Kory Keogan, from Ottawa, Ontario, along with Erica Vincelli and Steve Burton, asked for $150,000 for 15% of EzClipse Inc, a company that makes magnetic clip-on shades for pot lights that install without tools or touching electrical wiring. The shades retail from $17.99 to $79.99, with the top seller at $39.99; cost to manufacture is about $8 and wholesale is $20, giving a blended margin of about 70%. The company has been selling for six months with $50,000 in sales, has invested over $500,000 to date, and is in contract discussions with Costco and has signed on with Home Hardware with reorders already placed.
Michael Wekerle offered $150,000 for 20% equity, citing work still needed on the business. Joe Mimran went out citing insufficient proof of concept and a high valuation, Michele Romanow went out unsure the product solved a widespread problem, and Manjit Minhas and Jim Treliving both declined to make separate offers, deferring to Michael's. The founders accepted Michael Wekerle's offer of $150,000 for 20%.
