With over 20 years serving global organizations, JoAnn Holmes now oversees IP portfolios spanning 150 countries that have generated over $2 billion in annual revenue. And, she successfully negotiates contracts with respected enterprises like Disney, Microsoft, and Target.

Jo helps 7 and 8 figure companies grow recurring revenue through licensing brands, software, expertise and business content.  She founded her legal and strategic services firm – HOLMES@LAW –  in 2015, and later launched its companion podcast – Your Business Ally™.

• What are the 4 main types of Intellectual Property (IP)?
  • I am willing to bet you have way more than you knew you had!  Jo really breaks it down for us!
• Do you have to file paperwork to protect all your IP? Or is some of it "organically" protected?
• There is no one universal way to own a brand everywhere - so find out what some of your options are.
• What are the questions you should ask when selecting an attorney to help us walk through the unique situations of our business?
• Allow Jo to breakdown the IP that a consultant has, and how they can license that content!
  • This will really get you thinking about how you can make more money from the content that you already have by monetizing your Intellectual Property!
• How confident are you that YOU'RE not violating someone else's IP with the copy/photos you're using throughout your business? Jo raises some good points!
• A huge reason why you should have an attorney review the contracts your signing - especially with larger corporations! This stuff could really come back to bite you if/when you're ready to bring on an investor or sell your company - and even if you don't think that's a possibility now - you never REALLY know where your business will lead you... so you don't want to drop the ball now and have it negatively effect you later!
• Why "work for hire" is a red flag in ANY contract you're being asked to sign...
• There are a lot of expensive business mistakes you could be making... and you may be leaving money on the table as well... Jo is here to help with ALL of those issues!

Adam was working for IBM and was on the road so often that even his dog stopped recognizing him. Then, he transitioned to entrepreneurship, but quickly found that he was just as busy as an entrepreneur. There was a lot of physical - and emotional - distance between Adam and Kerry (and their son). Kerry started to feel resentful - it seemed like everything revolved around Adam's business. When Adam lost $2 million dollars, it sparked more issues at home - which translated into Adam spending more time on the business - and they found themselves in a vicious cycle.

• What was the breaking point that ignited Kerry to change how she was showing up - and how did that bring Adam around?
• The key to ensuring that your spouse/partner does not resent you for the decisions you make in your life/business.
• What do A.S.S.E.S have to do with the common pains faced by most entrepreneurial families!?
• The 3 C's (Chill, Communication, & Community) are found within each of the 4 P's (Person, People, Purpose, Profit)... allow Adam & Kerry to break down what this means and how you can leverage this strategy to find success in your business and life!
• The "family business meeting" strategy that Adam & Kerry have with each other, and how they involve the kids (ages 8 & 11) in the process!
