Despite the rather troubling events happening, business, apparently, marches on. In this case, mine. I've discovered that I'm it a bit of a bind; my success, while to be expected, has had three, well mostly two, rather unfortunate results.

Firstly, I have more than enough commissions to keep me busy for the next several months, and yet I'd like to take on more, expand my repertoire, and that necessitates hiring more help to assist in production which I don't currently have enough currency to hire.

Secondly, I need more space, even if I don't expand, my current workshop is getting too small for my purposes. Again, my lack of currency is an obstacle.

So despite my inclination to remain sole owner, I'm looking for investors who, for a respectable investment, will be given a percentage of ownership in my works.

If you happen to have any interest, please let me know, I have some ideas for my eventual expansion that I would be more than happy to share with you.

...and what services would you be offering?

[prefers-chess.livejournal.com]

That depends entirely on what tasks you have available to be performed.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Well, for working there's managing the storefront, sales, production - although I'd expect you to be an expert tailor.

[prefers-chess.livejournal.com]

I don't sew.

Who handles your finances?

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

At the moment, I do.

How old are you?

[prefers-chess.livejournal.com]

Thirteen.

And considering that I am attempting to negotiate in good faith by being forthright, kindly refrain from patronizing me.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

In my world, you're old enough to kill, I tend not to patronize. But I do wonder about your business experience.

[prefers-chess.livejournal.com]

Your world has a minimum age required to commit murder?

You are welcome to refuse my offer if you find it unsatisfactory.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Something like that. And I wasn't refusing, I was asking for your experience.

[prefers-chess.livejournal.com]

How civil. I currently possess no work experience in the field, but I have ample amounts of free time and a skill set conducive to business management and accounting.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

I can't offer you a portion of the business itself, but if you're of mind, I could employ you on a part-time basis.

[prefers-chess.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately, my current interests lie primarily in being a shareholder, not in seeking employment. How long will your offer for investors be open?

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

As long as it takes.

[prefers-chess.livejournal.com]

How vague.

In the attempt that I am able to secure a loan, I will re-open negotiations.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

I'll look forward to it.
