Getting Advice from Experienced Entrepreneurs
If you are interested in starting a waterjet cutting services business, it's essential that you talk to somebody who is already in the business. It's very unlikely that the local competition will talk to you. The last thing they want to do is help you to be a better competitor.
Fortunately, somebody who runs a waterjet cutting services business on the other side of the country will be much more likely to talk with you, provided that you won't be directly competing with them. In fact, they are often very willing to share startup advice with you. 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.
