The Top 5 Legal Issues

Impacting Remodelers in 2009/10!
(And How They Will Affect Your Bottom Line)

Do you have your 'legal ducks' in a row?

More importantly, do you even know what your legal ducks are? This year (and 2010) is bringing in some very significant legal issues and changes for remodelers and home improvement companies. Understanding them is critical and just could make a huge contribution to your company’s success in the coming years!

To help bring you and your staff up to speed on these important issues, we’ve dedicated this month’s Training Tuesday’s session to give you all the details necessary to take full advantage getting your company positioned properly. Our guest speaker is D.S. Berenson, the home improvement industry’s leading legal advisor.

Legal Knowledge = Sales/Marketing Advantage

In this webinar, you’ll not only discover what the most pressing legal issues for remodelers are...

You’ll also get a ton of ideas of how you can use this knowledge as a huge “marketing plus” for your company!

Here's Just Some Of What You’ll discover…

What to be aware of regarding the proper promotion of the new energy tax credits (some things just might get you in trouble)
What you can and cannot do with your phone in following up on home show and/or sweepstakes leads
How to protect yourself and AVOID employment lawsuits
What bases you need to have covered on your contracts and paperwork (simple things to help avoid disasters)
Details on new upcoming rules regarding worker reclassifications (lack of understand here could cost you your business)
How you can leverage your legal compliance in your sales and marketing efforts and eliminate your competition
Much more!

Special Guest: We’ll also hear from Paul E. Toub, Vice President, Marketing Kachina Contractor Solutions with detailed information regarding some new Lead Paint regulations (you’re probably already breaking the law which could cost you $37,500 per violation!)
