"The Business of Getting Paid"

This month's meeting was at The Poynter Institute in St. Petersburg. We networked, took a tour, had some great snacks and then Steve Brown started the meeting

A special thanks to the Poynter Institute for hostting our meeting and for the excellent tour of the facility. This is truly a "state-of-the-art" media and educational facility with touch control in all media rooms and the finest equipment available for hands on training (Macintosh of course).

Bill Yanger of William L. Yanger, P.A. presented an excellent program, discussing examples of invoices, proposals and contracts provided by MPFI members. Bill's professional expertise in the entertainment industry addressed a number of issues. One of his main points of emphasis was to "Always get it in writing." And get as much in writing as you can. Everyone who participated in this meeting received the benefit of a legal seminar with a value well over $50. And that is the cost for an entire year's membership with professional development meetings each month!!!

Bill went into detail in explaining ways we can protect ourselves and business while providing clients the best visual products we can. For more information contact Bill Yanger by e-mail at bill.yanger@yangerlaw.com or at his website, http://www.yangerlaw.com.
