You know those guys who break the rules, dis the status quo, and form their own path to success? Those funky businesses and wicked cool entrepreneurs we wish we could be like? Well, good news—our new webshow, imagi-NATION: A Disruptive Innovators Road Tour, is going to share their inspiring stories and encourage you to follow your own dreams along the way.

Your imagi-NATION host Tamara Kleinberg, will travel the country in search of innovative businesses and sideways thinkers, bringing their ideas to life through interviews, sketches, and profiles.

We are goofy, creative, and love a good outtake. So buckle up and join us on a road trip across the imagi-NATION!

Take a look at our first two episodes:

"Shhh is a four-letter word"

"Get off your trash and do something"

WHY SHOULD YOU COME ALONG?

Who doesn’t love a good road trip?!  Especially when you meet awesome people along the way who are thriving doing what they love.

People say that innovation is dead in this country, and to those people we say BS. And we are going to prove it to you!

There is no better time than now. People want to be inspired, people need to be inspired, and this show is going to give you a glimpse behind the scenes of people walking the walk. We are going to tell you their stories and bring to life their successes and bumps along the way. The path to disruption may be hard, but if you ask the creative renegades out there, they will all tell you it is worth it.

So don’t be scared. Take a leap. And come explore imagi-NATION with us!

WHERE DID THE IDEA COME FROM?

Not too long ago, I was sitting on the couch doing some much needed channel surfing. I had heard about this great new show on one of the popular news channels that was all about interviewing our nation's top innovation experts. Needless to say I was excited. This was right up my alley. So I cuddled up with my Snuggie, popped up some popcorn, and was ready to go.

After about seven minutes of watching a boring couch Q&A with a person I had seen interviewed dozens of times before, I fell into a deep (much more exciting  than the show) sleep. When I woke up I had a breakthrough, an ah-ha moment: innovation doesn't happen on the couch! No, innovation is out there living and breathing in librarians, artists, lunch ladies, accountants, retailers. I wanted to hear these people's stories. I wanted to go to their towns and not only see what they were doing, but do what they were doing and share it with others who wanted to get inspired and motivated.

And there, waking from my slumber, imagi-NATION came to be.

WHERE IS THE CASH MONEY GOING?

$     Travel expenses so we can go across the country and film 6 more full episodes

By contributing to our Kickstarter campaign you would not only be making all of our dreams come true, but the show is so good, it’s going to inspire you to make all of your dreams come true too!

For passing this on to your friends and family who might dig it, you will receive the best karma ever. Thank you!
