For this challenge you have to receive help from 10 people BUT you have to ask them, people doing it without being asked doesn't count. Nor can all these 10 people be online.

Is anyone up to the challenge?

    I'm baffled. What is the purpose of this?

    Me too?

    Googling it doesnt help either.
  • This is the small business and charity thread, does that help?

    I can't see how it is fundamentally different from "obtaining X amount of money" or "not buy toiletries". Help is help.

    No - give us another clue .
    Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill

    too vague, define what "help" is, since help can be in many forms

    Is there any reason why you're speaking in riddles?

    You might get better responses if you actually tell us what you're talking about?

    I'm fed up with people wanting explanation to an obvious challenge. I'm just going to try and find 10 people to help with my small business/freelancing and if you don't understand, don't bother with the challenge.

    Firstly, why not just say that in the first place?

    Secondly, with an attitude like yours, i can see why (a) your business needs help, and (b) you're unlikely to get it.

    I think I get it, so it's to encourage you to seek help or advice from a new source that will hopefully open new doors? So I could, for instance, take my goods to a local shop to ask for feedback, speak to the council about a business grant, enquire about craft fairs, etc.
