Everything seems to be coming up Shark Tank today.
Despite some less-than-stellar news on Zulily’s earnings this week, as we reported, the Seattle online shop posted a Q&A with Shark Mark Cuban yesterday to promote several of his vendors on the site just in time for Mother’s Day.
See Zulily’s announcement on Twitter:

According to Zulily VP of Home, Hardlines & Licensing Kerry Gibson-Morris, this is the second time Zulily has run Cuban’s Shark Tank vendors on the site. From now until Saturday, you can purchase goods from 13 vendors, seven of which are new to Zulily.
Cuban vendors include: KaZAM, Lollaland, Monkey Mat, Simple Sugars, HotTot and Nuts n More, with new additions Roominate, Red Dress, Game Day Couture, iLumi, qFlex, Breathometer and Luminaid.
“As a discovery-based online retailer, our goal at Zulily is to help our vendors, many of which are aspiring entrepreneurs, scale their businesses while providing unique and special products to our customer,” Gibson-Morris told us via email. “These were all companies hand selected by Mark Cuban from Shark Tank, because of their innovative products and ability to build a company around these ideas, entrepreneurial spirit and their ability to reach a wide demographic often centering around Mom.”
Now you can tell Mom that her gift came from a Shark Tank. Now that’s something you don’t get to say every day.
