Turning Competitors Into Collaborators

As part of your due diligence on opening a spools business, the next step is to learn from folks who are already in business. If you think owners of nearby spools businesses will give you advice, think again. The last thing they want to do is help you to be a better competitor.

Fortunately, somebody who runs a spools business in a location that is not competitive to you can be a great learning resource for you, once they realize that you are not going to directly compete with them in their community. 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.
