As an entrepreneur, you should always be prepared for any questions that come your way. After all, many often look up to entrepreneurs as leaders who can provide inspiration for success.

We’ve previously covered the basics on how to unleash your networking potential, but we now want to take it one step further. How can entrepreneurs learn from other entrepreneurs?

The best way to get inspiration for your business is to ask others how they got theirs. So, if you ever get the opportunity to speak with someone who is extremely successful and whom you admire, here are some great go-to questions:

1. What is the best advice anyone has ever given you?

2. What is a quote or a mantra that you live by?

3. What is the single most important reason for your success?

4. What is the best advice that you can give a young entrepreneur?

5. Do you have any other contacts that I could meet and speak with?

None of us made it on our own – so don’t be afraid to ask to ask questions. One day, you’ll be the one that others turn to for advice and help. It’s wonderful to see the unleashed potential come full circle, so remember those who helped you in the beginning and be sure to return the favor by helping other young entrepreneurs down the road.
