| Final Deal | All Sharks went Out |
Susie Taylor and Steve Taylor were frustrated with the poorly made baby bibs available to buy. Instead of wasting money on bibs that didn't work, Susie designed her own under the brand Bibbitec.
Bibbitec is made in America and, according to Susie and Steve, never stains, never smells, and never holds an odor. The Bibbitec bib gets worn through the arms like a baby snuggie rather than a small cloth fastened around the neck.
The sharks find Bibbitect way overpriced at $24 to $50 each with $15 costs, but Susie and steve assure the sharks that Bibbitec lasts four years. Meanwhile, moms spend $400 a year on bibs that they throw out.
Susie and Steve have put $75k into Bibbitec. In about four years, Bibbitec has sold 2000 units. In the last year, Bibbibop has done $17k in sales. Susie says that the Bibbitec doesn't come first; her kids do. Susie and Steve seem a bit lost in what to do and need a shark to guide them to the pathway of success.
Unfortunately, none of the sharks want to join them on that journey. Kevin believes it's time to take Bibbitec behind the barn and shoot it. Susie and Steve don't have any more money to put in, but the pain of admitting four years was unsuccessful may be too great for them to accept, so they trudge on with desperate hope.
