Fizzics Shark Tank Pitch
Fizzics changes the way people drink beer on the road and at home. Unfortunately the beer doesn’t taste as good as it does from the tap when you drink from a can or a bottle. Place your can or bottle into the Fizzics container, and the beer is pressurized to deliver the great taste from draft.
They offer a taste comparison of the draft setup verses a can or bottled beer. Fizzics delivers the foam that provides a great taste.
The company just started shipping six months before their Shark Tank presentation and they have sales of $3.2 million. The product retails for $199 and costs $35.98 to manufacture. Phil and David did a crowdfunding campaign on IndieGoGo raising $250,000 and quit their jobs the next day.
Phil and David have found the head of the bear is the most critical element of the beer drinking experience. They utilize sound waves to compress the beer and create the head. Fizzics has multiple patents pending.
Fizzics is cashflow positive and are going to do $9 million and have $220,000 profit. They are doing a series A round at $2 million with a lead institutional investor. There are many VC’s but their is only one Shark Tank.

She agrees, but Phillip counters offering the full round at $2 million for 16.67% and it is a done deal with Lori and Mark.
