The Swilt – Ivory Tenelle Shark Tank pitch

posted on March 19, 2018

The Swilt

Ivory Tennelle created The Swilt, a combination sweatshirt blanket capable of going with you anywhere. Unsnap the blanket portion and you have are in total warmth and comfort.

There's even a foot pocket built in to The Swilt sweatshirt. She lined the foot pocket, making it water proof and easily cleanable.

Sales for The Swilt at the time of Ivory's Shark Tank pitch are a total of 100 units, but her goal is to get the word out by optimizing her website. She needs to have the website redone to make it more functional. She is currently doing flea markets, and people think she is too big for the markets.

Ivory tells the Sharks her product is for Soccer moms who are sitting outside in the cold, for people in the airport, and sports fans anywhere.

Ivory hopes that the Sharks are going to take this product and market it for her. Mark thinks the product looks thirteenth century, like something for a monk or grim reaper.
