If I got a dollar for every time I've been told we should be on Shark Tank, I could retire a happy girl.
The truth is, we politely declined. Twice. If you're thinking, you're crazy, girl, just hear me out.
I never wanted to feel like a sell-out, not being able to control the perception of our brand, and the thought of getting grilled by Mr. Wonderful didn't seem so wonderful to me.
So when we were invited to appear on the show HATCHED, I thought, now this is more up my alley! A chance to showcase our eatCleaner food wash and wipes in a 'softer' way that really allowed me to tell the story and prove it in a pop-up store concept in front of real customers. Then, when we were invited to be on HSN after one of the judges fell in love with our products, with the opportunity to demonstrate our products in front of an audience of millions, I got really, really excited.
We've now been on 5 times. This past airing, we were selected as a host pick. So out of all the products HSN offers, eatCleaner was featured as a favorite product of HSN Host Shivan. Pretty cool honor, I'd say.
Each time, I'm ahhhhh-mazed at the customer response. They see the broccoli magic trick and the phones start lighting up. This past show, we SOLD OUT of our allotted inventory in record time. That just said to me, the proof is in the visuals. Once people see the difference, they get it. And the fact it's the only wash that helps extend produce shelf life? That seals the deal.
So, it turns out being a sell-out isn't such a bad deal after all. When the context is right.
Fit Tribe, it's summer....you're eating all kinds of fresh produce right now. And as HSN Host Shivan says, if you don't wash it right - Yucky poo.
