Hello all,
My girlfriend's parents own a kites and toys business that's local in the Midwest. They are both in their 60's, and hurting very much financially, hence the reason for this post. Not expecting a miracle, just seeing if I can gather any ideas that could be relayed to them to help them out.
They tried to build a website, but I feel that they just got scammed by someone for thousands of dollars really. That or her father is just taking way too long to get it done. I'm not sure that they try to sell outside of their local area. Of course, this is a passion-based business, and they have been running for years, so not a complete failure.
But I feel sorry for them, and want to see if there's any avenues they haven't considered that would give them a big boost.
