Lori Greiner's determination fueled her to meet the demands of her product. The meeting with JCPenney took place in August and she only had a few months left to design, manufacture, and package the earring organizer. Thankfully she was able to finish everything in four months and was ready by the time the holiday season came around. While everyone was having a great time enjoying the holidays, she was hustling and demonstrating her product at JCPenney. The response to her product was overwhelmingly positive — so positive that JCPenney started selling the product across the country the following year.
Besides her business sensibilities, her success is also made possible because of her supportive husband, Dan Greiner. Dan took out a loan worth $120,000 against their house to fund the production of Lori's invention. There's no denying that she's become one of the most prolific names in the business world, gaining respect among inventors participating in the show. Lori joined the show in 2012. She has been dubbed "The Warm-Blooded Shark" and is known for her ability to sniff out great products from the get-go.
The proof of her natural capabilities is obvious through two of the biggest products to ever come out of the show — Scrub Daddy and Squatty Potty — two of her investments.Although she's not the richest shark from "Shark Tank," she has indeed come a long way — having made and marketed more than 1,000 products.
