Looking for a small-business mentor, preferably with small online shop experience.

I'm launching a small online shop in London next March. 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 small online shop, 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
- effort
- 1 hour a month
- format
- Online or by phone

Praying for you. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Thinking of London.
Take care. Hope you get there. After 16 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of London.
Best of luck, Thomas. I hope things turn around soon!
Best of luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope March is when things finally get easier.
Thanks for sharing this, Thomas. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Wishing you peace, Thomas. Small businesses are the heart of London. Hope you're open again soon. Wish I lived closer to San Antonio so I could bring a meal!
Keep going, Thomas. Hope the shop reopens soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Sending love, Thomas. Small businesses are the heart of London. Hope you're open again soon
Sending love, Thomas. Shared this with my family. After 6 years in teaching I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
You're not alone. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care!
Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Rockford so I could bring a meal.
Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Kazan donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of London
