One Decision I'll Never Regret
About three years ago, a trusted colleague told me about a business solution that had been invaluable to his business. This product allowed his company to obtain premium services at a fraction of their normal cost. The affordable price allowed my colleague to use critical services he otherwise would have foregone -- at great cost to his business.
It took me another year to finally listen. I finally purchased this excellent business solution 20 months ago -- and I only wish I'd done it sooner! Now for an incredibly affordable monthly fee (just $40 in my case), I have access to a service that has helped me collect thousands of dollars of bad debt, evaluate and improve my contracts to better ensure compliance, understand complicated employee tax issues (without finding/hiring a separate tax lawyer), and even evaluate an office lease I was considering signing. And, these services that I used are just a subset of what is available to me for the single monthly fee.
This wonderful business service? Pre-Paid Legal Services. It gives me ready access to qualified attorneys I could never justify paying as a regular client. It protects my business against legal issues I might never have foreseen. It has helped me recover lost revenues that by themselves have repaid my fees 10 times over.
I've been so incredibly pleased with this service -- in fact, I feel lucky to have access to it! -- that I absolutely recommend Pre-Paid Legal Services for every professional in the wedding industry. Here are some of the specific reasons why:
Contracts. Every wedding professional uses them -- but how many get them regularly evaluated by a contract lawyer? (Are you sure your contracts are legally binding under current law?)
Changing laws. Laws change. If you're unaware, your operations may not be compliant with the latest legislation. (Are you unknowingly risking a law suit that could crush your business?)
Trademark issues. Unscrupulous wedding vendors often copy successful vendors' trademarked logos, names, taglines. (Can you afford the thousands of dollars it could cost to hire a trademark attorney to defend your marks?)
Litigious brides. Sadly, we live in lawsuit-happy society. The wedding industry is no exception. In fact, the huge expenses associated with a wedding (and the temptation for many to overspend the budget) may make a frivolous lawsuit even more tempting. (If an unthinkable, frivolous lawsuit happens, will you be forced to settle -- paying out of your pocket -- because you couldn't afford to fight?)
Depending on the size of your business, your needs may be covered by a Pre-Paid Legal Plan that costs as little as $40/month. If you already consult a lawyer once a year, you may be paying more than that in legal fees -- and, undoubtedly, avoiding using lawyers when you know you should, just to save money. Don't you owe it to your business (and yourself!) to check Pre-Paid Legal Services out?

Thanks for the tip. Have you come across something similar for accounting?
Hi Delilah,
I don't know of anything like Prepaid Legal for accounting ... but, man, that is a good idea! If something like that materializes, I'd be very interested in it, too. Will you post again if you find something :)?
