Legally protecting your content and intellectual property is important stuff
Attention all entrepreneurs: There’s a new law in town that’s a game-changer for your business… and you need to know about.
Trust me when I say that this law is going to make your life a whole lot easier. And because I’m always on a mission to help you simplify your business, I invited an expert on to talk about this law (and so much more)!
Ashley Kirkwood is a lawyer by trade with an impressive history of working for many prestigious law firms. She’s also an author, has been featured in many national media outlets, and runs a nonprofit with her husband. (She’s kind of a big deal.)
In today’s episode, Ashley is going to share all that you need to know, step-by-step (a girl after my own heart), about this game-changing law.
She’ll also talk about…
- What every creator should do before launching
- What to do if you realize you’re infringing on someone else’s work
- Keeping your Facebook group legal
And so much more!
Here’s a look at important legal points to know as an entrepreneur

- [25:31] We talk through the safest way to use other people's content to avoid consequences.
