Beardaments Founder Lands Deal on Shark Tank, Sales Skyrocket
Entrepreneur Jason McOmber has taken the festive season by storm with his unique invention, Beardaments. These tiny, unisex Christmas ornaments are designed specifically for beards, adding a touch of sparkle to facial hair. The idea struck McOmber at an ugly sweater party, leading him to launch his innovative company.
McOmber initially started with Christmas ornaments, but the success of his light-up beard ornament with LED lights inspired him to expand. He sought $150,000 for a 10 percent stake in Beardaments to fund this growth. His appearance on ABC's Shark Tank in season 11 caught the attention of investor Kevin O'Leary, who offered $150,000 for a 25 percent equity in the company. McOmber accepted the deal, marking a significant milestone for Beardaments.
The company, founded under the name of Zachary Beard, has seen remarkable growth. Last year, McOmber raked in over $400,000 in sales and projected a staggering $700,000 for the current Christmas season. Beardaments' products are now available online on Amazon and the official website, catering to a wide range of customers.
With a creative idea and a successful pitch on Shark Tank, Jason McOmber has turned Beardaments into a thriving business. From humble beginnings, the company has expanded its product range to include beard oil, glitter, and other accessories, making it a one-stop-shop for beard grooming and festive fun.
