The Pursuit : In The Trenches Reality Competition Show

FOLLOW THE CONTESTANTS

Entertaining. Interesting. Gritty. Inspiring. Educational. Real. This show puts a unique spin on the typical entrepreneurship show or podcast. Each episode gives viewers a peek into a unique world; the many facets of the talented contestant’s business, challenges and goals. We’ll find out: how did they get where they are today? What have they had to overcome? What are their goals? Why? How will they achieve those goals?  We’ll follow their journey throughout the series and see if they reach their big goal or not, how and what we can all learn from their journey.  One contestant who goes above and beyond towards their goal will receive a cash prize at the end of the season.
