Speaking

Like all podcasters, I love the sound of my own voice.  Well not really, but I do love speaking to and educating groups both big and small.  Some things I like to talk about:

Copyright in the business and online community.

I ran an educational publishing company for a decade, and can speak to your group or organization about copyright issues and how to avoid violating copyright law.  This is a very broad subject so I focus my talks on the specific areas that affect the audience I am speaking to. This subject is of great interest to educators, internet entrepreneurs, bloggers, and anyone who wants to use other people’s intellectual property without stealing it.

Starting A Business

From technical, How-to topics to mindset and how starting a business will impact your family life, I love to talk about starting a business.  Of course if you’re here reading this, you know that already.
