Bronx
I'm launching a bakery in Bronx 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 bakery, 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

  • Keep going, Rachel. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 29 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Bronx.
