I just started asking after trying to grow my art business on my own for over 5 years! Asked for vendors for a free pop up shop I'm offering to do for other entrepreneurs, when helping people it does come back. One of those entrepreneurs that signed up for my pop up shop offered to interview me on their radio station, so will keep asking for helping with business matters and see where it goes and offer help back too.

Thought this was a really interesting approach. Tried putting it into practice and have to say I was really surprised how most people are generally willing to help when asked.

OMG this is the most uninteresting Ted I've ever seen in my life
