Learning More About the Industry
If you want to open an engineering surveys business it's essential that you have a conversation with someone who is in the business. Local competitors are not going to give you the time of day, mind you. Why would they want to educate a future competitor?
However, a fellow entrepreneur who has started an engineering surveys business in a location that is not competitive to you may be willing to share their entrepreneurial wisdom with you, given that you don't compete with them in their area. 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.
How would you find an engineering surveys business owner who is willing to advise you because you live in different cities?

Is Franchising the Right Option?
Your chances of achieving the entrepreneurial goal of growing your business are much greater when you choose to franchise and leverage their successful brand and track record.
