How To Protect Your Business
2
With a business strategy, product, original idea
and logo, you will be all decked to set your
proverbial mark in the business world. With a
growth in business, pitching the company in the
marketing world becomes important. The search for
investors, client and even employees means that a
large amount of information will have to be laid
threadbare. Putting out certain information means
that the risk of idea theft increases. When an
idea is snatched, the business comes to a
standstill, leaving little room for discourse.
While idea theft is a risk not many are willing
to take for the slander it will cause, it is
still advisable to protect your business against
potential risks. Dont let the dam break While
it sometimes feel like that talking anything and
everything under the sun about your business,
helps in your pitch, in reality, it is best to
reveal only what is necessary. Convey the
information necessary to the idea. An overview of
the product along with its practical use is
usually enough to lure investors and clients. In
your excitement, dont blabber about things which
might implicate your company product and
reputation.

Non-Disclosure Agreements A non-disclosure
agreement more often than not comes to your
rescue at crucial times. But it needs to be kept
in mind that not many investors and clients would
be willing to sign a NDA. In such instances, it
is advisable to print a confidentiality statement
in your business plan. This helps protect your
business idea from potential poaching. Copyright
and Trademarks At a time when you are still
processing and shaping your idea, it is advisable
to apply for a provisional copyright protection.
Along with a copyright, a trademark can provide
an additional layer of protection. This is
because the companys name is tied to the
business idea. A trademark protects you in case
of a legal issue for it provides a written proof
that your business idea was in the work at the
specified time.

Business Insurance Liability insurance is
usually a pre-requisite for business, along with
professional liability insurance for companies
engaged in providing advice to customers. The
business insurance makes certain that your
company will not shut down due to catastrophic
loss. The amount of your insurance will depend
upon the industry, business structure and the
asset amount of your business. Business
Data Using cloud storage and sharing to back up
the company data will go a long way to safeguard
and provide access to your files from anywhere.
Cloud storage ensures that there are no worries
about loss of data due to crashed hard drive.
Adopting appropriate cyber security measures
protects the company information from being
leaked due to hacking etc. Accountant and
Attorney A lawyer versed in the commercial
aspects usually advises you regarding business
related issues. A business attorney can either be
a transactional lawyer who deals with the legal
documents of the company. Or even a contentious
lawyer who resolves disputes with third parties.

The financial performance of a company is
reviewed through the accounts maintained by an
accountant. An accountant is usually versed in
management accounting-to keep your business
running and financial accounting to tell you how
well is the business being run. As much companies
want to protect their business and products,
filing the required documents for patents,
trademarks, litigations, are extremely time
consuming. Moreover, a simple mistake in a
document might lead to a different sort of hassle
and a need to redo everything. Harangued by
