Don't Wait Until It's Too Late

Many consultants and freelancers think that the “legal stuff” comes in once you agree to work with a client.

Because that’s when you sign a client services agreement, right?

But the truth is, you should be thinking about your legal protections waaaaay before you agree to work with a client . . . 

In fact, even before you walk into a pitch meeting!

Because meetings with potential clients often involve sharing valuable, protectable information . . .

Information that you would not want the potential client disclosing or using for themselves without paying you!

And that’s when nondisclosure agreements, or NDAs, come into play.

NDAs are a kind of agreement about how confidential information will be treated and used.

And if you plan on sharing any kind of sensitive information, you should have one ready before you meet with a potential client!

If your potential client is concerned about confidentiality, too, they may have an NDA form of their own . . .

But that means you’ll have to spend time and energy reviewing their form or hire a lawyer to do it for you . . 

I’m guessing you want to avoid that, right?

That's why it's crucial to have YOUR NDA ready to go.

You'll know exactly what it says, so you can be 100% confident your information is properly protected.

Plus, you can hand it over quickly and look like a total pro.
