So...let's address the elephant in the room (or rather the bat...)

It's fair to say if you aren't experiencing some sort of business disruptions today due to the Covid-19 pandemic, that you might experience other force majeure events that will throw a wrench into even the best of plans.

So -- what you are supposed to do or refund? And what is smart? Or legal? Or your obligation under the contract?

Let's dig into this episode and find out!

In the episode you will learn:

  • what does force majeure really mean and how does it affect your business contracts
  • what are the big MYTHS that need to be busted about what force majeure REALLY means
  • how you reschedule/add an addendum to a contract
  • how you cancel a contract
  • what other considerations or strategies you might want to use when doing right by your clients AND while keeping healthy business boundaries
  • some bonus info on the SBA/CARES loans and grants, including the PPP and the EIDL!
