Unlocking Hidden Value In Your Business w/ Corinne Whelan | #009


Listen Later

Have you ever considered how intellectual property (IP) can create additional revenue streams, wealth, or a saleable asset for your business? 

If not, then you're in luck because today, we're joined by Corinne Whelan, an IP lawyer, who will help you understand how to protect your IP, assign transferable value, and find hidden value in your business.

You might be surprised to learn that people often overlook different types of IP. Suppose you have documented systems, protected your brand name, and kept good records of your client list.

The benefit? You could add millions of dollars of value to your business...

And that's not all! We'll also discuss determining who owns what aspects of your IP as you scale up your business. It's something you want to leave until it's too late.

So, whether you're a startup or an established business, this podcast has something for everyone. As business owners, Gabi and I have been through the process of assigning our own IP, and we know how important it is. Trust us; you don't want to miss this episode.

See you on the inside!
