Virtual Business Program: 5 Tips for Forming a New Business

Navigating the twists and turns of business formation is much easier with the knowledge of a helmsman who can help avoid the worst case scenario: lawsuits and State and Federal violations

Often, self-help books and the internet can offer advice and assistance, but there is no substitute for a workshop where questions can be asked of an expert and answers given on the spot.

In this free webinar, you will be guided through the maze of laws and regulations that can be frustrating and misleading to the budding entrepreneur.

This workshop will be led by SCORE volunteer Marty Clayman, an attorney with many years of business and litigation experience.

You will learn:

• How trade names and trademarks are differentiated
• How to figure out if your business name has already been taken
• How to know when you need a written Operating Agreement or by-laws
• How your entity can enter into a contract without incurring personal liability
• How to find out if your business needs a license or permit
• The benefit of a commercial line of credit
