How to make a purchase without money or credit
Leonard, Russellville, Ark.
For four years I was production manager of a business which is now up for sale. I want to buy it. This business never showed a profit until I took over, then made money 2004-2008, while I worked there. I don't have the money/credit to buy it, and I have been seeking out investors who would be willing to help me based on my track record as manager. Would appreciate any advice or input.
