Building your business dream team - make sure you have legal help!

Every Entrepreneur knows that when you start a small business, it is impossible to handle all of the demands that may come your way.  Building a business support team to watch your back is critical to the success of your business.  Here is a list of people that should be added to your dream team to ensure the best chance of success.


Your Dream Team:

  • Accountant - having a great accountant is worth his/her weight in gold.  An accountant can make sure your books are in order, that you are following tax laws, and that you are getting the maximum tax relief you are entitled to. 

  •  Marketing professional - Many new business owners do not have a marketing degree, so bringing in a professional to help you market your service or product is critical.  A professional marketer will be able to advise you on the best advertising mediums, help craft your message and branding and help you target the appropriate demographics.

  • Mentor - If you can find someone who has experience in your business to mentor you, share what has worked, mistakes they have made, and opportunities that have worked, you will have a head start!

Round out your team with a Legal Adviser


No matter what business you are in, having a competent legal adviser at the Lake of the Ozarks can make the difference on whether you are successful or not.  There will be many hoops to jump through just getting the business started and you want to make sure you are complying with the various local, county, state or federal requirements for your new business.  A great legal adviser can also help you setup your business with the proper tax structure for your situation, help arbitrate or mediate any disputes, help protect your trademark, ensure your contracts are legally correct, and help you with your exit strategy for when you sell your business.  There may be low cost solutions for legal services being advertised, but having a local, experienced lawyer in your corner that you trust can save you many headaches now and down the road.
