Looking for a small-business mentor, preferably with small online shop experience.
🇳🇬 Nigeria544 views
I'm launching a small online shop in Lagos 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 small online shop, 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
- effort
- 1 hour a month
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- small business experience, bookkeeping, pricing

Hope it all works out. Small businesses are the heart of Lagos. Hope you're open again soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best.
Thinking of you. Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Bakersfield this morning
Wishing you peace, Idowu. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes
You're not alone. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 10 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 29 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Lagos.
Keep going, Idowu. Hope this works out for you.
Sending love, Idowu. Hope the shop reopens soon. I hope November is when things finally get easier.
Hope things get better soon, Idowu. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings
Thinking of you, Idowu. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings.
