Ep 4040 | Who Actually Owns What You Create?
You might think that because you created your training… you own it. But legally, that’s not always true. In this episode, Cory shares a real client story where a studio owner lost control of their own training materials—simply because there was no signed agreement. Why This MattersIf you collaborate with someone and don’t have a contract in place, the law may automatically give them ownership rights—even in your own business. Key Takeaways✔️ If two people create something together, they both own it (by default)✔️ No contract = shared ownership and shared control✔️ This can lead to disputes, revenue splits, and loss of control✔️ A work-for-hire or licensing agreement protects your ownership Cory’s Legal Pro Tip📄 “If someone helps you create it and there’s no contract—legally, they own part of it too.” 🎧 Want to make sure you actually own what you’re building?
