Does any entrepreneur have tips for starting a humble business?
I have started 3 businesses. Last one I sold was doing over 2M in revenue/yr prior to covid lockdowns. Please feel free to email me at grayrubyinvest@gmail.com and I will give you any advice I can.

Can you start it as a side hussle? Evening/weekends working on this while working your main job? Get things established and set yourself up.
My 2 sats; it is easier to scale a small business and grow its profitability to provide you an income than launch a business and need it to be profitable from the get-go.

I already do it that way, 12 hours at work (9hr of workload and 3hr to move by bicycle, approx 1:30 go/return). 1hr to prepare dinner, 3hr or more sewing and the time left is for sleep.
on saturday i only work 4hrs and that's when i can dedicate myself and produce more.

Great effort. You are certainly putting the time in then already!
Are your production systems maximised? Are you selling everything and do your sales channels have capacity (and appetite) for more?
