Cut Buddy Shark Tank Pitch

Joshua Esnard appeared on Shark Tank Season 9, Episode 11, which aired on November 11, 2017, with beard shaping tool and hair cutting guide.

Cut Buddy is listed in the Cosmetics Beauty category. In plain terms, the business is described as beard shaping tool and hair cutting guide.

Cut Buddy asked the Sharks for $300,000 for 10%, implying a valuation of about $3 million.

On the show, Cut Buddy made a listed deal with Daymond John for $300,000 for 20%.

If treated as straight equity, the listed deal works out to about $1.5 million implied valuation, down from the original $3 million implied valuation.

This pitch is included as context for the more important question: what happened after Shark Tank.
