Sara Lee Knows When to Hold, Knows When to Fold

Sara Lee Knows When to Hold, Knows When to Fold

By Nina Kaufman, Esq.

According to a report this past Thursday at CNNMoney.com, Sara Lee is selling its stake in a Mexican joint venture to its joint venture partner.  Although reports are sketchy, reasons include “closer focus on core brands” and ” “ongoing efforts to streamline business.” That’s why a clear exit strategy — whatever the partnering relationship — is so important.  Your business objectives could change, your finances could change, the profitability of the venture could change.  All of these are valid reasons for needing to get out.  But you can’t do it quickly or elegantly (reports are that Sara Lee’s deal will close in about a month) without a written plan. You deserve to be paid, protected, and prosperous. Kaufman Business Law can help get you there. Watch this short video to find out how. Watch our Video

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.
