The Profit - Susana Monaco Update

Tonight on The Profit Marcus Lemonis is in New York, New York with hopes of making a deal with Susana Monaco.  Susana Monaco is a clothing company that is having issues due to a toxic relationship between the owner and employees/family members. The company was once making a profit, but in recent years, things have gone downhill.  To get Susana Monaco to improve, Marcus will try to get Susana to trust her instincts and to block out the negative influences of her family and coworkers.

Let's take a look at some information related to Susana Monaco as well as what kind of deal was made on the show.
