Advice for Starting a Business

We asked "What is one piece of advice you would give to someone starting a business?" on our Friends of the Nutmeg Collective page and wanted to share the advice.

"Don't be in a rush...it will take time...lots and lots of time. Just get ready for the ride!"

~Cindy from 24 Peace

"Believe in yourself and your ability to make it happen.As there will be a lot of people telling you why you can't..."

~Gracia of Grassillini Creations

"Allot plenty of time for each task you do -- it takes time to do things well. i like to estimate how much time i *think* something will take and then multiply that by 3 to get a realistic number."

~Kaci of tinymack

"Use Etsy's shipping labels..."

~Suzanne of Smirking Goddess

Nothing ever goes exactly how you dream it will, but don't get discouraged - just keep at it!
~Vanessa of QueenVanna Creations

"Have a local mindset first 

instead of thinking to take over the world.

You can take over the world later..."

~Cyn of RiverDog Prints
