What do the Shark Tank Investors say about Jungle Jumparoo
- Mark Cuban thinks as a self-contained from home business, this is great. Money isn’t the only issue
because you will get to the point where someone gets hurt. There are idiots everywhere. He doesn’t see himself being a good partner with them. He is out. - Daymond John said if you look at the 100 stores you are going to the finances don’t work in this for you to have a partner, so he is out.
- Kevin O’Leary thinks they have a massive problem because of the floor space that you need for the product, and so he is out.
- Lori Greiner talked about her earing stands that she went to a different JC Penny store each weekend and worked the stores demonstrating the product and she sold enough. Lori wants to know how are you going to get 100 of you? She is out.
- Robert Herjavec thinks his kids would not use it because they would get bored. They said kids spend an average of four hours on the Jungle Jumparoo. Robert has an immense amount of respect for someone building a product, but this doesn’t excite him, so he is out.
