Finding a Non-Competitive Business Mentor

As part of your due diligence on opening an easels retailer, it's essential that you talk to somebody who is already in the business. If you think owners of nearby easels retailers will give you advice, think again. It'd be crazy for them to teach you the business.

Fortunately, somebody who runs an easels retailer in a different city can be a great learning resource for you, given that you don't compete with them in their area. Indeed, many experienced entrepreneurs enjoy offering advice to startup entrepreneurs. It can take a while to find an entrepreneur who is willing to talk, but it's well worth the effort.
