Unlocking the Hidden Value in Your Business: The Power of Intellectual Property

Send us Fan MailA podcast from my webinar with Juan Perez, IP lawyer with Quest Legal in Perth, Western Australia.For most small businesses with profits under $500,000 dollars, the industry standard for values is to use an adjusted maintainable net profit for a single owner-operator. However, sometimes there is "hidden value" in a business in the form of intellectual property (IP).Intellectual property (IP) in a business refers to any original creation of the mind, such as inventions, literary and artistic works, designs, and symbols used in commerce. It is a valuable asset that provides businesses with a competitive advantage over others. Intellectual property can be legally protected through patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets.Sometimes, IP can help a business sell, increase its value and allow the owner to scale up through licensing or franchising.Juan Perez is the founder and principal lawyer at Quest Legal in Perth. Jaun's background and expertise is in brand protection, intellectual property, IT, finance and commercial law. He assists businesses with finance operations, product management, transformational change and risk minimisation.Download the handouts referred to in this EpisodeThe Power Of Intellectual Property - IP ChecklistThe Power Of Intellectual Property - Summary of key IP TypesAs mentioned in the episode, if you'd like to get your business saleability score and tips on how to make your business more saleable and attractive to buyers, go to this link My Business Saleability Score Go here to VISIT MY WEBSITE for more episodes and informationGet your business saleability score and tips to Boost Your Business Value & Saleability Today with This Quick Free Online AssessmentSchedule a no-obligation chat about your business - BOOK HEREThanks for listening, keep podcasting and subscribe to get new episodes!
