ENTREPRENEUR: Rikki Farrar.
PITCH: Good Grief Celebrations, a funeral concierge service that writes the eulogy, officiates the funeral service and handles all the post-funeral family gatherings.
ASKING FOR: $50K for 25%
HER PITCH GOES SOUTH WHEN: Rikki says she goes into hospices with a comforting dog for the patients, then hands out her business cards. She admits she's just waiting for people to die. She explains that she came up with the idea for the business when her own mother passed away, and threw a party to celebrate her life, complete with a DJ and an open bar.
DO THE SHARKS BITE? No. Kevin O'Leary points out that the reason Rikki only made $11K in sales so far is because she doesn't own a funeral home, which should be an essential part to her business.
