I'm launching a small online shop in Kozhikode 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 small online shop, 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Thinking of you and your family, Ankit. Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
Praying for you, Ankit. Your post was clear and honest. After 9 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
rooting for you, Ankit. Hope this works out for you. Don't give up. Love from Birmingham.
thinking of you, Ankit. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best.
Keep going. Small businesses are the heart of Kozhikode. Hope you're open again soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.
Praying for you, Ankit. Shared this with my family. Please keep us posted. Love from Newcastle upon Tyne.
Hope things get better soon, Ankit. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Londrina.
