I'm launching a language school in Novosibirsk next July. 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 language school, willing to have a monthly call for the first four 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

good luck, Maksym. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Bengaluru but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
You're not alone. I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Good luck, Maksym. Small businesses are the heart of Novosibirsk. Hope you're open again soon. We're a small family in Nagpur but we're thinking of you!
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Peoria this morning. Love from Peoria
Hope you make a strong comeback. Thinking of Novosibirsk!

So sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Obuasi but we're thinking of you.
Shared it with a few friends. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.
Stay strong. Your post was clear and honest. My husband and I read this together. Love from Alcalá de Henares

Best of luck, Maksym. Small businesses are the heart of Novosibirsk. 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. All the best
Take care, Maksym. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Caloocan donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
Keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 13 people at work. Love from Buenos Aires!
