Investors say my BP sounds "too good to be true" even though I dropped projected numbers to 30%, what do I do?


I need only 20k to start and can be profitable within a couple of months. With pre-placed orders it can be profitable within 1 month. And I am not able to borrow from friends or family. The only people I know with enough money are my grandparents and everyone in my family has "borrowed" money from them and I know of no one who has repaid them.
I have now had 5 potential investors tell me my BP sounds too good to be true. I have dropped sales estimates by 70% to only 10 units a month and when I placed limited coverage trial ads on places like Craigslist, I got way more than 10 leads. Also that was in only a few cities.
It also does not help that it is a low amount, and in the automotive sector. The last potential investor was actually an investment finder. His investors want investments that start at 5m.

What do I do ? I have even tried to offer 50% of the profits for the first two years as repayment, making the investor millions, instead of a few thousand.

If you're that confident of success, then take use a credit card or two. You'll be able to repay them long before the interest cost amounts to much.

Since your grandparents appear to be tolerent of being taken advantage of (and you haven't yet ??) hit them up for a cool half mill and give them the full guarantee, like "I'll pay you back in 2 months, with 50% of the profits, etc. etc."
