Hi guys,

I'm meant to be meeting with a local entrepreneur who is a family friend to discuss my business idea with him.

He works in the same area in which I hope to establish myself, however I would not be in competition with him. In fact this could possibly lead to work for his firm in the long run.

Basically I have never had a meeting like this before and was looking for advice and tips

I am just looking for him to pick some holes in my ideas and get my brain thinking

What kind of questions should I ask? This is my first business venture btw
