How Do I Seek Financial Help From People Without Ruining Relationship With Them by iDRAW(m): 8:00am On Dec 03, 2017
Hi people,
My business is in a little mess.

Few weeks ago my brother got married somewhere in the Western part of the country. I came back with high spirit of working smarter in order to recover from the little "change" I spent for the wedding but things hasn't been beautiful, I must confess.

Now, I am contemplating on looking outside for assistance but I am the shy type who would rather go hungry than beg for bread. Things has to change, I can't apply my personal principles on this business of mine; business must survive no matter what it takes.

My question now is, how do I source for financial aid from people without losing my respect/ruining my relationship with them.

My extended family members can honestly spend hundreds of thousands for a wedding or funeral but NOT on projects like this, so don't bother pointing me to that direction. Yes I've tried asking one of them and the automatic response was.... Well your guess is same as mine.

Please let me know if you have a template of how to go about this "financial asylum" without me brown-nosing anyone.

Thanks as you respond to this post.

It's a delicate one, I've been in your shoe before and it wasn't a funny tale to tell. In this part of the world, we only take care of the 'dying' and not people who are supposed healthy, if you grasp my analogy.

There's no crime in trying though, it's either yes or no barring your prestige or respect.

Thank you, bro. I will keep up the good fight. My business must survive; I must succeed.
