Scenario:
You've met an entrepreneur at an industry conference/trade show and collected her business card, promising to follow up on return to your office. As an entrepreneur, you know she will have cost concerns, timing issues (it's a small business, and she is pulled in many directions), and potential liability concerns. Your advertising agency is new in this area, and you are building your business/clientele also.
