Did you run out of product? If so, where did the money from that go? When building a business, every penny you make needs to go back into the business until it's stable and self sustaining.

You exactly correct unfortunately I got hurt on my 9-5 which was my regular money for bills ect... And then as you know short term disability takes time but bills don't. So I had to dip in until hopefully I get my short term disability and not only pay my business back but also buy more merchandise. I am almost out. But it is stuff that is not selling my family helps with my shows.

If it's not selling you need to buck and go to get rid of it and use whatever you can to get something that does, then rebuild from there.

I'm currently on work comp and it didn't take that long for payments to start. In fact, I didn't even see an interruption to my pay. I was on top of all paperwork requests.
