Believe it or not, amidst a pandemic this year we somehow got selected for a season 12 Shark Tank Audition.
Of the 50,000 applications submitted each season, we made it to the video submission round.
Since we had kids at home and were quarantined during the height of the pandemic, we spent our time trying to put together a ten minute audition video in our basement.
Watching an episode, we meandered upon the Shark Tank audition page where we found the online application. We filled it out, sort of laughing as we hit the submit button. 
No pressure or anything.
We were told that if selected to pitch to the sharks we would be contacted just a few weeks prior to filming and if we were not selected then we would hear nothing at all. It was a long wait, especially since COVID pushed back filming!Mike was anxious to make a deal with Barbara. I was hoping not to get thrown out for the little cockroaches Mr. Wonderful would probably call us.
Unfortunately, we didn’t have to worry about any of that.
When season 12 aired, we were a bit disappointed. 
No one called.
It sure was fun making it through a couple of rounds of the casting process, though.
Of the 50,000 applications a year, we made it pretty far and for that we feel pretty blessed. It was a fun experience and it was just one step in the process of entrepreneurship we needed to take.
We mashed up of a bit of our Shark Tank audition video and added some commentary for you to enjoy.

Deciding whether to lease or buy a car can be complicated, particularly when considering the tax implications. While both options have their own sets of advantages, leasing often provides more immediate financial flexibility, particularly in terms of lower monthly payments and initial costs. For those using a vehicle for business purposes, leasing can offer significant tax benefits, such as the ability to deduct a portion of lease payments.
