Good read.
Honestly, it's a lot to tell.
I started the process of putting together a prospectus and a proforma and attracting investors in March 2014. I had a very solid investment group put together by June 2014, although over the course of the following year there were a decent amount of changes. Even though I had a lot of it put together in June 2014, nothing was set in stone... No deal was in place, so it could have fallen apart at any time, and it almost did too many times to count. The whole process definitely had an abundant amount of challenges. That's a very long story in itself, among a lot of stories.
Not to sound too cliche, but there were a million and a half things that could have ended this all for me, but I just stayed focused, never took no for an answer and said to myself if I fail I am going to go down swinging like I have nothing to lose. Just tackled one issue at a time. I actually paid attorneys a decent amount of money just for them to tell me I was out of my mind, but that was what I was expecting to hear... I just needed information that I was on the right path, which I got to some degree.
Starting in March of 2014 I was able to get permission from my employer to pursue this venture while still holding down my position within the company. I basically worked very little behind the bar for more than a year while still employed, which wasn't easy to manage. The GM of the company I was with eventually started giving me a very hard time about it, so I had to do a lot of juggling. In the end after 21 years of being a model employee they basically forced me out, but it worked out very well as I was able to hold that off until the very last minute when I finally had a signed deal with the start up. That was this past June.
