[Fredslist] If you have a professional practice or business or are thinking about starting one. Gotham Seminar

[Rick Raymond]

Dear Gothamites

Most new small businesses fail within their first 5 years or never  
reach their potential because of lack of organizational and fiscal  
planning.  Planning provides the framework to guide your actions and  
against which you assess results.  Without planning you are shooting  
in the dark with your business.

Learn about the three sides of the triangle upon which every business  
is built – the legal, the fiscal and the organizational strategies.   
Who should attend:  Independent  professionals, established small  
business owners struggling with growth, executives thinking about  
starting a business.  Open to non-gotham members too.
SPECIAL GOTHAM BROWN BAG SEMINAR.  From Business Card to Viability.   
You are finally starting your own business; and the first thing you do  
is to print business cards and hand them out to let people know who  
you are and what you do.  To build a viable business, however, one  
that operates consistently from the revenue it generates, you've got  
to pay attention to doing the right things the right way at the right  
time.  Gotham members, Rick Raymond, Richard Raymond Associates, a  
small business leadership and coaching firm, Chris Lamal, Lamal Law  
Office, a business law firm, and John Rudy, President, Beacon Business  
Consultants, a financial planning company for small businesses have  
joined their expertise to help entrepreneurs and executives who are  
looking to start a business. They will be discussing 8 critical  
considerations to creating a successful business.  Discussion and Q&A.  
TIME:  12:30-1:30 p.m. DATE:  Friday, October 16, 2009.  PLACE:   
Fred’s Office, Klein Zelman Rothermel, 485 Madison Avenue, 15th Flr
