Plot Synopsis
BLUE COLLAR BACKERS is a one-hour series that follows four groups of investors who try to save small businesses who have been denied loans by the big banks. On average, more than 540,000 new businesses launch in the United States each month, but what separates a good idea from one that just reads well on paper? Enter these experts who are offering not only a cash investment, but sweat equity to burgeoning businesses. Each week, a panel of top-notch professionals from various fields and trades share their personal experience, get their hands dirty, and provide the necessary funds to help a few budding entrepreneurs make their big dreams a reality. They also reveal tips on how to be successful in their industries from lessons learned in the field. These one-of-a-kind endeavors are built from the ground up -- with the show's team of experts helping to navigate every step of the way to find that path to fortune. The backers are: Cameron Davies, a no-nonsense fabricator out of San Antonio, Texas who has forged a successful career making food trucks for customers around the country; Ron Douglas, a self-made millionaire of the mountains, who has an elusive set of criteria when it comes to making a move on a business; Brian Stark and Wes James, based out of Scottsdale, Arizona, where these partners found much success on their own in the area; and Cain and Cam Roberds, twin brothers who enjoy rolling up their sleeves and getting involved with their projects. BLUE COLLAR BACKERS was originally scheduled to premiere on May 18, 2016 at 10pm ET/PT, but the series was pulled from the schedule just days before its debut. Discovery Channel officially premiered the program on Friday, August 25, 2016 at 10pm.
