Update and review your business information, contracts, and health and safety standards.
Review and Update Contracts
What are business contracts?
Business contracts are legally binding agreements with vendors, clients, or partners that outline terms for services or products.
Why does it matter?
Outdated contracts may no longer be legally binding or advantageous to your business. Regular reviews help avoid disputes and keep agreements clear.
How can I update them?
Annually review contracts for changes in terms, prices, or service levels. Work with a legal advisor to ensure compliance with new laws or changing business needs.
Conduct Health and Safety Inspections
What are health and safety inspections?
Health and safety inspections ensure your business complies with regulations for workplace safety, especially in food services or industries handling hazardous materials.
Why does it matter?
Failing to meet health and safety standards can result in fines, business closures, or health hazards to customers and employees.
How can I pass inspections?
Schedule regular inspections through Startup Springs’ health department and implement corrective measures as needed. Keep a log of health and safety procedures to stay prepared.
Track License and Permit Renewals
What are license and permit renewals?
Renewals ensure your business's operational permits and licenses stay valid, allowing you to continue legal operations.
Why does it matter?
Failing to renew licenses and permits on time can lead to fines, interruptions in business, or loss of operating rights.
How can I track renewals?
Create a calendar or use software to track renewal dates for all licenses and permits. Set reminders ahead of deadlines, and submit renewal applications on the City's website early to avoid disruptions.
