Doris 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 Sacramento next January. 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Sending good thoughts, Doris. Hope you get there.
Stay strong. Small businesses are the heart of Sacramento. Hope you're open again soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Belo Horizonte
Take care, Doris. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
Good luck, Doris. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Greetings from Mumbai
hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Paris.
