Riverside
I'm launching a tailoring studio in Riverside next May. 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 tailoring studio, 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

          Rooting for you, Brian. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

          • Wishing you peace, Brian. Hope you get there. We're a small family in Ribeirão Preto but we're thinking of you.
