I'm launching a bakery in Ankara next June. 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 three 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    you're not alone, Özlem. Your post was clear and honest. I hope June is when things finally get easier. Love from Liverpool.

    • Hang in there, Özlem. Hope you make a strong comeback. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Toulon.

        Sending strength, Özlem. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Campinas.

        • Hope things get better soon, Özlem. Hope you make a strong comeback. All the best.

          • Thinking of you and your family, Özlem. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Take care.

            • Sending love, Özlem. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Ankara.

              • Looking forward to the next update. Put this on a community board in Entebbe this morning.
