I'm launching a garage in Benin City 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 garage, 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

praying for you, Joy. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Setagaya so I could bring a meal.
Wishing you peace, Joy. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Hope things get better soon. Small businesses are the heart of Benin City. Hope you're open again soon. All the best.
hang in there, Joy. Your post was clear and honest. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Sending strength, Joy. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Nairobi
