SFGH partner Jeremy Waitzman to speak at West LegalEdcenter/Financial Poise webinar series titled, "Business Advice - From Startup to Sale 2018: Turning an Idea Product into a Business." The webinar is scheduled to take place on September 20, 2018 at 2:00 PM CT. 

Building the infrastructure of a business around a product or service requires detailed focus upon items that are not intuitive. An early decision founders must make is the selection of legal entity (LLC, Partnership, S Corp, C Corp, Non-Profit) for the business. Another critical action item is to consider steps to protect turf and keep copycats away. Hiring and incentivizing employees and finding a way to finance the business are examples of other key areas that founders need to get right. This webinar provides an overview of these topics and shares some best practices with regard to them.
