"The most important thing you must do if you are going to become a podcasting professional and make money in this field is get your legal affairs in order."
You might be thinking...
It's too expensive.
It's true, hiring lawyers to get your legal affairs handled IS an expensive proposition. Easy Legal For Podcasters is different. With this program, you do your legal yourself, with our expert guidance, instruction and resources.
I can't afford it.
Can you really afford NOT to? Isn't it more expensive NOT to get your legal affairs in order. Aren't you leaving money on the table?
How much more money could you make if you just invest in positioning yourself as a professional so you can more effectively monetize your podcast?
Risks? What risks?
One lawsuit is all it takes to bankrupt most individuals. Podcasting is media, and media has the potential to cause harm. Say the wrong thing, use the wrong bit of material, or hurt someone's reputation. That's all it takes. Not to mention the risk that someone on your team will decide that they're a co-owner, or worse, that they're the sole-owner, and try to push you out. You may not see them, but there ARE risks. Getting your legal affairs in order helps reduce those risks. It just makes sense.
I don't need to / I'm too small to be at risk.
Are you, really too small? Do you want to stay that way, or do you want to grow, and increase your income? Until you get your legal protections in place, you'll remain risk-averse.
Professionals take risks that propel their businesses because they know they've got their protections in place.
Consider this:
You (probably) don't need a Lawyer.
IMy fellow attorneys don't want me to tell you this, but unless your business is fairly complex, you can do much of the legal work yourself. (Especially if you've got a resource like Easy Legal For Podcasters to show you the way) Do you know anyone who's DIY'd their legal affairs successfully?
If you can figure out podcasting, you've got this.
(It'll seem downright easy!)
Business and legal stuff is only scary if you don't know what to do. With this program, if you can follow step-by-step instructions and fill out simple forms, you can totally do this.
You're only small because you're not playing big.
How will you ever grow bigger until you start playing the bigger game. That means acting like a pro by handling your business and legal affairs.
Can you really afford NOT to get your legal and business affairs in order? If not now, when will you start taking your business (and yourself) seriously?
How long have you already waited?
Sure it takes a bit of time (not as much as you think) to get your legal affairs squared away. But that's no excuse for waiting. The longer you wait, the farther off your success will stay. Isn't it worth investing a bit of time now so you can play big and step on the gas in your business?
