Dream Big America Partners with My Cool Inventions

KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 2, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- On its one-year anniversary, and after featuring over 100 startups, Dream Big America (www.DreamBigAmerica.us), broadcast on Doug Stephan's Good Day Show (www.DougStephan.com) announced today a new strategic alliance with My Cool Inventions Radio (www.MyCoolInventionsRadio.com). This new partnership will double the reach of Dream Big America's weekly listening audience (now also broadcast on My Cool Invention's America's Talk Radio Network). It will expand the time slot, enhance the format of the show, and also provide unique opportunities for inventor-entrepreneurs.

"My Cool Inventions is a high-octane show, showcasing the amazing knowledge base of its two hosts, Akos Jankura and John Cremeans," explained Doug Stephan, the host of Dream Big America. "This new partnership is a perfect alliance, and I'm excited to co-host Dream Big America with these two dynamos."   

Beginning this week, Dream Big America will switch air times from Tuesday mornings to Friday mornings, and will be broadcast on both Doug Stephan's Good Day Show and My Cool Inventions' radio networks. From 9:00am to 10:00am ET each Friday, three entrepreneurs will pitch their startup to a live, national listening audience and then discuss their business plan with the show's hosts. One of the three Dream Big America contestants will be the winner from the weekly My Cool Inventions contest which airs Monday through Thursday at the same time and on the same networks.

"Bringing the great inventors of My Cool Inventions to Dream Big America is really exciting," said Akos Jankura, co-host of My Cool Inventions. "Doug Stephan is a legend in the industry and working with him to bring America the best-of-the-best ideas our nation has to offer is going to be amazing!"

Beginning at 9:00am ET each Friday morning, Dream Big America listeners and startup supporters will have an opportunity to vote for their favorite startup contestant. The voting is now expanded to a week-long period until 5:00pm ET the following Thursday. The weekly winner will be announced during the following Friday's show, one week after the startups initially present.
