A Good Source of Advice
If you are seriously contemplating launching a drafting engineers business, it's essential that you learn from folks who are already in business. It's very unlikely that the local competition will talk to you. Why would they want to educate a future competitor?
But, a person who owns a drafting engineers business in a different city will be much more likely to talk with you, provided that you won't be directly competing with them. Indeed, many experienced entrepreneurs enjoy offering advice to startup entrepreneurs. Our estimate is that you may have to contact many business owners to find one who is willing to share his wisdom with you.
