Autumn’s manifesto: why legal matters for your business (S5E171)

If you listen to just one episode of the Legal Road Map® podcast, let this be it.

In the final episode - at least for the foreseeable future - Autumn shares takeaways from the past 5 years of running her own law firm, what all online business owners need to know about legal protection to build a sustainable, profitable business, and more.

In this episode, we’ll cover:

  • How entrepreneurship can help you live your values
  • Why putting legal protections in place early can help you build the business of your dreams faster and with less stress
  • (One last time for the cheap seats in the back!...) Why contracts are THE most important legal protection for your online business
  • Why you DON’T need to spend money on ALL the legal things when you’re just getting started
  • Why -- and when -- you should add an attorney to your bench of professionals to build a sustainable, profitable business
