Transcript

This is a day in the life of a Shark Tank judge. The day starts at 7:30 a.m. when the driver comes and picks you up. Then you're straight into getting make up. After a quick briefing from the producers about the day before, you go into pitch one. The pitches last for about 45 minutes, but sometimes can be 20 minutes if they're not good. Then we go into the green room and chat about the previous investment. This repeats three times for a total of three pitches, then we have lunch. After lunch, we generally have two or three more pitches straight after. The Australian Shark Tank is smaller than the US Shark Tank and they can do up to 10 pitches in one day. At about 6 or 7 p.m. the driver comes and picks us up. Then sometimes we have a team dinner.
