Build Black Show | Business Growth & Entrepreneurship

Show Notes

You built the company — but have you actually protected your ownership of it?

Attorney Scherrie L. Prince joins The Build Black Show to reveal overlooked business structure and operational red flags that can put entrepreneurs, their assets and even control of their companies at risk.

In this episode, we examine the legal side of entrepreneurship that many small business owners don't think about until there's already a problem.

Scherrie discusses business structures, LLCs, partnerships, ownership agreements, contracts, intellectual property, asset protection and the operational decisions that can create unexpected vulnerabilities inside a growing company.

What happens when business partners disagree? Does forming an LLC automatically protect you? Are your ownership documents and agreements actually protecting what you think they are? And could the way you're operating your company create problems later?

This episode is essential listening for entrepreneurs, founders and small business owners who aren't just trying to start a business — but want to build, protect and retain ownership of something valuable.

Episode 24 of The Build Black Show explores an important side of wealth building that doesn't get talked about enough:

It's not enough to build it.

You need to know how to protect it.
