On Season 12 of Shark Tank, entrepreneur Akeem Shannon from St Louis, Missouri makes a spectacular entrance He walks into the tank dressed in a space suit, sticks his phone to a glass and launches in a rap He describes his product, Flipstik, as « an on-demand crutch » and with it « gravity is under your control » And he promises to « generate a return on your investment on your $ 100,000,000 »
Flipstik is a super slim device that allows you to prop up your phone while on the go.It can stick to almost any surface – glass, tile, vinyl, marble, leather, wood, etc. (You remove your phone giving it a little touch)
Sharks love Akeem’s rap pitch Barbara Corcoran yells « great job, great job » and Daymond John says, « I have to say that rap was one of the best raps we’ve ever seen on this stage » Mark Cuban steps in and says, « Best Shark Tank Rap Ever » [Related: 27 Favorite Shark Tank Products]
In the tank, Akeem seeks a $ 100,000 investment in exchange for 20% equity Few phone-related products have made deals on Shark Tank – although Daymond John has invested in SoundBenders, a sound amplifier magnet that clips onto iPad, and Mark Cuban (with Robert Herjavec who isn’t on this episode) has invested $ 500,000 in PolarPro, the company known for its snap-on filters for GoPros and drones
