Television has long given audiences a front-row seat to business pitches, investment deals, and entrepreneurial dreams. But what if you could do more than just watch? What if you could shop, vote, and even invest in real companies in real time, directly from your living room?
Welcome to America’s Real Deal, a groundbreaking, nationally syndicated business reality competition that flips the script on traditional TV. Premiering on Roku and launching on Amazon October 1, this first-of-its-kind show transforms passive viewing into dynamic, interactive deal-making — giving everyday Americans the power to invest in the next big brand.
The Concept: Entertainment Meets Investment
Each week, entrepreneurs step onto the stage to pitch their businesses to celebrity ICONS and members of Millionaires’ Row — a panel of seasoned investors who pledge real money, with over $250,000 invested per episode, plus a $100,000 Season Champion prize.
But here’s the twist: viewers aren’t just spectators. Using on-screen QR codes, audiences can instantly:
Invest directly in pre-vetted companies.
Shop products in real time to support their favorite founders.
Vote via social shares to help decide who becomes the Season Champion.
This unique format bridges entertainment and equity crowdfunding, leveling the playing field so that anyone — not just the wealthy elite — can participate in early-stage investing.
ICONS, Mentors, and Millionaires’ Row
Unlike other shows where investors negotiate entrepreneurs down, America’s Real Deal focuses on empowerment. The ICONS and Millionaires’ Row investors are either “in or out” — no predatory equity deals, just mentorship, capital, and national exposure.
I had the chance to sit down with Byron Scott, NBA Champion and former Lakers Head Coach, and CeCe Scott, co-host, entrepreneur, and lifestyle influencer, to learn more about their roles on the show.

They shared powerful insights about what they look for in pitches, why this show is different from other business competitions, and how they’re helping entrepreneurs succeed on a global stage.
The Viewer Experience: Your Vote, Your Investment, Your Impact
America’s Real Deal is more than a show — it’s an experience.
Scan the QR code during the broadcast to invest directly.
Shop products live and support the entrepreneurs you believe in.
Vote through social sharing to push your favorite founders closer to victory.
It’s Wall Street meets Main Street, with no middlemen. Viewers invest right alongside the show’s ICONS and Millionaires’ Row.
The Opportunity for Entrepreneurs
Businesses featured on the show are pre-vetted by the Independent Stock Market (ISM), ensuring compliance and growth potential. For founders, the benefits are unmatched:
Raise up to $5 million in capital.
Gain nationwide marketing exposure.
Receive mentorship from celebrity ICONS.
Grow without sacrificing ownership through predatory equity deals.
Applications for Season Two are now open at AmericasRealDeal.com.
Hosted by Jordin Sparks
Adding star power to the stage, the show is hosted by Grammy-nominated singer, actress, and entrepreneur Jordin Sparks, who brings both charisma and business insight to the competition.
Why It Matters
America’s Real Deal isn’t just another reality show — it’s a movement. By combining entertainment, entrepreneurship, and investing, the series:
Empowers everyday Americans to build wealth through ownership.
Provides entrepreneurs with capital, customers, and community all in one.
Creates a new path for small and midsize businesses to scale and thrive.
At its heart, the show proves that you are the hero of the story. Every vote, every investment, every product purchased helps shape the future of entrepreneurship in America.
