I run a business, a once-thriving one but due to some wrong decisions and a patch of bad luck I found myself deep in debt. I’m talking six figures deep.
The banks were breathing down my neck, collectors making my life hell and worst of all I had a team of loyal staff who depended on me for their livelihoods. Every face I saw at the office was a reminder that I had to sort things out, and fast.
I’m not one for woo-woo nor do I buy into supernatural stuff like ghosts. But when your back’s against the wall and you’ve tried nearly every play in the book you start to get desperate. That’s when a buddy of mine, a fellow businessman and someone I know to be a straight shooter told me about Duchess Bune. Like me he wasn’t the sort to chase fairy tales either, so when he swore blind about Bune’s intervention in turning his own company around I listened.
I was very wary and had to keep asking him what was the catch because you see all these horror films and it never seems to end well.
Late one evening in the office after everyone had left, I decided to give it a go. I’d reached end-game and the company had maybe a week remaining of credit and then the shutters would come down. I carefully copied out Bune’s sigil on a whiteboard, lit up an old candle left behind from someones birthday and after saying her enn, I plainly laid out my situation.
I don’t know how to speak all fancy so I spoke to Bune as I would speak to a boss. “Bune, I need a hand. The business is tanking, I owe a lot of money and I’ve got staff to pay. I’m asking for a way out, a solution, a lifeline.”
After spending some time looking at Bune’s sigil and trying to sense if anything had changed I went back to work, figuring at worst I’d just spoken to a whiteboard and birthday candle, while at best – well who knew!?
Three days later, an opportunity I couldn’t have dreamed up landed on my lap. A former competitor, who’d recently expanded big-time overseas reached out to me. They wanted to outsource a chunk of their operations and thought my setup was just right. The contract they offered was lucrative, long-term and they would pay 25% up front!
This would not only help me clear my debt long term but also secure the company’s future in the short term.
Within months, the tide had turned. Debts were getting cleared and I could look my employees in the eye again knowing their salaries were safe.
Do I believe in miracles? Not sure. But I DO believe in results. And I got mine.
Bune delivered when I needed it most. No fluff, no drama, just straight-up results.
Bune you did good. I owe you more than you could ever know.
