The Ad That Craigslist Removed: Explained

Hi, my name is Jenny from Appalachia. I am a small business owner with a healing center located on Route 60 in Huntington, WV. This is my first month in business with a scheduled grand opening for this week.

My business model has the potential to generate $12,000 a month or more in profit. I am a licensed managing Cosmetologist and licensed business owner.

I am deaf and I am a woman. The services I provide are glow-in-the-dark one-hour almost heaven foot massages and reflexology energy cleanse sessions.

I also offer haircuts for adults and kids. I need funds to pay my business rent each month and my utilities - which include water, electric, gas, and business internet - just until I get on my business feet and begin generating monthly profits.

That won't take long, I'm sure, because I'm an expert at what I do. I need to find that one person (with funds to contribute) who believes in me and believes that investing in me is the right thing to do because they recognize my talent and skill and abilities.

That one person who needs a creative project to invest in and a person to believe in and help via kindness and generosity.

Not only that, you will receive complimentary almost heaven foot massages at the healing center on Route 60 any day and time that is convenient for you. You will be my priority, first place client because you believed in me from the beginning.

Are you that person? Are you interested in becoming my business partner, and not only receiving a percentage of my monthly profits as a return on your monthly investment, but also receiving almost heaven foot massages and/or haircuts at your convenience. I know, right! Let's do this! I am a sure thing, and my business model is guaranteed to succeed.

Why? Because it's very unique and it's needed in the community. I need the right person to be a part of it, indeed. The right person who understands a strong woman has to be tough in this world. She needs to get stuff done, and she needs to be no nonsense in her pursuit of greatness. A person who understands that everyone needs a little help from a friend from time to time because that's what community is all about.

A person who needs a place to go for a one hour foot massage and sixty minutes of pure bliss whenever feel in the mood to relax in the OOAK Glow Room at the Healing Center. Someone who sees my potential and is willing to see me as an opportunity and not a failure.

I don't fail. I adjust my crown and go at it again until I succeed. I'm a go-getter by nature and I won't let anything stop me from achieving my life goals and dreams.

I've been through a bad economic and financial situation concerning a separation and divorce while having a nine year old boy to raise into a mature, kind, honest, and responsible man. I've had a lot on my place and my finances and credit suffered greatly.

But this is me trying to restart my life and do something good that will not only help me make an honest living, but will also help others as I do.

It's a win/win because I know there are a lot of beautiful soles who will enjoy a glow-in-the-dark, one hour foot massage on a weekly basis. We're talking repeat clients for years to come. Please be the one who believes in me and helps me get my foot in the proverbial door. Help me Slay a Happy Grand Opening in November...for my birthday!

I need an investor willing to cover my business rent and utility costs each month for the next few months until I get on my feet and start generating recurring profits. My rent in $1,000 per month and my utilities including business internet could run anywhere between $200-$500.

I'm not certain of the utility costs yet because I've not been there a full month to receive all of my first month's bills. I'm roughly estimating the utility costs at this point. But I would say, basically, I need a $1,500 monthly investment right now...for the next few months.

I don't have a place to call home right now and was staying in a cabin tent before renting this commercial space. I have a vehicle and a business now and still have my tent, but I need to make this business a success so I can purchase a real home for my son and I, and give him a safe and warm and comfortable place to grow up and have a happy childhood with good memories. I do all this for him, and that's why I say I am guaranteed to succeed.

Because failure is NOT an option. Not when you're a hardworking, hustling mom looking out for her son's best interest. Please help me make a difference not only for my son, but for the local community and my fellow humans in general.

Thank you from the bottom of my healing heart. Love, Slay - The Happy Feet Gallery and Slay's Almost Heaven Healing Center on Route 60 in Huntington, WV.
