Delaware’s own Markevis Gideon knows you only get one chance in the Shark Tank.
So when he NERDiT NOW learned his business was selected to appear on the hit ABC show, he studied old episodes and perfected his pitch for weeks, hoping to come away with a big investment in their start-up venture.
Last March, when his baby boy Malachi was only 9 days old, Gideon drove to Kentucky to attend the last open call of this year for Shark Tank episodes that would air in 2019.
After getting the thumbs up from producers, Gideon and his business partners Jake Voorhees and Jonathan Hoxter — both graduates of University of Delaware — made their way to California last May with a game plan to attract two particular sharks they thought would be most interested in investing in their business.
Their Shark Tank episode will air on Sunday, October 27th at 9 pm on ABC. (Via Townsquaredelaware.com)
