Finding a Non-Competitive Business Mentor
If you are interested in starting a theatrical stages business, it's a smart move to speak with somebody who is already in the business. Local competitors are not going to give you the time of day, mind you. The last thing they want to do is help you to be a better competitor.
But, a person who owns a theatrical stages business in a location that is not competitive to you 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 fact, they are often very willing to share startup advice with you. If you are persistent, you can find a business mentor who is willing to help you out.
Where would you find a theatrical stages business founder outside of your area who is willing to talk?

Don't Forget About Franchising As an Option
Your chances of achieving the entrepreneurial goal of thriving in your new business are much greater if you become a franchisee rather than going it alone.
Before you consider starting a theatrical stages business, it's worthwhile to check out whether buying a franchise could be the right move for you.
