We must admit. Shark Tank is one of our favorite shows. How could a show about entrepreneurship NOT be? If you’re unfamiliar with the show, hopeful entrepreneurs pitch their business ideas to investors (sharks) in an attempt to gain a partnership and grow their business. The show has been on the air since 2009.

If you want to be on Shark Tank, the show is holding auditions at the Veil Pavilion, inside the Silverton Casino Lodge, starting at 3pm on February 20th. You’ll want to make sure that you get there early, as they will only see the first 500 applicants. Once inside the audition, you’ll have 60 seconds to pitch you and your idea. So, make sure you come prepared with your elevator speech.

Before you attend the audition, make sure you have your application completed and that you bring it with you. You can download the application here.

The Shark Tank website states, “It is imperative that you complete your Application prior to the Open Call because there are a lot of detailed questions on there that you may not have the answers to at the Open Call.”

Good Luck!

Barbara Corcoran – Barbara borrowed $1,000 from her boyfriend and quit her job as a waitress to start a tiny real estate company in New York City?
