Your Business Foundation: First Things First

Your Business Foundation: First Things First

By Nina Kaufman, Esq.

After a couple of weeks of strategic planning, I’m once again ready to put first things first. Good thing, too, as the New Year is upon us. It was a conversation with Joyce Bone, Founder & COM (Chief Operating Mom) of MillionaireMoms.com, a few months ago that made me realize that I had gotten off track and allowed myself to be distracted by “bright shiny objects.”  You know, those tasks and ventures that seem like a great idea at the time, but after close inspection (and devoting some hard-earned resources), turned out to be tiniff (Yiddish for “overpriced junk”), fool’s gold.

Flying solo doesn’t have to mean going it alone.

I’m Nina Kaufman.

I know first-hand that running a knowledge-based service business has unique challenges. It’s so much easier when you have an advocate in your corner. Over the past 25 years, I’ve worked with thousands of New York business professionals who want a legal advisor to guide and support them as they navigate the business world.

With wide-ranging experience as a business attorney, strategist, and media authority, I bring the added power of a business lens to the legal issues my clients are facing.

And because I’ve been a business owner myself, I’ve lived through the soaring highs and devastating lows – like when my first law firm failed. So I understand what’s involved to serve great clients, detect business risks early and build a true legacy.

I can’t get those 12 years back. That’s why I have made it my mission to ensure that business professionals like you can become wise and discerning leaders, build a solid business, and live your best life.
