Anyone have any advice on how to convince an absentee owner to invest in his own business? Even just being at least present here. I've tried everything I can think of and I can't even get a text reply from the guy

The first step is to try and understand why the absentee owner is not investing in their own business. There could be a number of reasons such as a lack of interest, uncertainty about the future of the business, or a lack of funds. Once you have identified the reason, you can then start to come up with solutions.

Ultimately, it will be up to the owner whether or not they decide to invest in their own business. However, by providing information and solutions, you can help them make an informed decision. The sad part is that if the owner decides to sell, or the business goes bankrupt or something, you guys, the employees, will take the brunt of it.

If the owner is uncertain about the future of the business, you could provide statistics or projections that show how the business is doing and how it is likely to grow in the future. If the owner is interested in the business but does not have the funds, you could suggest ways for them to raise money such as through loans or crowdfunding.

And when we ask her about it, she gets mad.

I'm worried that if I speak up, she'll make my life even harder. I don't want to lose my job because of this—do you guys have any advice?
