Shooting Yourself in the Foot in Business

By Jason Holland | 08/26/2008

I hadn’t read that particular letter, but I was familiar with the subject. Readers, as well as customers who attend our conferences, ask Michael and other ETR experts this type of thing all the time: How can they patent their invention (which is “going to change the world as we know it”), copyright their e-book, password-protect their website, trademark their business name, and so on.

By John Carlton | 08/21/2008

Has the looming recession got you scared yet?
