When Christina Conrad's "Shark Tank" episode aired in 2015, the BoobyPack's sales skyrocketed. "We saw an insane spike throughout that first weekend," she said in an interview with Hubspot. "We sold $2,000 of product within the first two minutes of my pitch airing." Following this, Conrad explained how pleasing it was to receive the wealth of encouraging emails. She made plans to get the BoobyPack in front of as many different consumers as possible outside of the music lovers she was originally aiming towards, including travelers, parents, and athletes.
Sadly, it seems that Conrad was unable to fulfill these hopes, as she announced throughout the company's social media accounts that BoobyPack would close down in late 2016. They would hold a final sale on the e-commerce site, Zulily, from December 4 to 6 of that year, with the company officially closing its doors in early 2017. It is unknown as to why BoobyPack didn't succeed, although we can grasp that Barbara Corcoran stayed on in some capacity, as she is featured in some of their last social media posts. As of now, Conrad, who used to work as an editor at Time Inc., decided to once again pursue her passion for writing. She currently works as freelance writer, living with her husband and dog in Connecticut and even releasing a children's book. Additionally, she has a novel in the works. All of her projects can be found on her new website.
