He said that the average man was not interested in learning about pricey new fashion accessories, they just want to know how they can get women.Īaron said that men are not encouraged to look nice, and when they do they are called names like “Metrosexual.” He stated that his clients would one up the bullies on the corporate ladder, and get the numbers of the women that rejected them. He did acknowledge that there are men’s fashion magazines but insisted that they only catered to the most attractive and wealthy men. Aaron claimed that there were “zero” resources for the average man to use to increase his confidence and dress with style. Robert seemed impressed by his candor, if not by the product. Apparently forgetting that Barbara was there, Aaron said that “as men,” they are motivated by sex and money, and he could help them get more of both of those things. He immediately got down to business and asked for $50,000 in exchange for 10% equity. Alpha M on Shark TankĪaron strode confidently on stage and introduced himself to the Sharks. Let’s see how the Sharks react to that news. Before going on Shark Tank, he only sold ten systems. He was offering this advice for the price of $297 for the DVD series. Image Consulting group aimed to assist men who needed assistance in the dating arena with personal grooming tips, style, fashion, and most importantly – self-confidence.

In 2006, he then decided that he might as well get paid for it! He developed a website, as well as a series of DVDs to help men get ready for a date.

Alpha M Now in 2018 – The After Shark Tank UpdateĪaron Marino, a self-described “male image consultant” and men’s style expert, first gave his valuable expert advice away for free to a friend that was nervous about getting ready for a date.Do we love the cause? Absolutely, but at the same time the mass-market appeal of this is likely still as much of a challenge as always because we live in a culture that is inherently selfish, and as a result of that, many teens just won’t want to use this since they won’t want to be told what to do. ReThink– We’re not seeing too much of an obvious change between now and when the app, designed to caution people (especially teenagers) from using potentially-damaging language while sending out various messages on their phones, first appeared on the show.
They’ll need to expand here and there, but more than that, they just gotta get people excited about wearing them.
The guys behind the company are marketing gurus, and they continue to understand that their business is more about awareness more so than upgrading a product that already seems to be well-reviewed. What we think they’re doing that is perhaps the most impressive is how they are getting on board a variety of influential people, whether it be Snoop Dogg, French Montana, or Antonio Brown (who appeared in the Tank with them), who can help get the word out about the product on a grassroots level. Judging from what we’re seeing online right now, that may be the case. ISlide– They opted to turn down a deal in the Tank, thinking obviously that they could make it on their own. We do think they could engage more than they are on social media to get the word out better. It could be good for people in need of more of a long-term pick-me-up, and we like that they seem to be doing some seasonal stuff for this time of year. If you’ve got a friend that’s sick, you want to get something there to them within a couple of hours as opposed to a couple of days. Spoonful of Comfort– We liked the idea of the product (a service that ships soup and other comfort items to a given daddress) when we first read up about it before the show, but there’s still the same issue here that we had when we first saw the pitch on TV: Timing. The timing for this episode repeating couldn’t be better, given that this really is one of those perfect holiday gifts if you know someone who’s an avid beer drinker. We really get the sense that this is a company that, since the show, has gone all out to prepare and market their products, whether it be their original system (which is designed to turn your ordinary beer into a fresh-from-the-tap experience), or a new model entitled the Waytap that is being sold at a slightly smaller price-point with some of the same features.
Fizzics– The biggest thing that we admire here more so than just about anything else is the hustle.
