If you watch Shark Tank, you know the name Tower Paddle Boards. They’re one of the show’s biggest success stories, with more than $40M in sales since their episode aired. We’ll find out how they did it and what role the Shark Tank episode played in their growth in this two-part interview.

Stephan Aarstol founded Tower Paddle Boards ten years ago after seeing the extreme price mark-up most retailers added to their products. He’s since extended his direct-to-consumer model into the electric bike industry with Tower Electric Bikes, which won an award for best electric cruiser bike with its very first consumer design.

We’ll find out how Mark Cuban’s investment helped their growth and what impact the episode had on their brand recognition and sales. Stephan also shares some behind-the-scenes tips in this interview, like writing Shark Tank pitches and what he did to prepare for the show.
