Melanie Cunningham is my guest on the podcast this week and she is a taking the mystery out of business law, intellectual property, and the relationship between personal branding and business law.  Melanie Cunningham’s intellectual property and estate planning practice focuses on helping small business owners have a peace of mind about the operation of their business today and plan for their futures.  Her approach to helping entrepreneurs achieve peace of mind involves establishing the foundation of their business, protecting their brand and assets, and safeguarding their legacy. She excels in making the law accessible, uncomplicated, and stress-free, for busy, and often overwhelmed, small business owners. We all want to find the success entrepreneurship promises, but many of us won’t see it because we don’t know how to protect ourselves and our products.  Melanie has a tremendous grasp on business law and during this interview she is dispelling many myth to help us get our house in order. There is no shame in admitting that you don’t know what you don’t know. Unfortunately, not knowing how to protect your business OR worse, loosing out because you didn’t formalize your idea by writing it down. Listen as Melanie makes significance points that emphasize the importance of setting and managing expectations when working with others.
