People always ask us "What happened to Budsies after Shark Tank?" Most companies that don't take an offer from the Sharks on ABC's Shark Tank don't end up making it very far. But what about Budsies? Watch as Founder Alex Furmansky reflects on the experience he had with Mark Cuban, Lori Greiner, Kevin O'Leary, and the rest of the cast! From 2,000 to 200,000 custom stuffed animals and custom plush dolls, this is the evolution of Budsies! And don't forget to look for the Budsies Shark Tank rerun that airs every now and again. You can watch Budsies and Petsies on Shark Tank Season 06, Episode #629.

It's been years since we at Budsies appeared on Shark Tank, and we've been growing so much ever since then!
We started off with our original Budsies product, which is where parents will send us their kids' drawings and we bring them to life as real stuffed animals.
Since then, we've also expanded into Selfies, which is where people send us pictures of their loved ones, their children, and people who serve in the military, and we turn them into custom handmade plush dolls. Now these even speak, as well!
From there we got into Specialty Commissions, which is where illustrators, artists, uh- people who are into OCs, manga, anime, send us these advanced illustrations and we bring them to life as real, super cool stuffed animals. And all of these are found at www.Budsies.com.
We've also launched a new brand called Petsies at www.MyPetsies.com. This is where people send us a photo of their pet, and we create a handmade stuffed animal that looks just like the pet. We even now use airbrushing to ensure we capture every detail of their pet.
We also launched this year our Stuffed Animal Pros brand, which is where brands, book authors around the world, will send us their characters and we make anywhere from hundreds to thousands of them. We've worked with brands like Facebook, Google & Harvard, and so so many more.
My experience on Shark Tank was amazing. I am so grateful to have been on there. We couldn't make it work with the Sharks, but since then...we closed an investment round with a venture capital firm out of California.
That firm has been super supportive and helped us improve our offices from an office of just a single room, to this amazing, 3,500 square foot facility that has offices and a warehouse in the back.
To date, we've made nearly 90 thousand stuffed animals and counting. I'm pretty sure at this point we are the Number One supplier of custom plush in the world. Our team has grown from a team of 2 to a team of over 15 people. And with all that, with all that growth we've still been able to keep our pricing lower than what the Sharks thought we should charge. It's been amazing.
At the end of the day... there's product, there's process...but there's also the people. And I love the people in this company. It's why I love coming to work every single day. And it makes me so proud of where we've come.
It's been an incredible journey here at Budsies. I'm so, so proud of what we've built... So, thank you!
