Description:
Backyard Barbeque of Durham (URL removed)de name Backyard BBQ Pit was established in April 2007. The establishment of this business derived from my parents being sick and I did not want to see them in a nursing home They were here to protect me and I had to do the same. My Dad died from cancer in 2005 as i stayed out of work for a year in a half to take care of him. My mom died from dementia in 2011 as she was the reason for the start of the restaurant . My business was very profitable even though it was very hard but it was the decisions my husband and I had made with investing in other businesses that has depleted my cash flow and now I am at a decline. I am now in a lot of debt and I cant loose my business that the community loves over my mistakes. I now have great ideas that would take this business in another arena but I no longer have the money to do so. I really need help. We made Man Vs Food TV Show and my husband was on the Bobby Flay show and have been featured in many books and news papers. There is a great opportunity in franchising as many have inquired. I really need your help.. I have a great ideas for the business but i need help to put it together
