The Sharks’ Reaction to Bouquet Bar

Guest shark Sara Blakely says they’re “beautiful” and all the sharks seem impressed with their boxes. Daymond John acknowledges that it’s “quality stuff.”

Kevin O’Leary likes the potential but worries about the customer acquisition costs. In four months, they have done nearly $100,000 in sales.

Lori Greiner points out that the box reminds her of Sugarfina candy boxes. She thinks they need to better differentiate themselves and focus on the floral side of the company and goes out, followed by Blakely.

John thinks it would be tough to educate people about how they’re gifting “wrong” and goes out.

O’Leary likes the company and the potential for the wedding industry, but goes out.

After some convincing, Mark Cuban decides to jump in with an offer of $150,000 for 20 percent. They accept.
