Artist Turns Hometown Stigma Upside Down

BAKERSFIELD, Calif. - April 13, 2015 - PRLog -- Bakersfield, CA – You might know it by name or the dubious lists the town has made in the past. What happens when an artist returns to her hometown and struggles with the lack of job listings appropriate for her skill set, especially in light of single motherhood and caring for an aging parent? Bakersfield, California is the heart of the central valley. Why not try to make it cool?

IMPROVISE! Establish a small business and pay no attention to the glut of pre-approved credit card offers in the mail. Crowd funding was suggested on a whim. With the help of some childhood friends, a campaign was launched that both honors and pokes fun at small town life. Authenticity trumps all.

Four and half minutes of video. It’s a simple story and relevant to anyone in small business or small towns. No one needs to buy a tiered package for that. It's the same as those pre-approved credit card offers.
