7 Great Reasons to sort out your Standard Terms of Business

Hello everyone – You’ve asked us to provide simple, factual information about legal issues which could affect your business and what to do about them. It’s coming to the end of the year so let’s be thinking about how to  clean and freshen up all things commercial in your business ready for 2017.

One of the most important things a business should do to protect itself and its brand is to have a robust standard Terms of Business which it uses for its day-to-day trading activity.

Yet so many business owners still procrastinate and put this off. Or use something which they have downloaded off the internet or “borrowed” from elsewhere. Please…don’t do this. Take your business seriously and send a message to your customers and suppliers that you mean business.

In this Vlog we’ll give you 7 Reasons why this is important and hope it convinces you! Within our new Serenwood Business Club we are even providing standard form templates which you can then tailor and bespoke yourself – and an unbelievably affordable price. No excuses now.

For those of you who don’t like vlogs, let’s cut to the chase…

1. Protect your income – get paid on time and what you can do to chase debts
2. Create clarity through clear boundaries, expectations, roles
3. Great customer service – build the trust factor and reassure clients that you are taking business seriously
4. Minimise the chance of future disputes – saving you time, money & reputation
5. All important matters are covered for you – even the things you don’t even know you’re meant to be thinking about!
6. Getting it in writing vastly improves the chances of being legally enforceable
7. Stay on the right side of the law – an expertly drafted Terms of Business will include all the current things you need to comply with laws around trading.

So there we are.

Let’s get it sorted!
