11th Design [voice]

[threadthefire]

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.

I had financed a designer once before. She left the City. It's something I'd be open to doing again.

Of course you're not as pretty as she was but that's forgivable.

Well, then, how much are you looking to invest. I'm Cinna, by the way, I don't think we've been introduced.

[idmakeitaweek.livejournal.com]

A few hundred indigo perhaps. Of course I'd want to know exactly what percentage of the profits I'd get in return for my investment.

Tony Stark. A pleasure to meet you.

[Pause. You, sir, are Cinna's new best friend.]

For your part, should you invest that much, I'd be willing to offer, say... fifteen percent of the company?

[What's the point of money if you don't buy things--like designers]

I think that sounds fair. Have you squared away space already?

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

I have a few places in consideration. There's a disused hair salon I'd like to incorporate, and a nice storefront next door.

[idmakeitaweek.livejournal.com]

That sounds like an ideal space. If you need fabrication room, City Solutions has available labs

I think I may have found a good warehouse space. It will mostly be hiring talented people to assist me that will be the challenge. I have some very exacting standards.

[idmakeitaweek.livejournal.com]

Good. I'd rather put my money on exacting standards. In that case I'll transfer the money to you. I trust you'll keep me updated and good luck finding some talent.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Certainly.
