MILLION DOLLAR IDEAS AND
THE PEOPLE BEHIND THEM
Media Experience
A new multi-platform television series that answers the
#1question about the world’s most successful inventions.
Why Didn’t I Think of That?® is based on the timeless notion that we are all inventors and entrepreneurs at heart.
We’ve all got great ideas, but how do you turn great ideas into fortunes or use them to change the world?
Is it luck? Is it brains?
Or both?
Why Didn’t I Think of That?® is based on a successful web site (ThinkOfThat.net) and nationally syndicated radio feature that focuses on the ‘eureka’ moment of inspiration that can change the world we live in!
The concept is being re-launched as a nationally broadcast TV series, podcast, digital destination and educational curriculum distributed worldwide!
The Series
Did you ever wonder what the inspiration was behind chewing gum, NIKE or YouTube?
Behind every invention is a story!
These stories capture the moment of inspiration when a person stumbles onto an idea that can change the world and make them millions. Unbelievable stories waiting to be told from the eureka moment to making the dream a reality! Inspirational stories of everyday people who became successful entrepreneurs.
Cross Platform
Experience
The website offers a deeper richer experience about invention, innovation and what it takes to be an entrepreneur who “thinks outside of the box!”
Education
Why Didn’t I Think of That?® will also take the multiple platform concept to a new place – the classroom! In addition to the TV, internet, digital and podcast components, the producers are working with educators to develop an educational curriculum for grades 4 - 8 based on the Why Didn’t I Think of That?® franchise
Television Demo
Each half hour episode of Why Didn’t I Think of That?® will bring to life the evolution of some of the most successful inventions through first person narrative and re-creations. Each episode will feature 5 invention stories presented in a countdown or top-five format and connected by a common theme.
Hearing the story directly from the inventor will take precedence and their stories will be told in the actual location where the original eureka moment occurred. It’s not just the invention or the idea that inspires. It’s the birth of the idea that is truly compelling! For historical stories and inventions a re-creation of the idea’s development process and story will be included. Next we learn about the success of the product and its franchise today.
Podcast
The Off Ramp podcast is the perfect distraction from the high paced life so many of us lead. It's hosted by co-creators of Why Didn't I Think of That?®, Bob and Marcia Smith and features fascinating facts and tantalizing trivia! Slow down, steer clear of crazy and take a side road to sanity with Bob & Marcia Smith.
