Carolina is opening a bakery and needs a mentor who has done it

A short monthly mentoring call on pricing, suppliers and bookkeeping would help a first-time founder.

I'm launching a bakery in Santos next December. 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 bakery, 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

      You're not alone, Carolina. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.

          I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Santos.

            Sending strength. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor in Warsaw donated after I showed her your page. Love from Warsaw.
