DATE:
10 December, 2004
Raleigh,
NC - 9 December 2004 - The new television reality
show, Entrepreneur$, has spread its wings, and is
reaching out to markets beyond the USA already. Plans
are already afoot to release the show on Australian
television, and a location on Airlie Beach in the
Whitsunday region of Queensland has been selected
as a future location for filming episodes of the show.
The
key person for the Australian connection is Greg Tingle.
Self-styled as the "Media Man Australia,"
Greg is a public and media relations consultant, celebrity
property promoter, publicist, TV presenter, journalist,
radio broadcaster, Internet author, and an all round
media entrepreneur, based in the region. "I see
a wealth of opportunities in Whitsunday," he
says, "and I'm ready to ride the boom times."
Greg
will see Entrepreneur$ is picked up by a major Australian
television network. He feels Entrepreneur$ perfectly
blending in with his client base and associates, and
the early media and sponsorship interest has been
phenomenal.
"This
is an immense opportunity for us," said Bob Winstead,
executive producer of Entrepreneur$. "We will
expand the horizons for the participants in the show
to a truly international level, and get to work with
one of the top medial people in the world today."
The
Australian connection could see some episodes of the
show filmed on location in that part of the world.
There is a great deal of interest in doing that.
"The
international connection to Australia is extremely
valuable to us," said Omar McCallop, executive
producer of Entrepreneur$. "It will allow us
to show the reach of the true entrepreneur is not
just in their local area, but can extend to markets
far and wide."
Entrepreneur$
will air locally in the Raleigh market on FOX 50 television
in February 2005, and will proceed to national, and
now international, markets as well soon after that.
Contestants from all walks of life will start a business
from SCRATCH. The tasks will test their intelligence,
desire, chutzpah, drive, street smarts, and show if
they have what it takes to be an Entrepreneur.
