Founded in 2001 by Jason Flores at 19, Rime's first issue was provided by hand by Mr. Flores until getting two Tower Records accounts. After approximately a couple weeks, Mr. Flores received a trip from the purchaser at Tower Headquarters in Sacramento. Because the magazines both in stores had soldout, Tower wanted the publication in most their stores, nationally.
Once national distribution was attained in short order in early 2002, Rime was fortunate enough to extend its distribution with Ingram Periodicals, allowing Rime's entrance into Borders, Barnes & Noble, B. Dalton yet others nationally.
The steps to growth continued much more 2003, Jason Flores signed a binding agreement with Curtis Circulation, the nations largest magazine distributor (Oprah, Rolling Stone, Maxim, Sports Illustrated).
