You have a very confused and short-termist view of how a business operates. You realise x% doesnt roll off the customers credit cards straight into employees payroll?

The money would most likely come from existing cash positions. In more extreme circumstances it could come from the disposal of assets. If the business is viewed to be viable and profitable in the long term, it could come from some manner of borrowing.
