NY Events: Networking Party & Incorporation Seminar

[Tony Bacigalupo]

Hey guys,

Just FYI, Freelancers' Union is doing an extremely similar event as what we're doing for our next event: "Should I Incorporate?"

With one key difference -- theirs is $80 :-)

Gives us a nice idea of how we could offer ongoing classes for WAY less than what others charge as a part of NWCU.

also, it gives us an idea of what people will pay. I know our model is to help those who need the most help, but we have to value ourselves as well! 

[Tony Bacigalupo]

Yeah, and I think there's definitely a middle ground where it can be affordable to cash-strapped new entrepreneurs and still worth the trouble for us to run and for the teachers to teach.

FU is where the inspiration came from.

Their's is a multi-parter with an accountant and a lawyer.
