How do I find investors for my energy drink? It has sold 54,000 cases in its first year but I need growth $?

The brand is known around the world and beloved. The drink (regular and sugar-free varieties) tastes great and beats out Red Bull 100% of the time in blind taste tests. At $1.99 USD retail, it's a great value, too. But with the financial markets roiling and investors worried on so many levels, it's hard to capture investor attention. The falling dollar provides us an opportunity to attract overseas investors but how does one go about that without going broke hiring consultants and advisors? It's a quandry. Alas, product quality and brand noteriety should win the day. But making prospective investors aware of the upsides off the modest stake we week is the rub. Not into franchising (legal hurdles abound). Just need an angel, VC, or savvy stakeholder that can take us to our exit strategy and prosper by doing so.

Issue stock. People love IPO's. Hansens stock ran like mad for a while. Yours could be the same.
