Company Description

Pit Liquor, a brand by Distilled Body, is a deodorant made from whiskey and vodka. Most “natural” deodorant companies aren’t actually natural. These stinkin’ liars covertly add in chemicals, shame you with detoxing myths, and give you a load of BS BO excuses. We decided to do things differently, refreshing the way natural deodorant should be with revolutionary, stink-fighting formulas. In 5 years we plan to have sold the company. Since before our formation, we wanted to hit the exact trajectory we've leveled these past three years, and we look forward to crushing our goals going forward. We plan to exit for $100M in 3 years. We are beginning to work with TrueSpace and investment banking teams to get those relationships set up correctly early and to stay on our game for scaling.

Valuation

Security Description

A SAFE is an agreement between you—the investor—and the company in which the company promises to give you a future equity stake based on the amount you invested. It also involves some kind of a triggering event that must take place in order for you to get your future equity stake. Be careful as you may only get equity if a particular event is triggered.
