Turning Competitors Into Collaborators

If you are seriously contemplating launching a skin care cosmetics business, it's essential that you learn from folks who are already in business. If you think owners of nearby skin care cosmetics businesses will give you advice, think again. It'd be crazy for them to teach you the business.

But, a person who owns a skin care cosmetics business in another town may be more than happy to give you a few tips, provided that you won't be directly competing with them. In that case, the business owner may be more than happy to discuss the industry with you. 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.

How would you find an entrepreneur who is running a skin care cosmetics business who is willing to advise you because you live in different cities?

It's easy. Here's a link you can use to find a mentor outside of your area.
