Protect and Grow Your Brand - The Hart Law Firm, P.A.

Team Subkit -

Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with James Hart, owner of The Hart Law Firm, P.A., located in Raleigh, NC, USA.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

I am a trademark attorney and online business coach. I work with online entrepreneurs to help them start, build, grow and legally protect their online businesses.

Tell us about yourself

I've run my own law firm since 2005. Very early on, I realized how much I enjoyed marketing and working on the business. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the legal work as well, but what really gets me jazzed is building systems and seeing how what I've built has had a positive impact on my students and clients.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

Aside from supporting myself and my family as an entrepreneur for the past 17 years (most entrepreneurs quit or fail within five years), I've reached almost 150,000 subscribers and 5.8 million lifetime views on my YouTube channel, which has helped so many people start and protect their own entrepreneurial ventures.

What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?

The bad months. It's not all good - and one of my biggest challenges is trying to smooth out the revenue. But I haven't cracked that nut just yet, so getting used to the ups and downs of business is an absolute necessity.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

  1. Just start - You will never make it unless you get going.
  2. Put out content. Nobody will find you unless you start publishing. Whether it be blog posts, a podcast, or videos, you have to publish.
  3. Don't give up. It's not going to be easy - but this is a marathon, not a sprint. Just keep going, and you will be amazed at what you can accomplish.
