Shark Tank US | Can Apolla Grab A Deal From The Sharks?
/ sptv
You knew Lori was going to make an offer the minute she started doing an infomercial at 3:50.
Immediately, I said, I Want! But put off by 32-40. Hopefully Lori can bring the price down. I'll buy. I didn't know Lori was a pro dancer, good figure. She's so cute.
I like how Lori started raving about the socks when she realized she would be investing in them. She's pretty clever at boosting the sales wrapped in "just her opinion" lol
Yeah not gonna lie- that was a BOSS move by a BOSS woman for real. The psychology behind the moment she realized that they would go to 25 even after the counter- was some high level stuff.
Lori just did a free QVC presentation 😅
Gotta love the evil shark laughs at 9:45 when she tells them it’s going to be an offer they might not like lol
Evil???
@@igo0di yes
It's strange that the sharks didn't already realize that they sell socks for 40 dollars when she told them they sold 100,000 socks and made 4 million.
I.4 million
@@Naturefan354 1.4 million last year.
That's the problem. Sharks want to invest in something which has millions of buyers not thousands. And this product isn't for the masses. 40 usd for a sock? You can buy a lot of stuff with 40 dollars
@Abhishek Khampariya it can explode if they get a shark to put it out there. Construction workers or any hard labor.
@@akhampariya1 There is on the market similar socks... for 10-15 dollars who does the same job.
I'm gonna assume that the other sharks left this one for Lori in particular because she has the "Educate & Demonstrate" platform. They do that sometimes so that the remaining shark can get the highest equity possible for the level of expertise.
That’s what happens when you only have one party to negotiate with. It’s not a groundbreaking thing.
@@stevenduckering8445 Who said it was?...I'm saying this for those who seem confused by the lack of offers, read the comments. If you know the info simply read and move on.🤷🏽♀️
Unless ur Barbara and Kevin decides to troll u and help the entrepreneurs get a better deal 😂 he’s really an unsung hero that way 🤌🏼
they didnt invest because they didnt want to.
i like how after Lori mentions she was a dancer the other sharks chime in saying they were dancers too just to be out🤣
It was almost full on ridiculous
@@whatsup7535 No, I believe they wanted to keep the vibe positive, since this product actually helps (former)dancers
I am shocked that they weren't leaping to get a piece of their company. Bombas sell for quite a lot despite not having a grand purpose like these do. I got myself a few pairs of their performance socks and they provide INSTANT relief! They deserved more recognition than this honestly
Really? I was thinking of getting a pair.
Bombas popped up next let me watch lol
I loved bombas socks at first...then they got a cheaper manufacturer and it shows. Now I'm out for all socks.
@@bodhi1462 why would you ever buy Bombas socks, bro
Oh wow , I’m grabbing now just because of this comment. Thanks
Athlete + Foot + Greek name = ?
Not naming it Achilles was the biggest miss ever.
Kevin being out of the deal seems to be sense of relief for them when they said thank you.
Kevin has done some deals that were great for the entrepreneurs. He has quite a network, social presence, team. It's not what you "give away" but what you get. You can't buy these guys time. They get approached daily with requests.
@@jmharris251 Totally agree with you
They wanted Lori and Emma
I'm so glad these two got a deal, they were amazing!
As a dancer who has these socks, I can tell you, these are awesome! I highly recommend them!
Kevin: DOLLLARS DOLLARS 😂
This guy ahhahah, never fails to amuse us
I love him 🤣🤣🤣
Hell back in the 90’s I spent $20-30 on soccer socks that had no support. Times really do change!
Thanks for uploading! My Lunch Break was 10X better!!
hahaha same!
Hell yeah lol
Nothing like food and shark tank
Never in my life will I spend $40 on a pair of socks.
Me neither
If you had foot issues and these helped, you would...or you'd be dumb..
Well its premium the sharks said it themselves it works for pain so 40 dollars is quite good
You might if you start having foot pain and foot problems!
When foot problems start hitting you, you might consider to buy these thing lol😂
in the end they go from happily dancing to crying their eyes out in the span of 5 seconds 😂
Lori is obsessed she has the sock on with her heel 😂😂😂❤❤❤
It actually looked cute on.
stop the madness!! - kevin 🤣🤣 that was funny to me
I bought similar socks from Japan about 10 years ago for $20 😂
Every sharks was like wow wow at first then almost every one of them was out out 😅
Even millionaires are looking at $40 socks and going whoa. That’s a problem. And that’s when they went out.
Lorrie has much better foresight than the others. No wonder her return on investments from this show are so much higher.
Where did you see their ROI? Is it public information?
@@Brian-hd4rb yes
I was a gymnast since childhood and danced ballet since 3. Only those who have been athletes will understand this product. I'm like Lori, I don't like socks! However would buy these simply because I understand the benefits. I live a ligament injury caused by gymnastics. I wish they had long over the knee/thigh versions.
Selling the patent, or even the whole company, to companies like Nike, Adidas, or Puma, really is the most viable way forward. They need to continue the research, that's expensive, and also they need to fight all the time to push the unit price down, for that reason they need to partner with some party with a huge budget and can manufacture at a huge scale
your 100% right
It’s interesting to me how you know that!! I don’t have a mind like that for numbers.
@@stuff1784 it’s because I’m currently doing my own independent research since 2020 about AI’s implementations in poultry farming. So I know how hard, and expensive, a research could be
They're 100% worth the price.. you'll spend more in painkillers or random cream or whatever in your lifetime than a 1 time purchase for this
I will try a pair....I drive truck and my feet swelling up cuz of gravity driving for so long
do you own a pair?
@@Rubaduck What does the fox say?
@@Rubaduck yes
So you think ONE pair of socks will last you your entire life, eh? Boy, you sure haven’t thought that through AT ALL.
FYI, I typically have 25-30 pairs of socks at a given time, and they tend to wear out and get replaced every couple of years. You think I’m going to spend $1,000-1,200 on SOCKS every couple of years?? 🤣🤣
But hey, if you want to wear the same pair of socks every day and think they’re going to last decades, you do you.
Wow one of the best pitch and product I have seen !!
I love this! I hike most of the time and I always am looking for socks that compress your foot! ❤🎉
Brilliant, restrict blood flow to your extremities when you need it the most!
Some of the best presenters I’ve seen in years. Expensive, … but wonderfully presented by two very credible ladies. Thanks for the video.
Barbara “I was on my feet all the time when doing real estate. This could come in handy for more than just dancers and I think this product is so comfortable and your sales are great. And for those reasons im out.”
@Melissa C - your Barbara joke is ... NOT ... funny !
@@warriormanmaxx8991 you clearly have no sense of humor. Byeeeee
Omg, I need these asap!!
I want to try them but at 36$ a pair that's insane
10:06 "here's the problem, I love you" lol
all about the show !!
Havent watched the video yet but Barbara is out.
🙄. Real original.
People still comment Barbara is out in 2023?😬🤦🏾
@@CHAMPl982 I liked your comment, you`re just jealous because Ive got 14 huge likea
@@Dom-su9qb wow really impressive 🥱🥱
She still beat you to it,she didnt even show up !
$40 for a pair? Holy macaroni. These sharks are probably the only ones who can afford these. Skip food, buy a pair of those socks for this week instead.
Compression socks can be expensive. My mother had leg and foot issues. A pair that are so,so can run 50 dollars.
It's funny where the most replay is at 👀🤣🤣🤣
Mr. Wonderful doesn't have a clue what what are talking about til they heard the price 😂😂
I BELIEVE YOU ON THE SOCKS lol Kevin
The stirrup ones are cool!
The energy in this one is huuuge
I’m a Nurse and will definitely look into these! @Apollaperformance the medical community needs you!
I was totally thinking this too ! Nurses are on their feet all the time, and think about these for patients in nursing homes who struggle with this pain
@@Alexis-sw4kk get a comfortable pair of shoes
I teach dance and have 3 pairs because they are that great. The dance world considers them dance shoes which is why we don’t mind the price
Damn they almost made me cry...hold it together man.
Ahaha I love guessing the deals they are going to offer 😂😂
Lori is going to make a lot of money on this deal.
I love u k3vin haha 😂
Barbara: "I'm not on this episode and for that reason I'm out"
Thoguhgt Robert would be in for sure. HE was so impressed immediately and then was out lol.
There's a difference between being a customer and an investor in a business.
to be fair robert's interested and amazed at everything
Lori will split the production run into dancers only socks which are the ones selling now and less expensive mass market socks to use the name and pump up sales.
How well will these do in composite toe shoes walking for 12hrs in a warehouse
Seeing the reactions from the sharks within 2 minutes of their presentation I wrote down the company name to purchase a pair but when I heard their prices...nada. 😐
My exact same reaction 😢
Compression socks are expensive. I pay around $30 for a pair and I bought quite a few.
They are expensive but worth it. My daughter owns a pair for dancing and I have another pair on order. $40 for socks is better than a $500 mri and multiple doctors for chronic ankle injuries.
I need these socks!!
Kevin is awake from the moment when he hears about sales
nike elite socks was selling for $20 years so the price isnt that big of a deal.
My first thought of competition was the Nike elites. I remember them being comfortable as hell lol
Yes i also got reminded of the Nike elite socks
Robert always says "dalla" when someone reveals something
They're awesome
They got the best shark, congrats! Would like to distribute these socks in ASEAN.
Are the socks made of kevlar?
I can't believe almost all the sharks went out on this. If it was a keyholder that says welcome home,(that serves no purpose) you'll see them queuing up to make an offer. Thank goodness for Lori
Right
with millions in sales, there something that doesn't seem right and you can see it in how they didn't even try to negotiate that much, they were desperate for a deal
Revenue isn't everything, they hadn't even hit profitability despite 4 million in sales
Lori: "I'm going to make you an offer. It might not be one that you like."
Kevin: "Yeeeaahhhh!"
😂😂😂😂😂
The Sharks all just flexing about their dance backgrounds 😂
I need these socks 🧦
Good Job Like that .
I can’t believe how many people in the comments don’t understand this is a health and wellness product not just a sock. Their price tag is fair in my opinion
I understand need margins but that’s way to high unless it’s something you get sold in a podiatrist office
price point is too high for the mass market
I want Lori and Robert dance together they'll good as partners haha
Wow Great deal .
There's a variety of diabetic socks & leg braces with a diversity of compression & price points.
Also have them with zippers for longer ones, to get maximum fit, as you cant get the narrow part over the calf without losing compression.
I'd like to see how they'd do a longer sock
Everyone boasting but no one busting the moves!
I can't believe the some Sharks are shocked at the price. The socks are worth it!
No
@@damaiindah8587 not to you, but for people with foot pain likely yes. I had to wear compression socks for my calves working on concrete floors on my feet for 12 hours a day. Without them I couldn't sleep due to swelling and pain. I still had pain but it was manageable with compression socks. If something worked even better I would spend the money. I understand you would not and perhaps under any circumstances. But to respond "no" such as you did just understand you don't speak for me, you don't speak for others. I'm sure many other people out there would spend their money differently than you and have different values.
@@damaiindah8587 yes
You spent more in shoes 🤔
Thank You , Jenna , Cheap Bastards ! 🤣😂🤣😂
Is this socks company still good or shut down??
Good job Lori!
LOL what the hell was at 10:39?!
Two grown women walking hand in hand is ridiculously hilarious
Not really
@NN-fz4pd Now that I've had more time to think it over, it is definitely hilarious !
Uh…hasn’t compression socks been a thing for like decades???
@Jackie Cheng - re: "Uh" = do you tend to start off sentences with "Uh?"
Yes, and seemingly cheaper
What's with the Female Owned business stupidity? You don't hear men saying Men Owned company.
What is the brand or sock company name?
Apolla
Ya kevin sales , open source marketing , advertising
The most watched part is 1:40 . I wonder why...
Robert is so handsome 😅
Considering all sharks agrees on the quality, surprised to see just one offer . Sometimes I feel sharks want quick return on investments with lot of existing sales rather than projected sales after exposure and their involvement.. once they scale the business and bring the cost down, they will explode especially with Lori!
Like the stategy of Lory of trading, very smart and greedy when she has whole table for herself, and keeps calm, like saying no other way to go.
I’d never pay that much for a synthetic sock
So if i jumped off a skyscraper with those socks on with NO PARACHUTE..any chance i can experience the comfort of those socks while airborne?
When i was little i would always take my underwear and socks off haha
me watching this with a sprained ankle
im happy for them
Funnily enough, I am pretty sure Apolla defrauded me. Never received my order. No answer to my emails. Not even a confirmation. They even misspell "physical therapist" on their own website. I would not buy from them again.
Sounds like you might have ordered from a fake website?
Rugby is the hardest sport actually
Barbara: “I was once gifted socks by my ex boyfriend before he broke up with me and for that reason I’m out.”
As a dancer, I’m not shocked at the $40 price point at all. It’s like an investment into a dancer’s career if they truly do help with injuries
Robert was out as soon as they cut him off.
I know an Austrian painter who did that 💀 1:09
I am not a business person so why is 2% return rate good and what were they referencing that to?
Just means how many people buy and then return the product after their purchase, so 2% means 98% buy and don’t return the product
@@Monocleeee ohhhhh makes sense. Thank you
I knew Robert wouldn’t budge when he didn’t mention his dancer wife at all in this n
40$ is the price of my shoes 🙂
This would’ve been a good royalty deal
When you have foot pain, you will spend whatever to ease the pain when you walk.
