Business Law for Entrepreneurs

Course details

Should I incorporate my business?

Do I need a board of directors? What can they do for me?

What exactly is a partnership agreement? 

In this super-simple primer, you'll learn the basics of business structures, agency, and contracts, specially designed for those who are launching or running a new business.

If you're an entrepreneur who's ready to easily master the basics of business law, corporations, and contracts, this course is for you.

Leverage Your Business to Greater Success by Mastering Legal Principles.

I created this course because I hated to see so many smart, focused, entrepreneurial adult students struggle with the basics of business law in my classroom.

I have practiced, researched, and/or taught law in two countries and yes, it's complicated - but the principals of law are so incredibly powerful, so perfectly developed to turbocharge your business efforts (or sink them, if you don't know the basics) that I set out to teach this in an easy, accessible manner so anyone can master the basics, speak the language, and even enjoy the learning.

This I firmly believe:

If you're smart enough to launch or run a business, or even launch your own professional career, you're more than smart enough to master the fundamentals of business law.

So I designed this narrated video series for smart, hard-working adults who are brand new to law, and not ready to commit to a complicated course series.

Each narrated video includes a quick concept overview, storyline update, learning review, vocabulary lists, questions for thought -- all this in just 2 to 3-minutes - followed by a super-simple spot-check quiz to position you for success from the very first lesson.
