I'm launching a photography studio in Johannesburg next December. 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 photography studio, 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

      Sending love. Hope the shop reopens soon. Love from Noida.

      • hope things get better soon, Zola. Looking forward to the next update. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Jessore

        • Hang in there, Zola. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Don't give up.

          • Thinking of you, Zola. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Rabat donated after I showed her your page.

            • Hope it all works out, Zola. Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.

              • Hope it all works out, Zola. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours

                  hope you make a strong comeback. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Johannesburg

                  • Wishing you the best, Zola. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.

                    • Best of luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Johannesburg

                      • good luck. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out

                        • Hope it all works out. Hope you make a strong comeback. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.

                          • I hope things turn around soon. Love from Gujranwala

                              • So sorry you're going through this. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in San Nicolás de los Garza donated after I showed her your page. Take care
