Bakersfield
I'm launching a bakery in Bakersfield 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 bakery, willing to have a monthly call for the first six 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. Glad we found this place.

  • Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Bakersfield.
