You should say.
what this business is.
what the business sells.
how long you have known about the business.
and explain why you like it so much.
Answer.
Actually I discovered a business very recently that I like so much I’d like to do something similar in the future.
it’s a small niche business that runs courses in how to cook.
especially bread.
the owner uses his kitchen for the courses and went into business with a local community shop and sells a lot of the bread and cakes they make in the shop.
I first got to hear about the business last year.
my wife paid for me to do one of the baking courses and I got to know the owner during the training.
it’s a lifestyle business really.
he doesn’t have plans to take on employees or expand into new areas.
he’s happy earning a living doing the thing he loves.
I really admire what he does and I’m sure a lot of people would love to do something similar.
he has a web presence.
in fact that’s how we got to find out about his company.
and he uses social media to raise the company profile.
but he’s the only person involved in running the business so he’s in complete control of where the business goes.
that’s something that must make it really satisfying.
as long as he’s managing to balance the books and the cash flow is healthy I’m sure he must be very pleased with what he has achieved.
