Even during a pandemic year, a local entrepreneur on ‘Shark Tank’ is living out the opportunity of a lifetime. The summary of the episode sketches out how CEO Bing Howenstein from Boulder, Colorado enlisted the help of a superstar to show off the merits of his innovative work-from-home necessity.

Isn't it incredible? 

What is ALL33 BackStrong Chair?

Dubbed “a Back Healing Station”, the chair comes with a 60 Day Guarantee that ensures 100% money back. The only chair in the world that allows natural movement of the pelvis and back — stimulating circulation, improving flexibility, and encouraging an increase of oxygenation and respiration — it has been designed by Dr Dennis Colonello, a world-renowned chiropractor and the current team chiropractor for the Los Angeles Clippers. 

Collonello joined forces with industrial designer Jim Grove to develop the first ergonomic office chair to utilize state-of-the-art Sit-In-Motion technology. After the wondrous ‘Shark Tank’ pitch was taped in the Fall of 2020, the company has recorded skyrocketing sales in recent months and is all set to launch several new products in 2021.

Who is CEO William ‘Bing’ Howenstein?

Starting off by making short movies in Los Angeles, Howenstein stepped into the tinsel town but soon diverged to other pursuits. Raised in Detroit, he earned a bachelor’s degree in History and Communication from Lehigh University and is still a Lions fan.

Making a shift from movie producer to entrepreneur, he brought a product to the market called Backjoy. From the garage to eight teams across the globe, he has grown multifold. Bing's trajectory hasn't been all smooth sailing as he was in deep trouble after his partner got into a serious car accident that left him running the business all by himself. Did you know his company was listed as the 51st fastest-growing company on Inc 500?

Backjoy’s mission is to fix the way the world sits, stands, sleeps and moves. Talking about the upcoming episode, he said, “It's definitely an exciting opportunity... We're looking forward to introducing the Shark's to a game-changing product that is at the center of how people are currently working and living during this crazy year.”
