Home Running A Business Learn While You Work: Advice From The Faces of Main Street
Here at Lendio, our passion is seeing people live the American Dream. Not only are people improving their own lives by running a business, they’re improving a community. A lot of people we interview for Faces of Main Street powered by Lendio, a site dedicated to telling every entrepreneur’s story, give some really great business advice. Here is some insightful advice on becoming a better business owner by learning while you work.
Business Owner: Brooke Cates Business: Blooming Bellies Fitness Location: Boulder, Colorado
Advice: “My path with Blooming Bellies Fitness and The Bloom Method have been a beautiful evolution since day one. I have learned more than I ever thought and have become more attached to my work in a beautifully inspiring way.”

Business Owner: Drew Danburry Business: Danburry Barbershop Location: Provo, Utah
Advice: “People are always sold bad advice, and I feel there’s no simple maxim about it, life is a learning process, you gather information your entire life, and if you’re not, then you’re failing. I’m always honest with everybody and a lot of people don’t like it, but for some people it’s a real breath of fresh air.
I think that the best thing that I could say to a person wanting to open a business is don’t open your business based on the idea that you’re going to make a cool place where people will want to hang out, because that never works, for anything or anyone. Just come up with a service that you think people need that people aren’t doing yet, and do something unique.”
