    Some of the most successful products on Sharktank have been simple products. Robert deserves credit for two reasons, one for sticking to his contrarian opinion to other sharks and the other for being considerate in his equity expectation.

    I think the ladies should try to come up with more practical use cases for example protecting those really expensive stilettos that’s over $1000 each. They kept saying to protect shoes from glass and that’s good but it’s such a niche product and most likely a one time purchase so the customer acquisition rate would be very high….
