Rikki Farrar walked into the Tank in Season 1, Episode 5 in the episode that aired September 6, 2009, bringing their Philadelphia, PA business with them. Good Grief Celebrations, the consumer services, pitched in the Business Services category, one of 42 business services businesses to brave the Tank across all 17 seasons.
On the carpet, the number was $50,000 for a 25% stake, which valued the company at $200K.
The sharks passed, and Good Grief Celebrations left without a deal. That's not always the end of the story. Some of Shark Tank's most successful companies were rejected on air and grew anyway, using the exposure (the "Shark Tank effect") to drive sales the sharks missed out on.
Good Grief Celebrations was one of 64 businesses to pitch in Season 1, where 27 deals got done. In the Business Services category overall, roughly 52% of pitches have landed a shark across the show's history.
