  Jim C. asked:

  Can anyone tell me where to start. Im looking for small business grants or investors to come on board. I have a dream to open up a small restaurant in sanford. I have all the knowledge about the restaurant business (16 years running kitchens, crunching numbers, etc.) Im just missing the financial backing to turn this dream into a reality. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
