Tuesday March 8, 2010 7:00pm - 9:00pm

As a business owner, you deal with contracts all the time, and sometimes they're in writing.  What terms should your contract contain? What should they not?  Veronica will explain how you can minimize contractual confusion and, in the process, nurture a clear  communications relationship with your customers.
