I'm launching a co-working café in Newport next September. 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 co-working café, 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
- effort
- 1 hour a month
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- small business experience, bookkeeping, pricing

Sending good thoughts, Khadija. Shared this with my family.
You're not alone. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
Good luck, Khadija. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
Thinking of you, Khadija. This could happen to any of us. Love from Machakos
This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Toronto but we're thinking of you.
Wishing you peace. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
You're not alone. I hope things turn around soon. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Love from Medellín.
Praying for you, Khadija. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless.
Wishing you the best. Hope the shop reopens soon. Take care.
Thinking of you and your family. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Abbottabad.
Wishing you the best. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts, Khadija. Hope the shop reopens soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking
Your post was clear and honest. After 30 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care
Praying for you, Khadija. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Newport.
