Nicholas George and Kevin MaC from PA pitched TIKPIK in Shark Tank Season 15, Episode 6 (aired Nov 3, 2023). They asked for $75,000 in exchange for 10% equity, valuing the business at $750K. The entrepreneurs walked away with a deal from Mark Cuban: $75,000 for 16%. That put the final valuation at $468.8K, 38% below what they originally asked for.

What happened to TIKPIK after Shark Tank?

Still in business Last checked October 3, 2026

TIK PIK makes guitar picks that clip onto the instrument until a player needs them, co-founded by Nicholas George and Kevin Mac. Mark Cuban invested on Shark Tank Season 15 after a back-and-forth with Lori Greiner over the deal. The company later signed with Guitar Center, which carries the picks in all of its 300-plus stores along with an exclusive six-pack, a partnership featured in a Shark Tank update segment. Music Inc. reported Fender-branded versions were planned for 2025.

✅ The on-air deal closed after due diligence.
