A business mentor for Véronique's new language school in Bordeaux
A short monthly mentoring call on pricing, suppliers and bookkeeping would help a first-time founder.

I'm launching a language school in Bordeaux next September. 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 language school, 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Hang in there. I hope things turn around soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Bordeaux
Wishing you the best, Véronique. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Take care
sending good thoughts, Véronique. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
Stay strong, Véronique. Small businesses are the heart of Bordeaux. Hope you're open again soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Islamabad.
A colleague of mine might know someone for this in Nouvelle-Aquitaine. I'll ask around and let you know
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Keep going, Véronique. Shared this with my family. Love from Ikeja.

Thinking of you, Véronique. Small businesses are the heart of Bordeaux. Hope you're open again soon. After 12 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
Take care, Véronique. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.

Thinking of you and your family, Véronique. Hope this works out for you. After 10 years in hospitality I know how hard it is to ask for anything
