Scooter Gear on Shark Tank!

Post by ericalm »

My pals Arlene and Desiree at GoGo Gear will be making their case to investors for their line of women's (andy now men's) riding gear this Friday, March 23 on ABC.

I'm super proud of them not just for making it on the show but for sticking through launching a gear company during some tough times for the powersports industry. It's really a testament to how much they've put into the business and how strongly they believe in it.

I hope the Sharks can handle a pair of strong, opinionated women entrepreneurs. Cuban could wind up crying by the end! ;)

Full disclosure: They've paid me to do stuff for them in the past. I still occasionally consult for them, but it's been a couple years since I've done any paid work for the company. I posted this because they're friends and this is relevant to the site!

I hope they do well and don't get screwed!

I also hope this doesn't mean that they are hurting for money and the business is in danger.

Takes a lot of capital to grow a business like this and they have big plans!
