Finding a Non-Competitive Business Mentor

As part of your due diligence on opening a fish and wildlife consultants business, it's essential that you speak with somebody who is already in the business. It's very unlikely that the local competition will talk to you. Why would they want to educate a future competitor?

Indeed, many experienced entrepreneurs enjoy offering advice to startup 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.

It's not that hard. Just use the handy link below and enter in a random city/state or zipcode.
