G.O.A.T. Pet Products Shark Tank Update

G.O.A.T. Pet Products Shark Tank Pitch

Michelle Winowich appeared on Shark Tank Season 9, Episode 16, which aired on January 13, 2018, with pet speaking app allowing pet parents to communicate with their pets.

G.O.A.T. Pet Products is listed in the Software Tech category. In plain terms, the business is described as pet speaking app allowing pet parents to communicate with their pets.

G.O.A.T. Pet Products asked the Sharks for $499,000 for 9%, implying a valuation of about $5.5 million.

On the show, G.O.A.T. Pet Products made a listed deal with Robert Herjavec for $499,000 for 33.3%.

If treated as straight equity, the listed deal works out to about $1.5 million implied valuation, down from the original $5.5 million implied valuation.

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