Scaling up? Hire a good business lawyer with Attorney Chris Johnsen | S2E003 Sales Team Ready Podcast

    • Marketing

There will be numerous factors to consider as you expand your business:


✅Do you have the right people in place to help your business grow?


✅Do you have the infrastructure to support your expansion?


✅Do you have the processes needed to take your business to the next level?








While you must address these big questions, on the one hand, you must also deal with the day-to-day minutiae of running your business on the other.





It's time to face the music: you can't keep doing things on your own especially when you are scaling up.





This is why every successful business owner has an experienced business lawyer on their team. Although the benefits of employing a lawyer may not be as obvious as that of hiring an accountant, the reality is that a good business attorney can assist you with practically any aspect of your organization. We're talking about anything from basic zoning compliance to handling potential lawsuits and liabilities down the road.





On today's podcast, we'll be joined by an expert business law practitioner whose legal expertise spans small to large corporate clients in a variety of industries. An entrepreneur himself, Attorney Chris Johnsen offers an unrivaled, dual approach to solving the toughest problems facing today’s businesses.





Take our word for it - getting the help of a trusted business lawyer is critical to your success.

Key Takeaways:

✅A good business lawyer never imposes. Rather, he or she facilitates how you can get from point A to point B without legal concerns.


✅Having a smooth exit strategy, whether it be via succession or sale, is critical for your company's health and future.


✅As you expand, it is crucial to build a relationship with your business lawyer.
