Hi all. I know you're business-minded folks, and as such probably are very quid pro quo about things. All I can offer on my side is that doing this you will have done a good deed and become known by (literally) a few more people.
I need to 'interview' an entrepreneur for an introductory business course. One's participation would not need be very great, as you'll see below. If interested you would need only to sketch answers to the few questions, enough to give me an idea - or you could be more detailed if you desire your story to be told with utmost accuracy. Here are the questions/specifications:
Your interview must address at a minimum each of the topics below:
Write the report in narrative form. Do not simply list the questions and answers. Identify the entrepreneur, the name of the business, and the location. Your report should be 3-4 pages long, not including a cover page and/or references.
The assignment will be graded on the quality and thoroughness of your interview, how well you addresses the topics related to the business owner and his/her venture, and the level of analysis demonstrated in linking your findings to concepts covered in this course.
So that's the assignment. I would be greatly, eternally appreciative if anyone here chose to participate and help me out. It might even be fun. As I said, if you choose to help, you'd only have to sketch the relevant answers. I'd write the vast majority of the material. Thanks simply for reading. If anyone is interested, I'd need it by the end of the day Friday (the assignment being due by the end of the day Sunday). Thanks again. Get in touch via PM if interested.

Your interview must address at a minimum each of the topics below:
- The Venture. This section addresses why, how, what and when. Why did the entrepreneur decide to go into business? Why this particular business? How did s/he do it? What is the main product or service provided by the business? When was the business started?
- Struggles and Challenges. Difficult issues and/or challenges the business owner has faced, how these were overcome, and what new challenges s/he faces.
- Risks and Rewards.
- Learning on the Journey. What the owner has learned about business and life on this entrepreneurial journey, including any advice on starting and running a business.
- Your Own Learning. This section should address the insights, observations or lessons about business ownership you gained as a result of this interview and report.
