The Chirp Wheel is a simple back pain relief tool that hits all the right spots. It is designed to fit perfectly over the user’s shoulder blades and reach deep into the spine. Tate Stock was offered a deal with Lori Greiner on Shark Tank, but unfortunately it didn’t go through. In 2024, the Chirp Wheel is estimated to be worth $50 million!
Tate Stock was born into a farming family in Draper, Utah. After graduating from high school, he studied economics at Brigham Young University. As a young man, he was a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Stock was assigned to Suva, Fiji, for more than two years. Before becoming CEO, the Utah native sold insecticides door-to-door, which was his main source of income for three years.
Stock was visiting his aunt’s house and saw a yoga wheel. He searched online but couldn’t find one, so he decided to make one himself. He spent $400 on PVC pipes and yoga mats and built a prototype, which was originally called Plexus Yoga.
The company launched in 2015, and within two weeks, Tate had $12,000 in sales. A year later, he had a staggering $180,000 in sales. The early sales helped him redesign the product and add a patented spinal canal feature that helps to tone key muscles.
The founders launched a Kickstarter campaign, raising $1.5 million from nearly 18,000 backers. In 2018, the Chirp Wheel made $8 million, and by 2022, its total sales exceeded 1 million units.
In 2020, the business continues to thrive, with year-to-date sales of $12 million at the time of the pitch. He appeared in Season 12 and offered $900,000 for a 2% stake. $45 million is the highest valuation in the show’s history!
Tate’s pitch was brilliant, with his partner wearing a bubble wrap suit to demonstrate the product’s usefulness. The Sharks loved the product, and the founders predicted $40 million in sales and $12 million in profits in 2021. Daymond John, however, suspected Tate was just looking for fame.
A bidding war broke out between the three Sharks. Kevin and Robert made offers that included royalties. However, Lori Greiner won with an offer of 2.5% ($900,000) but required repayment within 18 months. Tate was hesitant about giving up 0.5% but ultimately accepted the deal.
Unfortunately, the deal with Lori doesn’t appear to have been completed after the show, as the company is not listed on her personal website. Most likely, Tate backed out of the deal because he felt the $36 million valuation was too low. The CEO said he drastically reduced the valuation to get Shark.
The founders haven’t released any recent sales figures since the episode aired, but Tate said in February 2021 that business was “booming.”
Chirp Well is now an FDA-registered medical device, which helps it stand out from the crowd. They’ve even set up a shipping company called StudShip to handle orders in the U.S. The products are available at GoChirp.com, Amazon, Target, Best Buy, Walmart, and Dick’s Sporting Goods.
On Amazon, the product has a 4.4-star rating from over 20,300 users. The company is valued at around $50 million and has helped over 500,000 customers with back pain relief!
