By then, the problem may already be expensive, emotional, or difficult to fix. This session helps attendees understand how bad contracts, vague employee expectations, unpaid invoices, casual labor arrangements, and careless pricing conversations can create risk long before the owner realizes it. Who Should ComeThis class is for anyone serious about building a real business and growing without getting hosed by the law, by customers, by vendors, by employees, or by unclear systems. It is built for shop owners, decorators hiring their first employees, production leaders moving into management, growing teams, and businesses signing bigger customer or vendor agreements. What They Will Learn Legal Risk Awareness: Learn the common ways small and growing shops create risk through weak agreements, unclear terms, informal promises, and poor documentation. Contracts and Customer Terms: Understand why quotes, proofs, payment terms, deposits, rush fees, cancellations, and scope changes need to be clear before a job goes sideways. HR Basics Before You Hire: Learn why roles, schedules, pay rules, onboarding, discipline, documentation, and employee expectations matter as soon as people join the business. Employees, Contractors, and Accountability: Understand why worker classification, written ownership, due dates, standards, and “what done looks like” expectations protect the business. Pricing and Competition Boundaries: Learn why business owners must be careful with competitor conversations, pricing coordination, and market behavior that could create legal exposure. Documentation That Saves You: Discover how written approvals, signed terms, job notes, employee files, and communication history help protect the business when memories differ. Knowing When to Get Help: Learn when to involve an attorney, accountant, payroll provider, HR advisor, insurance professional, or other specialist before the problem gets more expensive.Show MoreClick the title to see all detailsShow More
