I'm launching a cleaning company in Kanpur next August. 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 cleaning company, willing to have a monthly call for the first three 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

      So sorry you're going through this. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless

      • Rooting for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Please keep us posted. All the best!

        • Sending love, Purvi. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.

          • Good luck, Purvi. Small businesses are the heart of Kanpur. Hope you're open again soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.

            • Thinking of you, Purvi. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Ciudad de México.

              • Wishing you the best, Purvi. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. All the best.

                • you're not alone, Purvi. Gave what I could, wish it was more

                  • Sending good thoughts, Purvi. Small businesses are the heart of Kanpur. Hope you're open again soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Warangal.

                    • It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 19 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Toulon.

                      • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in İzmir but we're thinking of you. Blessings.

                          This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Kanpur.

                          • You're not alone, Purvi. Hope this works out for you. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Badagry

                            • So sorry you're going through this. Small businesses are the heart of Kanpur. Hope you're open again soon. Take care.
