Getting Advice from Experienced Entrepreneurs

If you want to open an enrolled agents business be sure to talk to somebody who is already in the business. If you think your local competitors will give you advice, you're being overoptimistic. Why would they want to educate a future competitor?

On the other hand, an individual who has an enrolled agents business outside of your community can be a great learning resource for you, as long as they don't view you as a competitive threat. In that case, the business owner may be more than happy to discuss the industry with you. If you are persistent, you can find a business mentor who is willing to help you out.
