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 a therapy business:

#1: Janine Halloran, founder of Coping Skills for Kids:

We chatted with with Janine, founder of Coping Skills for Kids ($20K/month). In our interview, Janine says:

I had a hard time dealing with failure in the beginning. Over time, I realized that I learned the most from my failures. Even though my subscription box failed, that actually made it easier for me to launch the next products I created.

Additionally:

The biggest lesson I learned is that even if you don’t know it yet, you can find a course, website, or a podcast to help you.

Further:

It can feel impossible when you’re faced with tasks that you have no idea where to start. But it is good to know that you can learn to do the things that are not in your area of expertise/training. There are lots of resources out there, you just have to go looking for them.

We chatted with with Koby, founder of Quirk ($/month). In our interview, Koby says:

Just get started. Jump in and start failing. Then fail over and over and over again. 7 years later I’m still failing, but I’m doing it in new and exciting ways.

Additionally:

Every business I have started came with its own challenges and unique problems. The most important skill you can have is to be able to learn new things.

Since the last time I was featured, I’ve doubled my monthly revenue - thanks in large part to the launch of the Coping Skills for Teens Workbook in March 2020.

Additionally:

Don’t fall for the gurus who tell you what to do in your business. Think about what will work for your personality, your products, and how you want to market.
