If there's too much competition, it may be wise to consider starting the business in a less competitive marketplace.

Finding a Non-Competitive Business Mentor

If you are seriously contemplating launching a building code and zoning consultants business, it's a smart move to speak with somebody who is already in the business. If you think owners of nearby building code and zoning consultants businesses will give you advice, think again. The last thing they want to do is help you to be a better competitor.

But, a person who owns a building code and zoning consultants business outside of your community may be willing to share their entrepreneurial wisdom with 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. Our estimate is that you may have to contact many business owners to find one who is willing to share his wisdom with you.
