^redacted‌apparently achieved a $20M zero-equity purchase of a speciality packaging business (egg carton manufacture). She's since repeated the feat and now has an empire. Deal structure = 25% seller note, 75% bank. At time of acquisition her personal balance sheet consisted of a used Rav4 and she was a fresh out of HBS = wow! Super cool. What's in the water at HBS?!

Question: Who was this banker? Are there others like it? Apparently she went through 100 banks, most of whom she claims had no idea how their own products worked. Everyone claims these deals are impossible, evidently not.

^redacted‌ (^redacted‌), I would respectfully suggest that it's naive to expect Sarah Moore to disclose her special banking source. Reach out to her directly; she's on this platform and her contact info is also available elsewhere - but don't hold you breath waiting for a response. That financing relationship is proprietary and highly valuable to her, and she risks killing the goose that laid her golden egg if she publicizes it.

Do what she did. Call 10000+ lenders and find your answers. I am surprised by the post and some answers here. She is not going around on social media to promote her accomplishments, but here we are - people talking about her and doubting her achievements instead of cold calling and finding answers some of us are expecting her to come to social media and share the answers. These traits show clearly to investors who they should invest on.
