In this series, I share my biggest entrepreneurial lessons (and some curveballs) of the week. This week, I had a huge lesson in business development. This photo will make perfect sense once you’ve had a listen.
Let’s continue the convo in the Creative Genius Society group.
I had the pleasure of getting great advice from Patrice N. Perkins through a forum / webcast (#MentorMonday). Patrice’s passion, insight and expertise is inspiring and highly valuable. The advice she gives is immediately useful and practical.
I stumbled into my relationship with Patrice and Lifestyle Zen. Let me back up, I met Patrice before I knew she was a creative law wiz. She is a good friend of a good friend of mine which, by universal law, makes her cool but after she told me she was a creative law attorney I was floored. Six degrees of separation was more like two degrees of legal kismet. From day one Patrice showed as much interest in my venture, The Genius Syndicate (a learning-inspired lifestyle brand for kids), than I’d se… Read more
Talking it through with a lawyer and creative advocate like Patrice gave us confidence in our decisions. She pushed us to think about both our short-term and long-term needs and the legal implications of our business. The biggest results that we experienced were talking with a legal professional that understands what is important to creative businesses and receiving small business support beyond “legal services”. Not all lawyers are the same; Patrice is patient and genuinely vested in suppor… Read more
If you’re looking for an intellectual property attorney, Patrice Perkins should be consider. I’ve hired her on several occasions to negotiate win/win contracts. Her attention to detail, and grasp on the universe of potential issues were invaluable. She’ll get you the results you’re looking for, as well as other things you never considered. I highly recommend her to anyone who is negotiating a major deal.
Patrice presented at the Blogging While Brown Conference, and her workshop was the best, in my opinion. The information she gave about protecting your intellectual property as an online content creator was PRICELESS! She made it easy to understand, and I walked away feeling empowered with so much information. She’s clearly an expert in her field, and the impression she left had me eager to work with her!
I met Patrice Perkins on Paul Carrick Brunson’s inspirational webcast session, #MentorMonday. She is a lawyer who works with creative persons like myself to bring together the creativity and the law (as in protecting their rights, etc.). Patrice was very knowledgeable on the webcast and inspiring. Her website is phenomenal and inspiring as well. She is definitely someone I plan to work with in the near future.
Patrice was so informative, motivating and inspiring on Paul Carrick Brunson’s most recent #MentorMonday webcast. She provided invaluable legal and practical insight on transforming your hobby into a brand. She is a great resource for any entrepreneur dreaming of making their dream come alive as their reality. Patrice is a breath of fresh air!
Simply put: Patrice is a GREAT attorney for creative entrepreneurs! I’ve already had my initial consultation. She put all of my business plans into one fantastic package…in one hour. And I’m very excited about getting started. Recently, I attended the Chicago Artists’ Coalition’s 20/20 Legal workshop. Patrice’s “10 Quick + Dirty Legal Tips for Creative Entrepreneurs: Negotiating Contracts, Intellectual Property and a Little Social Media in Between” presentation was phenomenal. I love how she s… Read more
Patrice is a well rounded attorney who understands the issues related to individuals in the creative field. Her “work hard, work smart” approach to business practices makes her the go-to-person for the creative industry. In her workshops, Patrice explains the law in a way that it makes sense and it is easy to understand.
Patrice has served as my attorney since late last year. As a new business owner, Patrice literally walked me through the steps of properly organizing the legal side of my enterprise, as well as preparing contracts and protecting my brand and blog. I highly recommend her to creative entrepreneurs like myself who are ready to take their businesses to the next level. You cannot afford to miss out on her services.
