Scaling Credit Portfolio - Ideas?

I have a small credit strategy that will hit the limit of what my partner and I can comfortably fund within 3 or 4 months. 

Total amount in play will be under $5m.  

Was thinking of reselling slices to investors. Any other ideas? If I wanted to scale this, who would I borrow from? I think overall capacity for this strategy is quite small…can maybe put 35mm to 50mm to work, maybe more but that is pushing it. 

Ideas? Not familiar with credit. I assume there’s someone upstream I can borrow from the same way independent sponsors sometimes work with PE firms on the equity side? Caveat would be that they need to be ok working with us knowing the strategy is not about to scale into something with massive capacity
