Ryan shares his journey from launching a law firm in his early twenties to revolutionising legal services with a subscription model.We talk about:The importance of having clear business contracts and avoiding common legal pitfallsHow AI is impacting business operations and the legal risks you need to be aware ofKey legal considerations when hiring freelancers and protecting intellectual propertyThis episode will equip you with essential legal knowledge to protect your business.About Ryan LiskAt just 21 years old Ryan Lisk took the leap and founded his own law firm, determined to make legal services more accessible, transparent, and business-friendly. Now, as the founder of Hybrid Legal, he helps UK businesses navigate complex legal challenges with practical, cost-effective solutions.As a law student helping a startup with legal issues Ryan quickly realised how inaccessible legal support was for small businesses. Instead of following the traditional law firm model, he founded Hybrid Legal to focus on clear, fixed-fee pricing and straightforward legal advice - no jargon, no hidden costs with a flexible subscription model.Ryan has worked with startups, growing businesses, and well-known brands to protect their interests and simplify legal complexities. Through founding his own law firm, Ryan has experienced the highs and lows of running a business and knows what it takes to start a business from scratch and scale it to 7 figures.When he's not at work, Ryan can be found running around after his 1 year old daughter and crazy Hungarian Vizsla. He's also learning the martial art of 8 limbs, Muay Thai, where he is constantly humbled by teenagers in the class. Key TakeawaysA handshake isn't enough - formal contracts protect both parties and prevent costly disputes.AI is transforming business, but it also brings legal risks - understand how your data is being used.Subscription-based legal services provide cost-effective and transparent solutions for businesses.Website compliance matters - ensure your privacy policies and terms of use align with GDPR.Hiring freelancers? Secure intellectual property rights and confidentiality agreements in writing.Shareholders' agreements are essential for business stability - plan for future challenges now.Quote"Go careful with putting intellectual property into AI and relying on what comes out of it to be your own IP.

Let's talk about AI and business contracts. If you're like me, you're always on the lookout for tools that could streamline our work processes, save us time and of course, save us a bit of money. But when it comes to something as critical as business contracts, should we actually entrust this task to AI? This discussion is more important than ever, considering AI is becoming an indelible part of our lives, whether we like it or not.To give you some context, when I talk about AI in this realm, I refer to the likes of generative AI and anthropic AI, such as chatbots like ChatGPT and Claude AI. They're great at churning out content, but when the stakes are high and involve the legalities of business contracts, there's a lot to consider. Today, we'll unpack some of the looming questions around AI, exploring: - Whether AI should have a role in developing business contracts- The risk of breaching confidentiality when using AI for automating business contracts- The importance of incorporating human knowledge into AI contract review and analysis- The positive side of AI in businessWhile AI offers some intriguing prospects, when it comes to the complexities and nuances of business contracts, I would advise caution. The technology isn't yet advanced enough to replace the tailored, up-to-date expertise required in legal practices. As we tread this fast-moving landscape, let's focus on harnessing AI to benefit our businesses, but always within the parameters of due diligence and legal compliance.LINKS:Episode Website:  https://tmsolicitor.com.au/rise-up-in-business-podcast/Discover the Masterclass Series hereCheck Your Legals with the Essential Legal Checklist hereBook a Free 20-minute Initial Consult with me hereJoin me on Instagram here

Our FREE template to creating a giveaway for your business. Maximize your marketing efforts with our Marketing Course! Key Take-aways: 1. There are different contacts for your business in different states. 2. You can put anything in a contract, but it doesn't mean it can be enforced in your state. 3. Don't charge for things that are unreasonable, for instance the full service price. 4. Make sure your policy is clear, written and easily found on your website. 5. If a client is booking online and checks a box to agree to the policy, it's in written form and easier to enforce the charge. 6. If you don't have clarity on how charges work, when and what the stipulation is, it will be harder to legally hold the charge against the client. 7. Usually what can legally be held against you as a service provider is what you don't include, not what you do include. 8. Be careful when asking to hold credit card information, you need to get authorization to charge their card. 9. As far as holding a non-compete for an employee, it is meant to protect both parties. It's a red flag if a salon has you sign a non-compete if you are a 1099. 10. A non-compete shouldn't prohibit an employee from being able to work if they left. 11. As an employee, consider negotiating the terms of the contract before finalizing. 12. As a freelancer when signing a contract with a brand, if asked for a non-compete for a longer duration, negotiate either a higher rate or for a shorter timeframe. Keep in mind, the brand's contract doesn't typically work favorably for the artist. 13. Look for words like perpetuity because the intellectual property can belong to the brand if you don't negotiate it down. 14. Make sure you license it to them rather than them taking ownership of it. 15. Once you publish something online, you hold the copy-write to it. You need to give permission to someone else using your content, it could be copy write infringement. 16. It's easier to escalate as necessary rather than deescalate a situation. 17. Try reaching out to the brand directly first before reporting, this is where you can negotiate a paid relationship with them. 18. If you feel nervous about signing a contract, think of it as a way to protect both parties and to prevent miscommunication.

As attorneys, we understand the importance of making well-informed decisions regarding contracts but not everyone knows the true importance of having an attorney look over their contract. Do you question whether it's prudent to seek legal counsel before signing on the dotted line? Perhaps you're concerned about the potential costs associated with consulting an attorney? Let us assure you that these are common concerns, but they need not hold you back. On the contrary, we strongly advocate seeking counsel before committing to any contractual agreement. Doing so can prove invaluable in safeguarding your interests and minimizing future complications.

A contract is more than a piece of paper. Business contracts can protect your business and personal assets but must be executed properly to be effective. Contracts voice the terms and clauses of an agreement between two or more parties and can be the defining line of who owns what and what business rights are in motion. Short summary: contracts are IMPORTANT. Every person involved in a business transaction should know what they're signing, why they're signing, and what is in effect after they sign.

During the 11/11 sale, you can get the SYBB for only $777 (the lowest price it will EVER be, at least until next year on 11/11!) To put that in perspective: If you purchased each contract from a law firm >> the price would be $1000+ each If you purchased each contract separately >> the total would come to $3500 If you purchased the SYBB at full price >> it would be $1350 BUT FROM NOW UNTIL 11/13, YOU CAN GET THE SYBB FOR ONLY $777 (use code "1111" at checkout) Not interested in the SYBB?

Contracts can feel tedious, daunting, and even unnecessary. I'm here to tell you that contracts are so much more than that. They are designed to iron out confusion, set parameters for your consumers, and protect you from them. In this episode, I dive into a whole bunch of misconceptions and give you the clarity you're looking for. To start it all off, I define what actually makes a contract, which is essentially an agreement between two people or entities. Once we have the concept of contracts under wraps, I tuck into some of the advantages that come with them. For starters, it outlines the type of relationship you and your consumer can expect to have, as well as helping to forge consumer confidence. We can also use contracts as a “no man”, whereby you can put a limit on the consumer's demands. To find out more details on how you can make contracts work for you, be sure to join us today! Key Points From This Episode: Why contracts are the key to business owners realizing success. We define the architecture of a contract. Hear about the advantages of using contracts. We answer the question: who should be involved in drafting contracts. Find out how contracts work for us and our business. Contracts as a means of raising consumer confidence.  You can also use contracts as a “no man”.

With Guest: Tracy Bell When you stop and think about it for a second, as entrepreneurs we are ALWAYS pitching. We are pitching ourselves and our services, our products and offers, we are pitching partnerships, sponsorships, features, endorsement deals, we're pitching potential employers, new acquaintances, and in some cases we're even pitching for funding. Heck, as parents we're even pitching for less screen time and more vegetables every dang day! Safe to say having the ability to hone an effective pitch is a pretty essential tool in business and in life. If you aren't comfortable pitching yourself or your offer, it's time for you to start thinking about how to hone your inner confidence and step up so you can land the big gigs. And if you are comfy with pitching, maybe it's time to make sure your pitches are hitting the key points, because pitching with confidence, while cringe-worthy to some, can be the most impactful way to catapult your personal development and fast forward your business growth. And that's why my guest, Tracy Bell of Millenia Tea is here today to help you to perfect your pitch! In today's workshop we are getting down and dirty with crafting your pitch. We are digging in and getting specific on how to pitch strategically. We discuss things like how much information is too much information, what stories are important to tell, and we also talk about some of the biggest mistakes entrepreneurs make when artfully communicating their wares. Tracy is here to teach you how to cut the fluff and speak directly to the heart of the person you are pitching to. You guys, by the end of this episode, I'm pretty confident that you will be more ready than ever to hone your unique pitch and start locking in those dream deals for your business. You ready for that? In today’s episode, Tracy tells us about: How she became an accidental entrepreneur after a health scareHer behind the scenes experience on Dragons DenThe most important thing you need to understand before you pitch anything to anyoneThe key to a successful pitch (hint: it’s not what you might think)Tips for identifying TMI in a pitch. That compelling stories are essential for your pitch and how to hone yours.The anatomy of the perfect pitch.How to anticipate questions and answer them proactively.The common mistakes people make when making their pitch and how to avoid them.Tips for combating your nerves.The importance of attracting the FULL attention of a room while making your pitch and how to do it.The number one thing you need to be doing today, to ensure getting a YES after your pitch. When asked what is the ONE THING she wanted listeners to take away from this episode… Imagine that you are in the lobby of an office building or hotel and all of the sudden you spot someone you always wanted to talk to, maybe a famous person, maybe an advisor, someone who might be a mentor, someone you would love to talk to… They ask you what you do and you have 30 seconds to 1 minute to pitch. Decide today what you would say to answer the question of what you do, why they should care, and what you can say to get them to a place of wanting to learn more. Tracy Bell So there you have it, a few tips and tricks from one of our very own MASTER pitchers. Tracy really knows the strategies needed to ensure that your message gets heard, remembered, and that your pitch is responded to with a resounding YES! But the real secret here is that an effective business pitch takes time and research, dedication and work. You need to start with honing your inner confidence and you can never really have too much practice. Today. I hope you've truly heard Tracy's advice and trust that a passionate and energetic pitch goes a LONG way for the success that lies before you.

With Guest: Angie McPherson So often, starting a business can look like this: you have an idea, you conceptualize the idea, you validate the idea, which by the way means that now you're taking money and taking names, and you're excited! Then suddenly, somewhere along the way, you find yourself resembling a walking talking brochure constantly selling your offer, and this is how you build a business. But if building a brand is what you're here for, well then, that constant selling approach may not be the best one. A business can be defined as an organization that creates awareness and demand intended to sell a product, service or offer. But a brand is more than that. A brand is an image, a personality. Something to connect with. A brand makes you feel something. A brand is something you will remain emotionally connected to long before and long after making the decision to purchase. Building a brand means that you’re looking beyond the transaction to build trust, familiarity, rapport, and create meaningful connections with your fans, followers, and customers. And here’s the important part, if your feed only features what you have for sale, you're probably alienating anyone that isn't CURRENTLY ready to buy from you – and by the way, this is almost always the majority. And here's a common misconception: Often when we hear the word “brand” we immediately think of the visual components: logos, colors, fonts, and websites, but when you dig into what a brand truly is, it's more about the vision, the voice, and the personality behind the sales offer. And this is exactly what my new friend Angie McPherson is here to teach you about today. Angie is a branding photographer, marketing strategist, and hype-woman who spends her days helping entrepreneurs to elevate their personal brands, expand their reach and therefore grow their businesses. Angie works everyday to teach business owners the importance of showing their faces, telling their stories, offering value and truly connecting with their audience online rather than just showing up to sell. She believes that only showing up to sell your wares and hiding behind your work is a common mistake that entrepreneurs make, and today she is here to tell you why. I had so much fun chatting with Angie, our stories are freakishly similar, and I just know you are going to love her and learn so much from her today. I know I sure did. Are you ready? In today’s episode, Angie discuses: The decision to leave her day job as a marketing and PR specialist to follow her entrepreneurial dream as a branding photographer and personal marketing strategist.The relevance of building a brand rather than a business.Her ability to see her client’s progression based on their BEFORE: inconsistent photos, non-cohesive visuals, no calls to action, a lack of brand purpose, and values.The value of creating an intentional brand with intentional visuals, to effectively overhaul your brand.The importance of having consistent and fresh branding photos as well as understanding how often you should plan photoshoots for growing your personal brand.The number one thing you should be doing to build your personal brand and 5 questions you need to ask yourself before you get started.The fundamental difference between a branding photographer and a lifestyle photographer.Her three-step framework for overhauling your brand starting TODAY.The significance of showing your face, getting out from behind the camera, and not just capturing what you have for sale in your feed. You and your offer are a package deal!What a content plan is and how you can craft your ownThe definitions of brand building, value-add, and promotional content and how to check these boxes your business.The secret to remaining top of mind to your potential customers for when they are ready to buy (Truth: the majority are not ready to buy at the moment of contact)The key to knowing if your content is valuable to your (potential) customers.

When asked what is the one thing listeners could do to move the needle to create a more desirable personal brand, Angie had a very insightful recommendation: I would look inward to yourself and be clear and confident in who you are and how you can help people.Angie McPherson I just love Angie's message. When a true brand is built, it is built on a rock solid foundation of serving your people. And when you build your business on this foundation, it allows you to unapologetically sell what you have when the time comes because you've worked hard to not alienate those who are not immediately ready to buy what you have to sell. If you're building a business, you're showing up only for those who are ready to purchase. If you're building a brand, well then you're more focused on casting a wider net by building relationships through serving all people, even those who aren’t ready to buy, so that when the time comes to SELL, your audience is ready to hear that from you. I hope what Angie had to say in today's episode helped you to see the power in building a brand rather than a business, and I also hope her advice helped you to see how you can begin to do this in your own business. Because when you step out from behind what you have for sale with a desire to serve, a clear voice, and a genuine and recognizable personality, you will truly make a greater impact, reach a wider audience, and see the rewards!

With Guests: Nat and Cearagh of Marrow Marketing Sometimes in business and in life, we can find ourselves being innate people pleasers. We proceed by trying not to ruffle any feathers or rock any boats, while playing everything we do super safe, in order to convey our unwavering likability. And while pouring your awesomeness into the world is usually a good idea, sometimes we can get so lost in our attempt to gain acceptance, that we lose ourselves. We lose our voice, we lose our message, we lose our authenticity and we lose our essence. In the world of branding and marketing, trying to please everyone is not a good strategy. This is exactly why my friends Nat and Cearagh of Marrow Marketing are coming to you today with their message that your Brand is NOT for Everyone, and that is perfectly okay. In fact, creating a brand that will turn some people away is actually encouraged. And, Trust me, I know this probably sounds backwards. Cearagh and Nat want you to understand that there will always be haters. There will always be people that judge and reject what you are doing, and you need to get comfy with that if building a strong, stand out brand and loyal following is something that you strive for in your business. Nat and Cearagh are here to give you permission to let go of your need to be liked by everyone, so that you can show up in a way that serves your biggest fans while also making space for you and your brand to remain true to your core. In life and in entrepreneurship, you need to remind yourself that you are not capable of pleasing everyone. You are not nutella. So get ready to let go of all your people pleasing desires and let's dive into today's episode! In this Episode We Discuss: 1. How to Articulate the Value of Your Organization to Your Unique Audience Nat and Cearagh can help with their impressive array of workshops and courses – Marketing Lab, Content Camp, Love Video Connection and more! To speak to your audience, you need to know your audience. Lucky for us, Nat and Cearagh have us covered again with a fantastic Buyer Persona Template. Like those personality tests that you have already taken a million times only this one is practical and will make you money. One, two, FREE! Want to give you audience a gentle nudge and connect more online but a loss of how the hell (Nat and Cearaghs words, not mine) to do it? Try this free download of 10 Days of Social Posts. Take the time to do the work, find the customer that gets so much value from how you show up that, if you could replicate them (ethics aside), business would boom! 2. The Significance of Creating a Safe Community for Your Audience and How to Do it. When you put yourself out there, people will take notice and not everyone will be nice about it. Cearagh and Nat discuss the power of operating on the assumption that people will say mean things and how you can show up and be effective in this situation. Gone are the days of trolls staying under their bridges! 3. The Number One Way to Deal with Haters. Have a look at who is speaking out and what they are saying. Learn who they, which ones to actually listen to, and how to respond. Spoiler alert: not everyone’s critique has merit. Like, would you take flooring recommendations from someone who still proudly struts their stuff on shag carpet? 4. The Importance of Showing Your Scars, NOT Your Scabs. Okay, that sounds a little gross, but hear me out. Don’t just share deep hurt wounds with the world for the glory or attention it gives you, learn how to confidently and appropriately share your vulnerabilities and back it up with what you learned and how you overcame it. 5. The Power of Emotional Connection. Studies have found that you will outperform your competition by 86% if you can make an emotional connection with your audience. Everyone has a brand they have an emotional connection with and are happy to support – give them a chance to care about you. 6. The ONE THING You Need to Be Doing TODAY to Amp Up Your Own Brand. Cearagh shares with us the MOST important thing you need to do if you want to attract more raving fans to you and your brand online and offline. And, I gotta say, it’s a lot simpler than you probably think! Nat and Kiera bring so much energy and wisdom to the conversation that I feel like we could talk for days. I sincerely hope you learned from them today and that you are going to move forward knowing that you can't please everyone, and it is perfectly ok. In business, if you are always keeping your ideal client in mind, you will have the confidence to know what to say and when to say it, and be A-OK with the fact that some people aren’t going to like it. In fact, you can take comfort in knowing that when people who are not your ideal clients don’t like what you are doing, its a sign that you're probably doing it right. I hope you had as much fun listening as I did conversing with these two, and don't forget to head over to the shownotes at kellylawson.ca/018 to learn how you can connect with Nat and Kiera and join their programs.

Host: Whitly Jane When the world listens to women, it listens to white women. For far too long, Black women's voices have gone unheard, even though they've been using their voices loudly for centuries to enact change. Today, more than ever, it is NECESSARY that we create a unifying action to center Black women's lives, stories, and calls to action. We need to listen to Black women. These are the words of Rachel Cargle and this is why she created #ShareTheMicNow, so that Black women can speak from the accounts of white women. The intention of this movement is to magnify Black women and the important work that they're doing in order to catalyze the change that will only come when we truly hear each other's voices. And that's why this week's episode of the workshop weekly podcast is going to be a little different. Today I am handing the hosting seat and microphone over to my friend Whitly Jane. Whitly is the host of the Get Inspired Show, she is an Inspirational speaker and mentor. Whitly speaks to inspire others to take action in their lives and businesses. She is the creator of the Purpose Academy that guides women to step into their authentic power so they can create purpose driven businesses and leave their mark in the world. Whitly is a true leader with a mission to help others unleash their power, ignite their passion and live their purpose. When she isn't busy being a mom and everything in between, she's travelling to new places with her kids, spending time by the ocean and dreaming big! Today she is coming to you with her message about using your authentic power to hone your unique message, so that you can show up confidently and use your voice, even when it feels scary. I know that her words will leave you feeling empowered and inspired and I am so honoured to hand the reins over to her today. Here’s what she has in store for you: The greatest lesson she has learned and how she’s using that to share her message at this time.How you can shift your perspective and navigate your own message during this time so that you too can contribute to this great change without the fearShe talks about her painful experiences with judgment, racism, prejudice and how that led to an inability to love herselfHer personal struggle with the comparison game.The mindset shifts she needed to make to find her inner purpose.The significant of honing your Authentic Power and the role that EGO playsWhat is possible for you once you shift your own perspectiveHow to stop living your life on other people’s termsHer take on equality: we are more similar than we are differentThe ONE THING you need to do today to get closer to your authentic voice and honing your own authentic power so that. you can show up genuinely right now and join the fight for equality Whitly’s closing Words: So today, your simple yet profound piece of action I am giving you today is that you take some quiet and get real with yourself and write down what message is inside my heart and soul that keeps whispering to me that I have been afraid to share with the world? And I want you to share it with the people or the platform or the community that you feel most called to share it with.

The Impact of COVID-19 on Force Majeure Clauses in Business Contracts with Whitney Roy [NB 076]

Sheppard Mullin's Nota Bene

The world’s commerce has come to a screeching halt in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, many businesses are finding it difficult or maybe even impossible to perform their obligations under their business contracts. In this episode, we’re framing the various contractual performance issues that are currently implicated as the pandemic continues to impact contractual obligations. Joining me for this conversation is Whitney Roy. Whitney is a litigation partner in Sheppard Mullin’s Los Angeles office. Whitney was recognized by Law360 as a “Female Powerbroker” and by the Daily Journal as one of the Top 100 Women Lawyers in California in 2014. Whitney has experience in all aspects of California and federal civil procedure through trial. She also defends her clients on appeal when necessary. What We Discussed in This Episode: What are the various ways contracts are impacted by the coronavirus pandemic? What is force majeure and how does it show up in contracts? Is the current pandemic sufficient to implicate the force majeure clause? For contracts that include force majeure clauses, what is the next step in figuring out what a party’s duties are under the contract? If it’s impossible, impractical, or illegal to perform one’s duties under a contract, can a party simply walk away from their obligations? What can you do to salvage a potentially damaged contractual relationship? If for whatever reason, a party is unable to perform their duties under a contract, what steps must be taken by the party that won’t be able to perform? When is notice of nonperformance necessary? Why is it important for parties to maintain records and documents of all transactions and communications regarding business and contracts? Are force majeure provisions the same in every state? What happens with contracts that don’t include force majeure clauses? What is frustration of purpose and under what circumstances can it be invoked as a defense?

We share some business saving tips and tricks and strategies all around Business Contracts that you need to know that will help your business grow and run smoothly. When talking about Contracts, people generally use this as some sort of weaponry or an Insurance policy. When really it should be treated as a relationship that guides and helps both you and your customers to do the right thing. According to Tiffany, when Business owners know how to approach the conversation and then do it the right way, this will help your business grow rather than running into unforeseen risks. She added that, Devant had a mission to help businesses use the right contracts to help them build great value to their customers. It is so important that you are being transparent with your Contract to your customers so that both parties can set a proper expectation with one another. Other key topics we talked about are: Getting the best contract for your employees and how to protect yourself from others who try to poach your key staff. Termination of Contract by Clients. Do’s and Don’ts that you need to consider in setting up contracts. Contracts in terms of Cyber Security. Protecting your IP. ITS Quick Fire Round 1) If you were to 'bottle' one part of your business journey and sell it, what would that be and why? Having the courage with your convictions to say what you believe to be true. 2) What is your biggest learning/regret and advice to listeners when scaling their business?

How do you take your passion and your dream and make it a legitimate business? How do you “legally” make it a business? Today's episode we are continuing our series on creating a real, money-making business out of your passion. We are joined by Attorney Carley Windorff* as we discuss how to “get legit” with your business. Choosing a Business Name It all starts with a name. Who are you doing business as? Researching and choosing a correct name can help your brand and your business stand out. Choose a name that's unique enough that no one else has it (or at least doesn't have it in your state or country) and register it. LLC? Sole Proprietorship? S. Corp? These are the three most common options for choosing how to file your business. The biggest difference between them is the issue of limited liability protection. It's important to do your research and decide which is the best for you and your business. Contracts Matter Whatever type of business you are pursuing, it's important to have contracts in place if you are providing a service. This helps communicate clearly expectations each party has and lays out exactly what the transaction will be. Consult with an attorney to make sure your contracts are legally binding for your state. *Disclaimer: Your receipt of information from this podcast does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and Windorff Law.

The federal government is on a hot streak in meeting its small business contracting goals. The Small Business Administration said the government exceeded its small business contracting goal for the fifth year in a row. Eight agencies earned the highest score of A-plus, but there is still room for improvement. The SBA scorecard shows the government missed some contracting goals.

Business Contracts In Japan Aren't Worth The Paper They Are Written On   A friend of my mine has started his own consulting business recently and does Facebook Live updates to his growing band of devotees. I was watching one broadcast the other day when he was talking about always enforce the contract. He had signed a contract with his client, the situation changed and the client wanted to change the arrangement. Naturally, we are talking about the client paying less money than originally agreed. It was within the scope of the contract that the originally agreed money should be paid, because the changes fell outside the time limit for any alteration to the signed agreement.   My friend did relent and allow the buyer out of the contract, because he was told he would get looked after the next time. The person making this promise promptly left the company in short order and the replacement CEO brought in his own suppliers and my friend was out of pocket. Subsequently, his advice to his followers is always stick to what has been agreed and don't let the buyer off the hook for the money.   I was thinking about whether I would agree with that advice for Japan? Western society, particularly the American business world is very litigious and so contracts become the income source of the numerous law firms there ready and able to enforce the contract in a court of law. I signed a contract to supply training services with a foreign corporation, where to my astonishment in the fine print it said I would agree to forgo the settlement of any disputes in a court of law. I thought lawyers were smart, but whoever drafted that clause was on drugs. Should we have a dispute, I wondered, how will they handle it, if we don't agree? Pistols at 20 paces?   Japan is a country where domestic contracts are pretty much relative. If the buyer situation changes, then they expect the seller to recognise that and adjust the agreement accordingly. This usually means the seller getting less money or no money and having to wear it, to maintain the relationship with the buyer. Is everyone here in Japan ethical and won't take advantage of you? No. Of course some companies will use this loose arrangement to suit themselves and say “to hell with the seller's interests”. Of course Japanese companies who operate internationally are used to contracts being enforced, because they have deal with foreign entities who will go to court and so they have learnt to do the same thing.   If we take the big picture view, for the majority of cases, companies are ethical in Japan and they will not try and dud you for a short term gain. There is the problem of people moving around within the company every few years, as they rotate through the organisation. Your earlier flexible attitude may not be known to the new guy or gal and that creates a problem. Generally speaking though, Japanese companies are pretty good at doing handovers. Even if that vital piece of business intelligence was missed in the handover, the person you had the relationship with can usually be relied upon to reach out to their successor and put them in the picture.   My fear with my friend's advice is that if you take a Western legalistic approach, rather than a more holistic approach, you will get paid for that one deal but that will be the end of the relationship. Japan is a country full of obligations. Japanese business people see business as a partnership and requests for the seller to be flexible for the buyer, are part and parcel of that world. Now there are plenty of countries where you would never dream of providing that flexibility, because they will skin you alive at the first whiff of weakness. Japan isn't one of them.   The other side of Japan is you do get paid here. Yes, someone may not pay you at some stage in Japan, but it is very rare in mainstream business. Most terms of trade are thirty day payments and Japanese companies stick with that agreement. The slowest payers in Japan by the way are some of the biggest multi-national companies on the planet. These are major brands sticking it to the little guy because they can. You either take their 60 or 90 day terms or don't do business with them. I hate this approach.   If you are playing a long game in business and we should all be playing the long game in Japan, then my advice is to be flexible and preserve the relationships above being strict on the terms of the agreement. You might get caught, but the chances are slight and the risk on the other side of the ledger is much higher.   We talk about “buyer beware” but “seller beware” is also good advice. Judge the scope of the business potential over the long term. What we call the lifetime value of the buyer. If you see that some flexibility now will result in a continuous streams of orders, then it makes good business sense to agree to their requests.   I am dealing with a huge multi-national company's Japan team. They violated the terms of the agreement over cancelling scheduled, agreed training. I had every right to demand they pay, according to the agreement. I agreed to their request to overlook the penalty payment because I could see a lot more business coming our way. It has come, as we enter the second year of a lot of training being delivered for them. On the other hand, if it is a one off arrangement, then you may not need to be flexible. Instead, demand payment as per the agreement.   This is common sense in business and we have to judge each case by its own merits. This is important and we shouldn't be rigid and have only one response about “abide by the contract or else.” Japan is all about the long term and relationships built on trust. Keep that in mind next time the buyer wants to vary the agreement.   Engaged employees are self-motivated. The self-motivated are inspired. Inspired staff grow your business but are you inspiring them? We teach leaders and organisations how to inspire their people. Want to know how we do that?
