A business mentor for Leah's new bakery in Leeds
A short monthly mentoring call on pricing, suppliers and bookkeeping would help a first-time founder.

I'm launching a bakery in Leeds next October. 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 bakery, 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
- effort
- 1 hour a month
- format

Rooting for you, Leah. Small businesses are the heart of Leeds. Hope you're open again soon. Put this on a community board in Detroit this morning. Take care
sending strength. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Addis Ababa so I could bring a meal. Love from Embakasi.
So sorry you're going through this, Leah. Hope you get there. After 9 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Sending good thoughts, Leah. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up. Thinking of Leeds
So sorry you're going through this, Leah. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up.
Stay strong. Small businesses are the heart of Leeds. Hope you're open again soon. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Wishing you peace, Leah. Small businesses are the heart of Leeds. Hope you're open again soon
Rooting for you, Leah. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best
good luck, Leah. Hope the shop reopens soon. My husband and I read this together.
Small businesses are the heart of Leeds. Hope you're open again soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
you're not alone, Leah. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Hyderabad
Good luck. Your post was clear and honest. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
Hang in there, Leah. Hope the shop reopens soon. All the best!
So sorry you're going through this, Leah. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Chattanooga.
Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Zaporizhzhia so I could bring a meal. God bless
