I'm launching a catering business in Johannesburg 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 catering business, 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
- effort
- 1 hour a month
- format

Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Johannesburg.
wishing you peace. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Put this on a community board in Allentown this morning. Thinking of Johannesburg.
Wishing you peace, Refilwe. Small businesses are the heart of Johannesburg. Hope you're open again soon. Wish I lived closer to Ogbomosho so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Johannesburg.
You're not alone. This could happen to any of us. Love from Bekasi.
