Hi Luckiest.

Yes, it is a new business. We do have a Federal Tax ID. It is completely setup, but we have some misc. costs, and we are hoping to do some advertising with the money.

You can get in touch with me by either sending me an email at bryant@rowgcomputers.com, or call me at 979-541-6566.

If you would like to invest, you can send the check to

1600 Sam Houston Ave Apt 277
Huntsville, TX 77340

Thanks,
Bryant

Hi Bryant and welcome.

The truth is that finding an investor to invest $10k in your business is going to be nearly impossible. If you really want to get the business going, you should look to get a loan to fund it. The most common way that entreprenuers do that is with a home equity line of credit or credit cards. They aren't always ideal, but studies have show that its how many new businessed get started. If you don't have credit available to you, perhaps a family member or friend would be willing to loan it to you (I personally don't like the idea of mixing friends and money, but it happens).

I do like the idea of focusing on the customer service. How well will you be able to compete on price?

(PS - Luckiest was being sarcastic. He always asks where to send a check when someone asks for money without giving oodles of info)

Hi NoBullFunding.

Thank you for the advice. I just wanted to answer your question. I will be able to offer same price, if not, on some of the computers, cheaper.
