Divina is opening a tailoring studio and needs a mentor who has done it
Looking for a small-business mentor, preferably with tailoring studio experience.
🇵🇭 Philippines328 views
I'm launching a tailoring studio in Manila next August. 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 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.
- effort
- 1 hour a month
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- small business experience, bookkeeping, pricing

Wishing you the best. Hope you get there. Thinking of Manila
Good luck, Divina. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best
wishing you peace, Divina. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like!
Sending love, Divina. Looking forward to the next update. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
Keep going. Hope you make a strong comeback. Don't give up.
Sending strength, Divina. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 36 people at work
Thinking of you. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Ciudad de México.
You're not alone, Divina. I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 9 people at work. Blessings.
This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Pune so I could bring a meal.
Wishing you peace. I hope things turn around soon. Take care!
hope things get better soon. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
hope it all works out. Hope you get there. Love from Malmö.
So sorry you're going through this. Small businesses are the heart of Manila. Hope you're open again soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.
sending good thoughts. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Manila.
Thanks for sharing this. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.
