Finding a Non-Competitive Business Mentor
After you've evaluated your local competitors, it's a wise move to talk to somebody who is already in the business. If you think owners of nearby sand businesses will give you advice, think again. It'd be crazy for them to teach you the business.
Thankfully, an owner of a a sand business on the other side of the country will be much more likely to talk 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. It can take a while to find an entrepreneur who is willing to talk, but it's well worth the effort.
