Cover Your Assets

Hey SMARTYs

Having seen the many sides of self employment
(The incredibly good, bad & UGLY), I thought it was important to have an evening like the one planned for next Tuesday October 16th. While what you don't know may not kill you, it can throw your business into a loop, which is never fun.

The power of a good attorney is undeniable-knowing you have someone who is on your side, covering your you-know-what, and always guiding you around the inevitable road bumps as you grow and develop your business.


Next Tuesday night, SMARTY SD gets the pleasure of sitting down with Pollie, Kylie Sara & Debra (four of SD's SMARTest female attorneys) at Hera Hub as they answer your questions and guide you through an entrepreneur's most common legal concerns.

Know your Exposure

Happy Friday SMARTYs!

If you're in business for yourself you've GOT to know your exposure.

What you don't know may not kill you but it could certainly create a much-less-than-favorable scenario for your Biz!

I am very excited to bring to you four of SD's best and brightest female attorneys - here to answer your questions and guide you through an entrepreneur's most common legal concerns.

If you're looking to:

  • Start your own business
  • Grow your existing business
  • Sell/License/Franchise your business
  • OR if you have legal questions regarding your business
Then you want to be at our upcoming SMARTY SD event on Tuesday, October 16th at Hera Hub

Did you know that?

-You acquire copy rights in your work the moment you create that work (blog post, newsletter, photograph, power point.)

- If you misclassify an employee as an independent contractor you could be fined up to $15,000 per violation?

- You could record your copyrights or trademarks with U.S. Customs to prevent knockoffs from coming in the country?

...Yea, me either.

Join SMARTY SD and our expert legal panelist for a night of great insight & fun!

See you there...

Cheers!

-Priscilla

4. Membership Prices (cue the depressing music.)
With all this growth comes the fact that we have held out as long as possible on raising Membership prices. As of September, new Members will pay $299 for a Big SMARTY Membership, just like Los Angeles Members. Included in this new price is an all-access market pass, meaning SD Big SMARTY Members can also come to any event in LA or OC    for FREE!

That means until September, you can STILL get a SMARTY Membership for just $199! Get it while it's cheap, ladies!

I love seeing all of you and hope to see you at an upcoming event soon! Please keep your great feedback coming. It's because of your insights that we can build the great programming we are able to do!

Priscilla
