    Jul 23 2024
    “We're being bombarded all day with so much content and noise. “Please, please. I need your attention here, here, here.” You really have to learn to think about who's listening. Really ask yourself, what is the takeaway for the person listening? Why does that matter? And if you can't think of that, then you don't need to talk about it.” Patrice Poltzer is a storytelling and personal brand expert and the founder of Patrice Poltzer Creative, with more than a decade of experience transforming stories into engaging video content for top media and social platforms. An award-winning journalist and former Emmy-nominated Today Show producer, Patrice founded her agency in 2016.

Her mission is to empower brands by harnessing the power of storytelling to enhance their impact, foster deeper audience connections, and drive increased sales and awareness through expertly produced video content.

  • How to Avoid Legal Challenges with Lauren Bercuson from Storylock Legal
    Jul 16 2024
    “In the beginning, if you don't have a team or a system or community around you, it's very easy to feel lost. There are these amazing communities out there for amazing female founders that will really help guide and support you. So, the greatest lesson I learned pretty quickly was that you're never alone. Or, if you feel alone, there are ways to get out of that.” When trademark attorney Lauren Bercuson began the process of founding her own boutique firm, she quickly learned just how lonely and intimidating the process could be. Now, Lauren is the founder of Storylock Legal where she helps entrepreneurs navigate the complexities of intellectual property. At Storylock Legal, Lauren uses her unique blend of legal expertise and creative talent as the foundation of her company. Her dedication to providing honest, ethical guidance and personalized attention has helped her build strong relationships with a diverse clientele from startup business owners to creatives of all kinds. Tune in and hear how Lauren balances being an Entreprenista with family life, the power of joining a community of founders, and her early lessons on founding her own firm. What we talk about: The difference between a trademark and copyright (04:30) Knowing when the right time is to file a trademark or copyright (07:22) As an entrepreneur, you're never alone… even if it feels that way (10:57) Lauren’s children’s book reviews (15:18) The power of the community you can find in a book club (21:23) The resources Lauren offers for budding Entreprenistas (23:31) Connect with Lauren: Storylock Legal Instagram LinkedIn Happily Ever Elephants on Instagram Members of our Entreprenista League get access to live Office Hours with top founders that have been on our show!
