Studying the Market
If you want to open a bus dealers business it's a wise move to learn as much as you can from somebody who is already in the business. If you think owners of nearby bus dealers businesses will give you advice, think again. Why would they want to educate a future competitor?
But, a person who owns a bus dealers business on the other side of the country may be willing to share their entrepreneurial wisdom with you, after they realize you reside far away from them and won't be stealing their local customers. 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.
