We've interviewed thousands of successful founders at Starter Story and asked what advice they would give to entrepreneurs who are just getting started.

Here's the best advice we discovered for starting an axe throwing business:

#1: James Anderson, founder of Forged Axe Throwing:

We chatted with with James, founder of Forged Axe Throwing ($60K/month). In our interview, James says:

We had a lineup out the door for ages and introduced hundreds of people to our venue. We even ran out of waivers because we couldn’t anticipate how busy we were going to be.

Additionally:

The current marketing/advertising narrative is that print is dead/dying and you should spend all your money online. Our experience has been different. There’s been lots of “traditional” advertising avenues that have produced huge results.

Further:

As soon as you launch a business you sort of get a “new business halo”, there’s lots of buzz and people just want to come check you out! That fades quickly though so don’t rely on it for too long.

We chatted with with Stuart, founder of Stumpy’s Hatchet House ($80K/month). In our interview, Stuart says:

We have learned many things along the way, but the biggest lesson is that you can never know too much!

Additionally:

There are many hurdles that business owners need to jump, especially in getting their business started. Falls are to be expected, but you can’t get discouraged.
