Haliey Welch Loans $10k to Save Tenn. Hat Company Selling 'Hawk Tuah' Merch
What did Jason Poteete do before receiving the loan?
Before receiving the loan from Haliey Welch, Jason Poteete, the founder of Fathead Threads, faced financial difficulties due to the majority of the $190,000 in "Hawk Tuah" merchandise sales being locked up in a PayPal account. He was unable to access the funds, as PayPal suspected him of running a fraudulent business. Consequently, he couldn't fulfill outstanding orders and sought help from family members and banks. The situation caused him significant stress and anxiety.
