Columbus
I'm launching a photography studio in Columbus next April. I have saved the start-up funds myself, but I have never run a business before. I've questions about pricing, suppliers, simple bookkeeping, hiring and - frankly - how not to burn out. I'm looking for a mentor with real small-business experience, ideally in a photography studio, willing to have a monthly call for the first four months. I'll bring a list of questions and my numbers. If you have a few hours a month, and enjoy helping someone avoid the mistakes you made, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you so much.

    I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Quezon City this morning. Love from Quezon City.
