Bissell Corporate Office

bissell 3

Bissell was founded in Grand Rapids, Michigan, by Melville Bissell, who invented a carpet sweeping device for the crockery shop that he and his wife Anna owned. Bissell got a patent for his machine in 1876. By 1883, Bissell had a manufacturing plant and by 1890, the company was making and selling approximately 100 carpet sweepers each day, both in the US and internationally.

bisell 2 Melville passed away in 1889 and his wife Anna took over the company, actively working as CEO and chairwoman of the board until 1934. Anna was the first female CEO in the US.

Over the years the company has continued to expand and grow, as well as develop new technology.  In 1956 the company invented the first manual carpet and rug shampoo machine, removing the chore of washing these by hand.

In 1979, the company introduced the first deep cleaning carpet shampoo machine. bissell 4

In 2001, the SpotBot was introduced by the company, making it the first portable deep cleaner specially designed for pet messes.

In 2004 the company acquired a license for the  Woolite trademark for all carpet and upholstery cleaning formulas for $62 million.

The company’s main focus today is on pet clean-up machines, including vacuums, wet/dry floor mops, and specialized carpet cleaning, as well as hardwood floor cleaning machines. bissell 1

While other companies have seen their sales decline over the years, Bissell has seen steady revenue, with annual revenue in 2017 of $800 million.

In December 2020, Bissell offered $25 pet adoptions in hopes of emptying animal shelters by Christmas.  

In addition to vacuums and other cleaning devices, the company makes pet towels and bathmats. 

In 2009, the company surpassed Hoover to take the #1 position in floor care products in North America, with a 20% market share. Company headquarters remain in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Stitch Fix Corporate Office

sf 1

Stitch Fix, originally named Rack Habit,was founded in 2011 by current CEO Katrina Lake and Erin Morrison Flynn. Lake attended Stanford, where she became interested in statistics and how they were used to influence customers. While she was attending Harvard Business School, she started the idea of Stitch Fix and began working on it from her apartment. Her research told her that people didn’t always like shopping at stores but felt that they couldn’t afford a personal shopper or a styling assistant.

sf 1  Stitch Fix is an online clothing subscription service which offers personal assistants to help pick out clothing styles for clients. After filling out a questionnaire about styling preferences and body measurements, clients can choose to receive subscription boxes as often as they wish. Clients can keep what they want and return what they don’t want, with free shipping each way.  sf 2

The company began only selling women’s clothing but has since added men’s wear, maternity clothing, and petite sizes. The company also supports integration with Pinterest boards, allowing customers to add photos of fashion looks that they like.

Stitch Fix has been profitable since 2014. In July 2016, the company ended its fiscal year with recorded sales of $730 million. The company has also raised $42 million from outside investors.

In July of 2017, the company went public on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol: SFIX. sf 3

MusclePharm Corporate Office

mp 1

Two online friends, Cory Gregory and Brad Pyatt, were both interested in bodybuilding and often talked about how supplements can play a big part in that. In 2006, they began working on a formula which would contain all the ingredients that athletes and bodybuilders would want. MusclePharm was incorporated in 2006. The company went public on the OTCQB soon afterward, under the ticker symbol: MSLP.

mp 2

The company is an online retailer which offers nutritional supplements and athletic gear.  MusclePharm uses social media sites to promote their products, including a very active Twitter account, which has more than 200,000 followers.  Arnold Schwarzenegger is one of the biggest shareholders in the company and lends his image to one product line, simply named “Arnold”.   mp 6

The company has its own research and development team to create new products while sponsoring a host of athletes to promote current ones.

By the end of 2014, the company reported net revenue earnings of $67 million. mp 5

In September of 2015, MusclePharm was charged by the Securities and Exchange Commission with infractions related to a number of accounting and disclosure violations. The investigation found that the company failed to report, or grossly misrepresented, approximately $500,000 in benefits paid to three current or former executives and chairmen. The SEC also discovered that MusclePharm issued stock without a registration statement when it entered into numerous transactions with third parties that agreed in exchange for company shares to pay cash to MusclePharm vendors. MusclePharm owed vendors approximately $1.1 million in outstanding invoices and was short on funds to pay them. Founder and CEO Brad Pyatt stepped down and resigned as a result. mp 3

The company was also sued in 2016 by Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals, who stated that the company was inflating the actual level of protein found in their “Arnold” Iron Mass products.

MusclePharm has headquarters in Denver, Colorado. The company has a B+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and ratings of 9.1 out of a possible 10 on sites such as Bodybuilding.com.

ThumbTack Corporate Office

The service is free for clients and charges a small fee to professionals who bid on requests for service.

In 2014, Google Capital invested $100 million in the company.
