A short monthly mentoring call on pricing, suppliers and bookkeeping would help a first-time founder.

I'm launching a dog-grooming salon in Rome next August. 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 dog-grooming salon, 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Sending good thoughts, Polina. This could happen to any of us. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Small businesses are the heart of Rome. Hope you're open again soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best
