A Good Source of Advice
After you've evaluated your local competitors, it's essential that you talk to somebody who is already in the business. It's very unlikely that the local competition will talk to you. What's in it for them?
However, an entrepreneur who owns a pet supplies delivery services business in another town may be willing to share their entrepreneurial wisdom with you, after they realize you reside far away from them and won't be stealing their local customers. Indeed, many experienced entrepreneurs enjoy offering advice to startup entrepreneurs. In my experience, you may have to call ten business owners in order to find one who is willing to share his wisdom with you.
