The younger Liemandt know that software companies were already helping bi business save millions by streamlining back-office work: building, shipping, receiving.

So he turned to the great investment bank of his generation: plastic. Liemandt used 35 credit cards to finance the business and living expenses for him and his partners. Two years later he was half a million dollars in debt.
