes to get the deal if it could mean millions for them.
Kevin and Lori were the perfect pair for this guy. Kevin worked with Plated through their tough times and got an acquisition deal. Walking in starry eyed about Cuban b/c he's a billionaire was short-sighted, considering he doesn't know this space at all. Kevin gets all the flack for being 'greedy' but in actuality, Lori is the sharkiest... she'll ditch anyone on a dime to get a deal and she still comes out smelling like roses. Haha! She's fun to watch.
Kevin was absolutely right about the strategy! The way the business was structures was to grow fast and that cannot be suddenly changed. They will have to raise more money and eventually go into a buyout!
@@MultiJejje dude was used to being able to rise money. This meant he was not as worried as maybe he should be, about not making a profit. He really needed someone to come in, and help him past that.

Add on to that, covid, means that alot of that money is now wasted, and he has to figure out a whole new route to market. There is ALOT for the Sharks to do here.
During Covid, I saw a salad in a Jar at my local hospital, alongside a variety of different blends. I personally and honestly can say, the salads taste unbelievable for a Jar product.
why? Mark would give you very little time most likely. He has a whole portfolio of businesses. You'd likely be dealing with his lackeys. The only useful thing from these sharks is the networking and future funding, but this guy already had all the relationships.
Poor Kevin.... he was the more obvious choice as he had experience with Plated and helped get it sold for 300 million dollars.... but as a side note, 10$ for a salad is too expensive. I can get a bag of salad for 4.50 and make my own dressing
This guy went to my university (Temple) and I’m in a entrepreneurship creativity class. My professor was using him as an example for our class, and it’s cool to see that he’s on Shark Tank

It’s not about loving someone’s style. It’s you matching your product with the right shark. What that means is, a particular shark may be well versed with a certain niche as compared to another shark. If you actually look at the stats, Lori’s picks have been more profitable than most picks because she usually picks niches that are well aligned with her expertise. Being a billionaire doesn’t necessarily mean you are going to succeed at every business you invest in. You should see the losses that billionaires have incurred over the years in various businesses simply because of the knowledge gap. Nonetheless they deserve their respect.
@@KiloBravo90 I mean, it's only common sense that a billionaire will incur more losses... precisely because they have more money invested. A billionaire losing 1% is ofc more than a millionaire losing 1%. That said I really want to see where you saw the stats where it indicates that Lori's picks have been more profitable. I want to see whether they were more profitable in *TOTAL* , like out of 10 businesses Lori had more profit or whether as "percentages" more profitable, like 5 out of 10 businesses are up in revenue.
There is no way I'd pay $9 to $11 for a mason jar salad. As its loosely packaged enough to literally shake in the jar, you are not getting the full volume of the container. I'll make my own for less than $3 each.
@@emdee7744 You're just not the target demographic then. Some people in the comments here thinking that just because they dislike something that it means this product will universally be disliked...
@@emdee7744 You're the same kind of person that complains about a potato chip bag not being "full". You're buying it by product weight, not volume. And that extra room is necessary so you can mix it with a shake. But I do agree that it's way too expensive for only a salad.
The product isn’t really meant for buying it at grocery store then taking it home and eating it. Primarily for on the go people. Or people in a bind and just need something that isn’t unhealthy yet still filling.
Kevin is like that kid of the class who irritates everyone until all other kids stop talking to him and eventually feel bad. He literally tries to the sharkiest. And then legit so many times like these, he just sits and the other sharks snatch the deals. lol
It's also tv they do things for ratings ppl assume not realizing it's all an act..no one reads clause or hears they only actually do 30 percent of deals made on show
@@faizsaid8286 whatever you say Mark cuban and several other sharks say lots of deals agreed upon don't go thru its easy to look it up yourself than to just say something just to be part of a statement
The hotel I worked at pre-covid had these for the guests. The guests loved them, they were very popular. Ive tried them myself and they are actually really good! Wish him the best of luck.
Kevin always has the most balanced deals where the shark doesn’t get what he really wants and the entrepreneur doesn’t get everything he wants, its a good compromise at least they leave half happy. most people just get scared when they hear debt and interest.
I feel so bad for Kevin! I really do. First time he's made a reasonable offer and even paired up with Lori at first. Then gets backstabbed in the end...
I literally made salad jars out of Mayo jars everyday as a school lunch back in my obsessive "need to lose weight" days, and this guy turns it into a business... well done.
its a business deal, its not like they had a deal and the guy backed out of it and went with them instead...which still isn't personal but people would not trust you as much.
Out of everyone I’d say Kevin is the most harshest but the most nicest he save’s entrepreneurs from not having a deal with someone and also he starts bidding wars for company’s who don’t valuate them self as big yet but he sees the future in it.
I've been binge watching Dragon's Den and coming back to Shark Tank, and it's wild how theatrical and exuberant most of the pitches on Shark Tank are in comparison. I've noticed they are almost sing-songy in a way by comparison.
Mark's always the last to speak because he knows Entrepreneurs will wait for him. He's got so many catchy lines like: "As a Billionaire..." "As a Major sports franchise owner..."
Certainly not something for the grocery store but if placed in areas like office buildings, airports, subway stations then people will pay that for quick on the go meals
@@HydrateYoSelf Of course you’re correct. Everything you make yourself is going to be cheaper than if someone else makes it. But that doesn’t stop people from buying sandwiches, burgers, etc. that other people made. Some people are willing to pay extra for the convenience.
Mistake not using Kevin. He took a going bankrupt company and sold it for 340 Million. I get everyone wants a deal with Mark but come on this is MR. Wonderfuls! realm.
Yes. Mark's better at playing the room and being ruthless, but I don't think his track record with fulfilling deals is good. He's full of it, and rich enough to get away with that behavior. Bezos/Musk Mindset.
@@FungusMossGnosis People who come on the show immediately come in waiting Mark as a partner while underestimating the value of what the other sharks bring to the table. It gets annoying
It's just a salad . A few dried topping, some fresh toppings and salad dressing it has a short shelf life , jars are heavy and too small. What company is going to recycle them if they don't sell it goes into the dump. Logistic weight rotten garbage.
This company got an investor in Shark Tank, in which Mark Cuban and Lori Greiner invested. In November 2022, it has become available at more than 31+ locations in Philadelphia. This company is working on expanding its salad jars internationally. Along with the United States, it is also working on shipping the product to Canada and Europe. In November 2022, the annual revenue of this company has exceeded $ 4.5 million.\

Being a billionaire doesn’t necessarily mean you are going to succeed at every business you invest in. You should see the losses that billionaires have incurred over the years in various businesses simply because of the knowledge gap. Nonetheless they deserve their respect.
@@KiloBravo90 I mean, it's only common sense that a billionaire will incur more losses... precisely because they have more money invested.
A billionaire losing 1% is ofc more than a millionaire losing 1%.
That said I really want to see where you saw the stats where it indicates that Lori's picks have been more profitable.
I want to see whether they were more profitable in *TOTAL* , like out of 10 businesses Lori had more profit or whether as "percentages" more profitable, like 5 out of 10 businesses are up in revenue.
Lori and Mark duo has so many deals my god
this guy is incredibly smart and confident. knows it all. good for him.
i love how mark appreciated people. he always does whenever the enterpreneur has done something amazing.
I would have loved to hear Kevin say "you're dead to me"
I literally just saw someone eating from this salad jar a few days ago. Not going to lie, the salad looked pretty damn good up close lol.
There is no way I'd pay $9 to $11 for a mason jar salad. As its loosely packaged enough to literally shake in the jar, you are not getting the full volume of the container. I'll make my own for less than $3 each.
@@emdee7744 I paid $12 for this salad. It was great!
@@emdee7744 You're just not the target demographic then. Some people in the comments here thinking that just because they dislike something that it means this product will universally be disliked...
@@emdee7744 You're the same kind of person that complains about a potato chip bag not being "full". You're buying it by product weight, not volume. And that extra room is necessary so you can mix it with a shake. But I do agree that it's way too expensive for only a salad.
The product isn’t really meant for buying it at grocery store then taking it home and eating it. Primarily for on the go people. Or people in a bind and just need something that isn’t unhealthy yet still filling.
Kevin is like that kid of the class who irritates everyone until all other kids stop talking to him and eventually feel bad.
He literally tries to the sharkiest. And then legit so many times like these, he just sits and the other sharks snatch the deals. lol
It's also tv they do things for ratings ppl assume not realizing it's all an act..no one reads clause or hears they only actually do 30 percent of deals made on show
@@davidgray7907 cap
@@faizsaid8286 whatever you say Mark cuban and several other sharks say lots of deals agreed upon don't go thru its easy to look it up yourself than to just say something just to be part of a statement
10:28 mark: lets shake that salad, me shaking the glass of water in my hand😅
I fuggin love this guys personality!!!! He was IN CONTROL!!! Not nervous at all and without being arrogant!
I loved it when Lori Greiner called herself a “Lone Shark”, but at 9% isn’t Kevin the Loan Shark?
I like how Mark cut Kevin out of the deal. Kevin's face wrote "where is that coming from ?" hahaha
I laughed when mark said he was a billionaire and daymon said must be nice to say that😂
One of the rare times where Kevin was actually going into this deal as honest as possible
The hotel I worked at pre-covid had these for the guests. The guests loved them, they were very popular. Ive tried them myself and they are actually really good! Wish him the best of luck.
I have been waiting for so long for mark to flex that he’s richer than that entire panel combined lol
He is for a reason!!!! He's smart!!!
Kevin’s expressions are priceless! 😅
I love his go-getter attitude. He took $1,000 and ran with it. When he ran into issues, he pivoted successfully to the point that he's gonna go far.
Kevin always has the most balanced deals where the shark doesn’t get what he really wants and the entrepreneur doesn’t get everything he wants, its a good compromise at least they leave half happy. most people just get scared when they hear debt and interest.
I feel so bad for Kevin! I really do. First time he's made a reasonable offer and even paired up with Lori at first. Then gets backstabbed in the end...
8:18 I'm calling bs on Lori, I feel like 90% of her deals are with Mark.
Her " Maaark" has been heard so often
She loves mark
They compliment each other in terms of what they bring to a business so so well to be fair
That was an NFL-level blindside tackle on Kevin.
He was smart to get Lori since she is the best in retail. 2 Sharks is just a better deal and to add that a Shark in her field is cherry on top
I literally made salad jars out of Mayo jars everyday as a school lunch back in my obsessive "need to lose weight" days, and this guy turns it into a business... well done.
Mr. Wonderful looks so sad when these things happen, can't help but feel bad.
You know at the end of the day Kevin has a lot of class What they did was nasty. But he didn’t say a word
Because he knows he would have done the same exact thing to any of them if he could.
its a business deal, its not like they had a deal and the guy backed out of it and went with them instead...which still isn't personal but people would not trust you as much.
Mark just minding his own business still eating the salad 😂
Out of everyone I’d say Kevin is the most harshest but the most nicest he save’s entrepreneurs from not having a deal with someone and also he starts bidding wars for company’s who don’t valuate them self as big yet but he sees the future in it.
When Kevin shows interest in a business, everyone else pays attention. His grasp on the workings of different types of businesses is just phenomenal.
I've been binge watching Dragon's Den and coming back to Shark Tank, and it's wild how theatrical and exuberant most of the pitches on Shark Tank are in comparison. I've noticed they are almost sing-songy in a way by comparison.
Everybody gangster until Mark Cuban drops the B-word
Kevin is all heart, I love him!
Mark is really smart. He has made science out of Business. Always amazed at how he reasons.
Mark's always the last to speak because he knows Entrepreneurs will wait for him. He's got so many catchy lines like:
"As a Billionaire..."
"As a Major sports franchise owner..."
Daymonds reaction to Marks statement 😂😂😂
9:15 SAVAGE. Lmfao. Daymond felt that. 🤣
That "Congratulations" from Kevin really hit hard.
Mark vs Kevin is always a classic
Wowza. 500k for 10% was a steal I remember when the sharks sometimes would ask 20% for 200k or less lol.
Barbra: “i’m not in the episode, i’m out, and for that reason i’m out”
This never gets old.... lmao, and for that reason I'm also out.
@@jordankyte9203 i am just here for barbara comments :p
Haha Mr "wonderful" had that look of WTF just happened on his face lol
Kevins reaction is priceless...
Love this guy.
10:32 THAT “congratulations…” by Kevin, bro he was crying that he got kicked out of the deal
I would be loving to remind people that I’m billionaire Too MARK. 😂😂👍👏👏
$10 for a 1 serving salad is way too much. Not sure why I would go for this vs other packaged salads.
I was thinking the same thing. But, if it's really THAT good then people will pay it. The jar was a pretty good size. Time will tell.
Smoked salmon isn’t all that cheap. I guess it would depend on how much salmon.
Certainly not something for the grocery store but if placed in areas like office buildings, airports, subway stations then people will pay that for quick on the go meals
Exactly. I can buy a bag of salad for 4.50 and make my own dressing
@@HydrateYoSelf Of course you’re correct. Everything you make yourself is going to be cheaper than if someone else makes it. But that doesn’t stop people from buying sandwiches, burgers, etc. that other people made. Some people are willing to pay extra for the convenience.
“I stayed at home today by myself and ate a toaster strudel while watching the wheel of fortune, and for that reason I’m out”- Barbara 2021
The way they react when Mark addresses the elephant in the room that he's way richer than the rest of them
Look at the guy's confidence! Wow. Started with $1000 and now we're here!
Daymond really felt mark's flex. 9:15 for the next 15 seconds
Mistake not using Kevin. He took a going bankrupt company and sold it for 340 Million. I get everyone wants a deal with Mark but come on this is MR. Wonderfuls! realm.
He should have stuck with Kevin and Lori’s initial deal
Yes. Mark's better at playing the room and being ruthless, but I don't think his track record with fulfilling deals is good. He's full of it, and rich enough to get away with that behavior. Bezos/Musk Mindset.
@@FungusMossGnosis People who come on the show immediately come in waiting Mark as a partner while underestimating the value of what the other sharks bring to the table. It gets annoying
Kevin helped sell Plated for 300$ million dollars.... he was the more obvious choice. Poor Kevin
It's just a salad . A few dried topping, some fresh toppings and salad dressing it has a short shelf life , jars are heavy and too small. What company is going to recycle them if they don't sell it goes into the dump. Logistic weight rotten garbage.
This company got an investor in Shark Tank, in which Mark Cuban and Lori Greiner invested. In November 2022, it has become available at more than 31+ locations in Philadelphia.
This company is working on expanding its salad jars internationally. Along with the United States, it is also working on shipping the product to Canada and Europe.
In November 2022, the annual revenue of this company has exceeded $ 4.5 million.\
This the first time the sharks didn’t go up and shake their hand after a deal
Kevin gets so much disrespect, he’s just playing the character everyone wants him to be. Mr wonderful!
At this point, I watch these episodes for Kevin.
I love when Kevin makes his royalty deals and Marc Cuban laughs or sticks up for the entrepreneur. One of the smartest men on this planet. I do feel bad for Kevin sometimes
We usually slander Barbra for always being out but lowkey can’t remember the last time I seen Robert do a deal 💀💀💀
Love Mark he is such a Dad
I forgot, how much fun your show is. have to watch all of you fabulous Sharks much more often. Good seeing you all again!
What a great deal loved it and I feel sorry for my guy Kevin hes my best shark :(
