I originalky wrote two paragraph which I now feel like most of my other posts here have not really remained very topical, but I've left them just in case since they do have to do with the current climate and funding in spite of circumstances that should or do approve it.
but yes, I'm trying to find some sort of non traditional funding for a warehouse of hopefully 10-20k square feet. It is frustrating knowing I could easily pay maybe 4-5k a month if I actually could sell my products snd begin production on even more profitable items that my current space has rendered any industrial machines only suited for storage by. I try to speak to brokers and find advice from people about unions, but I guess it just sounds strange. I was making a few thousand on grill cloth sales alone but ran out of what I have on hand months ago and have been unable to get to my warehouse in mississippi and have nowhere to store the amounts I need for it to be worth it. So yes, catch 22s everywhere, and because sales have double for myself during covid but also consequently have made me start making less because I do not have enough to expand but have ran out of items on hand but not out of the inventory... maybe I just need to find a way to streamline and focus so I can make more realistic assessments of my current situation instead of hoping tactile assetts that are certain and fast movers mean anything to institutions that liquidate tactile assets in seizures for fractions of cents on the dollar to half ass recoup on things they already wrote off.
Sounds like fools being made to once again bend to their algorithmic shortcomings oftentimes like Amazon does. The stupidest thing about this year and last has been the absolutely inane projections and asinine criteria by which not parameters are established and hard data is looked at, never by which someone like myself who has millions of dollars in tactile assetts (most of which do not lose value but gain it and raw materials that are valuable in spite of resell like kovar, molybdenum and copper 110, as well as ss302/4 and 316...) but because of my limits and three year history, all of my inventory is cramped and stacked in an inaccessible manner making logistics and taking inventory impossible and it has only gotten worse since I operate several states over and cannot find a suitable space for lease... the amount I pay in storage fees and warehousing for peppered units and other costs I've incurred from thus having nowhere to store a forklift or proper trailer/s has lost me at least several hundred thousand dollars in what ends up being considered abandoned or forfeit since I have to play Tetris and unload with my physical strength a very limited 8ft truck bed... which really defeats the 90000 I spent on a heavy duty truck. My biggest issue with my business and funding is the inability to translate profit potential to one space that I won't immediately outgrow with the removal of the cap the current situation is causing.
My girlfriend is essentially used and absurd by rvcv to train and fix and direct all of their photo editing requirements, especially ones that would really improve the bottom line by making things that bad models (tattoos, blemishes, and other reasons to hire anyone else), lighting issues, set screw ups, format/delete problems when uploading, the two second memory and recap of things already thoroughly covered in email, styling (removing wrinkles from every single photo and making it look natural), and of course being told to remove things or fix things that were not a product of editing, like a dog looking completely unrealistic when it is actually in the scene and real. The best part is being paid less than the temps you're training! The point is, these companies are operating on ridiculous levels of credit and ultimately because the shopping has all moved online, she has been doing three times her normal amount of work every weekday and they haven't done a review for two years and she is ignored when asking for any sort of monetary compensation for duties her boss seems to feel she should be inspired to do on her own, and she isn't any kind of project manager or web designer, but because their sales have increased their online store has become their main focus.
