Getting Advice from Experienced Entrepreneurs

If you are seriously contemplating launching a photography studio rental business, it's a wise move to have a conversation with someone who is in the 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 photography studio rental business in a different city will be much more likely to talk with you, given that you don't compete with them in their area. 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.
