Getting Advice from Experienced Entrepreneurs
As part of your due diligence on opening an office furniture installation service, the next step is to learn from folks who are already in business. It's very unlikely that the local competition will talk to you. Why would they want to educate a future competitor?
However, an entrepreneur who owns an office furniture installation service in a location that is not competitive to you will be much more likely to talk with you, given that you don't compete with them in their area. Many business owners are happy to give advice to new entrepreneurs 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.
