Your Legal BFF to your rescue

Wanna know about a secret weapon to boost your business?!

INTRODUCTION

Are your contracts causing unnecessary stress, and potentially slowing down sales?

What if I told you that your contracts don’t have to be awful? (yes, that’s totally possible….) 🤯

Believe it or not, no magical incantation comes with legalese. Shocker, I know, right?! ✨

So let's debunk this myth once and for all - your contract shouldn’t require a secret decoder ring to understand it.

It's time to bid adieu to those dull, out-of-style, grumpy, and one-size-fits-all contracts.

Say goodbye to those head-scratching, snooze-inducing, ill-fitting, and kinda mean contracts!

You've put your heart and soul into creating a fantastic customer experience. But your contract? It's more like a prickly cactus in a field of roses, spoiling what should be a seamless customer journey. 🌵

💫 There’s another way. 💫

 Then there's the pace of business and tech - it's like being on a super-speed roller coaster, leaving you wondering if your contract can still keep you safe. 🎢

Does this sound familiar at all?

And let's not forget the times when you're feeling on top of the world because your business has been booming. But that ramshackle contract you found on the internet is still hanging around. You're beyond ready for a sleeker, smoother contract that fits your business like a glove. 🌟

Or how about when your client asks you a question about your contract, and you're suddenly like a deer caught in the headlights? If you don't get it, how on earth can you explain it to them? 🤷🦌

Picture this: you're about to sign on a new client, but there's just one last thing to do - send over that pesky contract. The problem? You don't like your contract one bit. It's like an itchy too-tight dress. It doesn't reflect your current brand or cover a few things that have evolved in your business. 🙅

There’s another way.

It's time for legal contracts to be as friendly and as well fitting as your favorite lbd, protecting your business and looking as sleek as you!

Picture this, a contract that:

→ Wraps your business up in a safety blanket, even as things like AI change faster than you can say "technology.” 

→ Gets clients to sign on the dotted line quicker than ever because they understand every word and trust every phrase. ✍️

→ Shouts from the rooftops, "Hey, I'm a pro!" because every detail anticipates possible hiccups and smoothly guides past them. 

→ Is as unique as your business, reflecting your brand and covering all the must-haves without any don't-needs. ✨

What if you could get your hands on legal contracts that feel like a friendly handshake?

They'll protect your business, be tailor-made to sound like you and feel right for your brand.

Talk about a win-win, right?

ABOUT ANN

Your Lawyer & BUSINESS Bff

I’m Ann, and I’m a lawyer and a former management consultant (focused on tech strategy). I’ve worked for an international law firm, an international consulting firm, and the U.S. government. I also went to Berkeley Law and Georgetown. 

I’ve always wanted to be a writer, so I finally built my own blog during the pandemic. I soon fell in love with the online world.

After over a decade in the corporate world, I left to start my own law and digital strategy design firms. I’m marrying my interests in law, entrepreneurship, and design by building an online design business and this law firm.

As an entrepreneur, I know the struggles entrepreneurs, especially online entrepreneurs, face.

You'd be surprised how often I've stumbled upon contracts missing some key players, like limited liability (that's the part that keeps you safe even if your client's website isn't the next Google). 😮

But guess what? There's a brighter path ahead! ✨ 

Picture a contract that's as thorough as your favorite recipe, as easy-to-read as your morning paper, and tailor-made just for you. It's time to bring some much-needed TLC to your legal game!

By the end of working together, you will FEEL:

→ Gratified, knowing your business is legally bulletproof. 🛡️

→ Empowered with a trusted legal confidante who genuinely appreciates and comprehends your business. 🤝

→ Self-assured and confident that you've thoroughly explored and addressed your business' legal hurdles.💪

→ Relief, knowing your legal woes are no longer a one-woman show! We're on this journey together, working hand in hand to resolve these issues.😌

Let's jump on that call! Your peace of mind is just a phone call away! 🌟

WHAT TO EXPECT

THREE STEP CUSTOM CONTRACT PROCESS

  • Just drop me a line to schedule a chat here. We'll discuss your needs and determine if we're a match made in business heaven. 💬

  • Once we decide to team up, we'll map out the project scope, set our timeline, and you'll handle payment. 🥂

  • We'll dive headfirst into the project and will only stop once you're thrilled with the results. 🙌

What’s a new client worth?!💰

Custom Contracts could fill up your bank account with $$$ and save you sleepless nights of frustration and stress!

You could spend endless hours patchworking a contract together like a DIY project gone wrong. 🔨 

Or, you could keep using that old contract you stumbled upon in the internet's dark corners. 🕸️

But how do you know that your contract's got your back? Is it up-to-date, covering the latest twists and turns? 🤔

Sure, you could keep sweeping the contract talk under the rug. 🧹

But let's get real: what if you're letting money slip through your fingers or leaving your business open to risks? 💸

It's time to switch things up!

all the deets

It's time to think of contracts not as a chore but as a trusty tool that's got your back.

Investment starts at $2500 for custom contracts

Here’s what you’ll get with a custom contract:

  • A rock-solid contract that's like your business's own superhero, protecting you and your empire. 🦸

  • Friendlier client relations (who doesn't want that?) because you'll be able to chat about your policies, procedures, and expectations in a way that feels more like a cozy coffee date than a business meeting. ☕

  • Quicker sales (yes, please!) because your clients will trust you more, respect you for your uber-professional and thorough contract and love the smooth-as-butter customer experience you're serving up. 💰

  • Contracts that keep up with the times. As business and technology zoom forward, your contract will keep pace, ensuring you're always ready for what's next. 🚀

Okay, no secrets here, but our prices usually climb every January (yep, you can thank inflation for that). 

So, if you're all about snagging a deal (and who isn't?), plus you still want all that A+ service we're known for, don't wait! 

Jump on board now before those prices decide to reach for the stars.

Custom contracts might be your perfect match if:

  • Maybe your client took a half-year hiatus and wanted to jump back in right where you left off. Or, perhaps they asked you to do something that had you questioning your ethics (Yep, these are actual scenarios!). You need a contract that's ready for anything and everything, with solutions in place for those "did not see that coming" moments. 📝

  • You started with templates (hey, we all do!), but as your business has blossomed, you need contracts as unique as your brand, with specific provisions to work with your clients, vendors, and partners. 🖋️

  • You're a high-end brand offering a top-tier experience, which means you're well-compensated and have a healthy influx of referrals. The only issue? Your contract doesn't quite fit into the sleek experience you offer. As a result, your clients may even hesitate to sign on the dotted line. ✍️

  • You're ahead of the curve and had a lawyer draft a custom contract a few years ago. But time flies, and industries shift, and now you need a contract that's up-to-date with today's issues in your field. 📑

Custom contracts might not be your cup of tea if:

  • You've got a trusted legal advisor ready to tackle your legal queries and dilemmas.

  • Maybe your lawyer recently gave your contract a makeover, or they keep it updated regularly with all the proper clauses for your industry and business.

  • You haven't run into any legal woes because your business is on the safer side. You've just launched your venture, and right now, your priority is growing your business and attracting new clients.

  • Your contracts have grown and evolved right along with your business.

Questions?

  • Unless your contract was written recently by an attorney specifically for your business in the last year or so, your contract probably needs to be updated and thorough. For example, does your contract include language about how you can use AI to develop products for your clients or whether they can give you AI-produced content? Tech is changing quickly, and keeping your contracts updated is essential.

  • I would be happy to draft a contract for you even if you don’t live in the U.S. A contract's first and foremost benefit is to outline your business policies and procedures. So location is irrelevant to this process. However, I will collaborate on the contract with a lawyer with expertise in your country to ensure the contract accurately reflects your country’s laws. This service will be slightly more expensive as a result.

  • A custom contract is tailored specifically to your business needs and brand voice. A contract template is made for a specific industry that you can tailor yourself to your business.

  • No, we don’t charge by the hour because no one likes to be charged by the hour! Our services are flat fee - meaning we tell you exactly how much we charge and provide our best service regardless of how long the work will take. Investment for custom contracts starts at $5000.

  • Yes, we can work together regardless of where you live in the United States.

  • We accept payment via Stripe, making it secure and convenient for you to pay via credit card. The initial payment is due before our work together to secure your spot on our calendar.

  • We work with all industries and people! However, we especially love working with writers, authors, speakers, podcasters, coaches, consultants, course creators, and other creative and media entrepreneurs.

  • Powerhouse Legal Strategy is based in the beautiful San Francisco Bay Area. However, we serve clients around the U.S. thanks to Internet tools such as Zoom.

  • We primarily work on business formation and incorporation; contract creation and review; and copyright and trademark issues. Reach out to us to see if we can help with another legal issue.

  • No, I don’t draft privacy policies because those are very specific to geography, and privacy policies constantly change. I recommend Termaggedon as your source for privacy policies.

My clients are the best.

  • "Ann's legal advice is top-notch. She has a passion for understanding detailed legal issues, excellent communication skills, and a personal touch for understanding the nuances associated with the law and your personal needs."

    Joanne Rodrigues, Entrepreneur and Author

  • "Ann powerfully combines her innate empathy with strategic goal-setting, which has guided me in navigating conversations with people of different skill sets, values, backgrounds, and opinions. She has helped me find and develop my voice to effectively communicate in a diverse workplace and to a broader public."

    Carol Wang, Attorney

  • "I just want to thank you [Ann] again for all of the work you put into our negotiations! I feel like I'm in a better place because of our efforts."

    Alessandro Iyra, Engineer
