Brian Bloch was tardy for the party on “Shark Tank” Season 12.
The thirsty “Shark Tank” investors didn’t love it, despite Mitchell’s enthusiasm.
“Hey, sharks!
“he kicked offwith a massive grin.
Wonderful didn’t manage to raise even the pretense of a smile.
“This is the chiller.
It’s a portable beverage chiller with freezing gel built in!”
Let the comedy sketch begin.
A harried Bloch ran in, lugging a massive bag of ice and a traditional polystyrene drinks cooler.
“Sorry, I’m late.
I had to buy ice,” he announced (via YouTube).
As Mitchell pointed out, the Chill System doesn’t need ice.
Still, it doesn’t exactly have many drinks to chill, either.
But what about Chill Systems?
Did they becomeone of the most successful products from “Shark Tank?
“Or did they die a hideous death like the fairground-esque fake it till you make itskinny mirror?
What happened to Chill Systems on ‘Shark Tank?’
The obvious flaw of the Chill System was, well, obvious.
As it only provides for three drinks, there’s no doubt you’d save money.
Kevin O’Leary was the first to address the elephant in the room.
“It only holds three cans?”
he asked (per YouTube).
“I don’t know about you, but I’ll get through this in about 45 minutes.”
It was downhill from there.
“We’ve heard that feedback before from macho men on the internet,” Mitchell shot back.
“What are the sales?”
Robert Herjavec asked, cutting straight to the chase.
“We’ve done $111,000 to date,” Brian Bloch replied.
“That’s over the last two years.”
There were raised eyebrows all around.
Block explained that they’d raised $51,000 on Kickstarter.
“What does it cost?”
“Our product cost is awful,” Bloch admitted.
Bloch admitted it cost $37 to make the product.
The heavy bag of ice and polystyrene cooler looked better by the minute.
Bloch announced they’d since managed to bring the cost down to $18.
However, they were selling the product to retailers at a loss.
Herjavec was visibly stunned.
The investors were all out.
Chill Systems after ‘Shark Tank’
According toShark Tanks Talks, both contestants came from stellar backgrounds.
Brian Bloch worked in finance for Apple, meanwhile, Chase Mitchell was a top sales associate at Google.
They’d quit their careers and still weren’t earning a cent.
“Do you want me to make a call to get your jobs back?”
Kevin O’Leary quipped (per YouTube).
Mitchell and Bloch turned down the offer undoubtedly the best they’d received all day.
According toTechie Gamers, the entrepreneurs held on until 2022, selling the product through their website.
However, theChill Systemsweb domain is now up for sale a bargain at just $25,000.
Their last Instagram post was in July 2021.
It shows Mitchell holding a Chill Systems bag with three cans on the beach.
“Waiting for football season to start like .
“A wise man once told me that anything worth doing is worth doing right.
He lists Chill Systems as one of his endeavors, with a finishing date of January 2022.
