    1. a supplier we have used for years suddenly wants full payment upfront, how are you handling this?
    2. I’m doing all the “right” things to find clients… and getting crickets. What am I missing?
    3. I spent 10 years thinking about then built a ticketing platform. Launched it. Almost nobody will try it — even my friends. What am I doing wrong?
