| Final Deal | Deal was made on the show with sharks Daymond John for $150k for 45% of company. |
Jason Hanson is a former CIA officer. He has learned tricks of the trade, such as breaking free from duct-taped hands that he teaches in a two-day course.
Jason did $306k in sales with a $128k profit last year. The course initially targeted high-net-worth individuals, but the general public has greatly interested in taking the course. The Spy Escape and Evasion course cost $600. Jason flies to different cities to put the course on.
Jason recently moved from Washington D.C. to Utah. He plans to close a deal on a 320-acre property in Utah to convert into the spy training ranch. The investment would help build out the land to accommodate the camp.
Instead of the ranch, Robert plans to build out different content, such as a newsletter to upsell to people. Daymond was on the fence but ends up jumping in with an offer if Jason accepted right away, and Jason wastes no time accepting.

Jason, as any CIA agent would, was diligent in his research and preparation before the show. He identified that Daymond is interested in guns and hunting and owns land in New York. Jason went as far as establishing a connection with a friend of Daymonds to name-drop as a common ground on the show.

In season 6, we got an update that Jason constructed the 320-acre spy ranch in Utah. Daymond was initially against the idea until going over the numbers with Jason. Jason teaches evasive driving, firearms training, and hand-to-hand self-defense. In the eight months following Shark Tank, Spy Escape and Evasion reached lifetime sales of $2 million. Jason also sells various spy gadgets.
In 2023, Jason is looking for land to buy to learn and practice survival skills. Jason worries about a power grid attack. He also thinks self-reliance will be increasingly important due to young people getting away with violence more and more. He has four kids and enjoys teaching them safety tricks.
Jason wrote three books about spies, such as Spy Secrets That Can Save Your Life, which has over 2k reviews and a high rating on Amazon https://a.co/d/99Cs0sx https://spyescapeandevasion.comLink Preview
