Deal Fell Through

  • Robert and the Tactibite guys never closed their deal, but they didn't have to. The company went on to do $2 million in sales in the year following their original appearance.
  • During a July 2024 check-in, their website stated that when placing an order, 'All orders are now handled by our partner Clever Training.' The link led to a page that read, 'The page can't be found.'
  • Jack's LinkedIn page indicated the company shut down sometime in 2023.
