“So that day I decided I'm going to start a company. Had I known how difficult it is... I mean, but then, that naivety is essential. You've got to just take the plunge and then you'll figure it out.”Entrepreneurship is like running a marathon through a minefield, blindfolded, and our guest managed to cross the finish line with style. Born in the Congo, AJ's family faced adversity straight out of a Hollywood drama. They fled the country, lost everything, and landed in Canada with nothing but their grit. Fast-forward, AJ built a multimillion-dollar SaaS company, all while proving that persistence isn't just a virtue—it's a business model. Along the way, he learned what's truly important: adaptability, taking risks (even sweeping floors for free), and creating value by solving real-world problems. This is a story of rejection, reinvention, and relentless optimism.Alikhan "AJ" Jetha is a software visionary and cofounder of Marketcircle, a leading SaaS company providing tools like ‘Daylite' to empower small businesses with effortless customer, sales and project management. Born in the Congo and displaced as a child, AJ's entrepreneurial path has been shaped by his unique experiences, relentless determination, and passion for enabling small businesses to thrive.Learn more and connect:https://www.marketcircle.com/Expert Action Steps Believe in yourself and address doubts holding you back.

Yesterday I spoke about being able to work when you're offline, when you don't have an internet connection, because I was on holiday, a lot of people that are on holiday and they can't always work without the internet. Things like Google Drive and Dropbox, stuff like that.And actually the other one is Pipedrive, which is a CRM. Most of the CRM tools are actually online. They're in the browser and they work great, but being a MacJunky, I'm like, wait, wait a minute. I've got a fantastic computer here that works offline with all the apps that I need. Why do I need online services?Now, there are many people that would need online services if you're working in teams and so on. So it's a different setting, but there's a difference between. As I said yesterday, working from home, working remotely, or being remote and having to work, so effectively, like a digital nomad.And people like me who like going traveling, this is what I spoke about yesterday. We kind of need to be able to work without the internet connection. Right.So, again, for the past three weeks, I've visited an old friend as the title of the video. And this app is a lot better than I thought, and that became a thing while I was away. And I didn't realize that it would be annoying not to have an internet connection with the apps and tools that I was using.So for the past three weeks before I went away, I thought, let me try this out. And it was working, but the fact that I could work on my projects with my client information offline was a huge change. A huge thing. That app is called Daylite. Now I've known Daylite for many, many years, probably 15, 16 years.And I've had a love, hate relationship with it, and I've been using it and not using it. And I have clients that actually use Daylite and I've used it for many years. And Daylite is one of those apps, if you are a consultant or a coach working on your own. It's one of those apps that kind of gets overseen or over glossed, because it's so complicated or it's an old school app.Well, it's not an old school app it's just an app that's been around for a very long time. The latest version, which is, I think we're on 6.5. When version 6 hit it was a game changer for the app and the industry.And they've been one of the originators of these apps they went over to the cloud because then you can sync with your teammates and stuff, but you can actually work remotely without an internet connection, work on your projects, work on your opportunities and things like that.So it's basically an all in one app that does everything for you, calendar notes, tasks, etc.. In the past, I've said an app that does everything, doesn't do one individual thing correctly. And I kind of stick by that. However, it doesn't mean that you have to use every single part of an app because it does... this app actually does everything that I need without having to go to loads of other apps and services.And specifically, mainly because I do want to work remotely and I do work remotely now. I can work from anywhere without having an internet connection and it works. And again, I've had a love, hate relationship with it because in the past there have been apps like Basecamp that I love and I use and I consult on, but that's like a project management tool. More so than like a CRM office type, have everything in one place type app, like Daylite is.And it works fantastically with the Mac because it's an, it's a Mac centric an Apple centric. Application. So it works on your iPhone, iPad, Mac, etc. So it might be worth if you are a consultant and a coach, it might be worth having a look at that because it could probably really simplify everything that you need to do in your business. It works really, really well. And it connects to your apple mail.Anyway, if you have any questions about that, let me know below there'll be a comment thing down below, or just send me an email through the contact button above. Anyway, have a great day. And I'll see you in the next one. Ciao.Check out Daylite here: https://macjunky.link/daylite★ Support this podcast ★

Marketcircle is developer of small business software for the Mac, iPhone and iPad including the client relations management program Daylite*. I am super excited to have AJ on as a guest as I use Daylite in my law practice.

Q1 - What are three ways Daylite differs from other cloud-based CRMs? Q2 - What are three ways Daylite integrates with Apple-based programs for the benefits of the user? Q3 - What are three third-party integrations you can use with Daylite? Q3+ - What are three ways Daylite is looking forward to the future; what should users expect from their CRMs in the future?

Topics: Sam gives a shoutout to Armin Briegel of Scripting OS X for solving a huge problem he was having. If you're not subscribing to his site, you should be.

One of Sam's old difficult clients who he had not talked to in years reached out to him for help. He was not sure how to respond.

Daylite is an excellent tool for documenting this information and attaching to a client record. Sam tried to part ways with a client that was very time consuming but he didn't have the heart. Joe shares a tip on setting up hot corners because even though they've been useful, they also drive him crazy.

When your system can’t keep up with you it can cause you to be unproductive because you end up wasting time on things and switching tasks. Sam tells a story about how one of his client’s old systems finally kicked the bucket and he had to get all of their data back. Tip: Update your software about every 2 to 3 years. You end up paying less to keep up with updates than to fix everything when it goes wrong. Joe actually had to buy floppy disks for a job he had to do on a Powerbook 100. Jerry shares two useful tools he uses: Smith.ai and a helpful calendar app called Harmonizely. Harmonizely allow clients to schedule appointments and offers direct integration with Daylite.. Daylight training has been transformative for Jerry. Sam can’t bring himself to start offering calendaring services to his clients. One reason is a need for control. Joe also talks about showing just how unavailable you might be. Jerry talks about the mysterious “alien arrow” that one of Joe’s clients has been telling him about. What is Casper Sky??

Tim consults to leaders and organizations on how to use Zoom effectively and recently launched a new course: Leading Effective Zoom Events. In this conversation, Tim and I overview some of the common mistakes of online events, how online can produce even better results than in-person, and ways to engage people quickly. Plus, we review some of the key technology that will support your organization’s outreach efforts. Key Points It’s often a mistake to assume that you’ll be able to lead online events with the same planning and design for in-person events. Opening a meeting early and using the five-minute rule to begin with icebreakers, breakouts, polls, or reactions will help engage people in the event quickly. For events with many people or higher visibility for your organization, have a dedicated technology co-pilot so that hosts and speakers can stay focused on being present. Virtual lounges (with a dedicated host), spotlight and multi-spotlight, practice sessions, and preassigned breakouts can all help the technology disappear and the human connections to take center stage. Some organizations are discovering they are more successful with online events than past in-person ones. Many have had such a positive experience that they plan to continue leveraging virtual events after the pandemic.

The tables are turned on your blogger/podcaster! For this biweekly podcast drop, I'm referring the TSL.P listeners to my guest appearance on Brett Burney's Apps in the Law Podcast!!!. Recall, Brett was a previous guest on TSL.P Podcast. I was honored to return the favor and appear on Brett's podcast. Brett and I discuss my office computer set up: We talk about my workflows dealing with client intake and monitoring (through Daylite), dealing with client file automation (automatically OCRing new electronic files and then automatically filing these documents in their proper folders), remotely logging in to my office computer when I'm on the road, and other "fun" stuff! Happy Lawyering!!!
My guest today is Michael D. J. Eisenberg from the Law Office of Michael D. J. Eisenberg out of Washington D.C. where he advocates for veterans, military members, and federal employees. In addition to his successful practice, Michael also has a passion for talking about technology for legal professionals, and runs the Tech Savvy Lawyer website and podcast which you can find some great episodes with David Sparks, Judge Herbert Dixon, etc. Michael covers a whirlwind of the apps and processes he uses to manage his practice, access his files, and stay on top of his appointments. If you’re a Mac-using attorney, you will definitely take something away from this episode!

Following a question about apps for time and project management, Bernhard Kerres delves into more project management considerations. The right process comes before the tools.

Margot Roberts is a solo practitioner who focuses on guardianship law – and I'll admit that, after filing a petition for guardianship, I wasn't really sure what the practice area entailed. So, this was an extremely enlightening conversation for me, in regards to what guardianship law is all about and how a solo practitioner can build a successful practice, and I hope you learn as much as I did.

Molly McGrath is the CEO and founder of Hiring & Empowering Solutions, a company that takes a very unique approach to answering two of the most critical questions that I hear most frequently from solo and small firm practitioners: How do I go about hiring staff and how do I train my staff to best support my organization? Molly has a unique take on outsourcing that I think will be invaluable to solo and small firm attorneys who want to stay focused on what they do best – like practicing law – but also want their business to run smoothly and efficiently.

Today we're joined by a familiar face and a new face, Erin Gerstenzang and Megan Zavieh, who recently delivered a fabulous presentation at the ABA techshow titled “Care and Feeding of Social Media: Enhancing Your Presence Online.” So, this episode is about why attorneys should be using social media – because it is an essential tool for communication with clients and potential clients – and how attorneys can do this more effectively and efficiently. We discuss overcoming the reluctance to join social media, how you can make the process of maintaining your online presence easier, the tools that will help you stay on top of using multiple platforms, and the evolving rules covering lawyers' use of social media.

Continuing with the theme of Character introductions, today we dive back into Nathan’s world as we read the intro of Lilly Daylite.
Today, I'm sitting down with two of the people behind CASEpeer, a case management tool designed to support personal injury attorneys – and as a reformed personal injury litigator, I was blown away by the demonstration of this product. I don't have any stake in this company, and I don't get anything for having them on the show, but I really do believe it will be an absolute game changer in the personal injury space.

Today, we're discussing an interesting and important subject that I have been ignoring for too long: eDiscovery. I had sort of willingly ignored this subject because I didn't fully understand it and didn't see it's applicability to my practice areas, but our industry has gotten to the point that we simply can't keep ignoring the needs and requirements of eDiscovery, especially given some recent changes in professional conduct rules for attorneys. To teach us more about what eDiscovery is and why being mindful of it is so critical these days, we're joined by returning guests Brett Burney and Chelsey Lambert, who teamed up create the eDiscovery Buyers Guide. These two have a lot of valuable insight, and they created an extremely helpful resource that all small firm and solo attorneys should definitely take a look at.

Melissa Fecak went through a number of different careers – like toy designer and veterinary technician – before starting family law 19 years ago, where she now focuses on mediation and collaborative law.

Allison Williams is back and she has something new to share with us: Law Firm Mentor. Allison first joined the show back in episode 125, when she discussed creating one of the most successful child abuse defense practices in New Jersey (if not the most successful). We talked about what it took to go from small firm attorney to CEO – Allison scaled her practice 846% in four years, and it is now a multi-million dollar business that only takes 5-10 hours of her week – and that transformation is exactly what her new coaching program is designed to facilitate. Full disclosure: I have no financial connection to Law Firm Mentor and I am not getting paid for having Allison on the program. I simply had the opportunity to check it out first-hand and I think she has a lot of value to offer solo and small firm practitioners.

Travis Luther is the creator of LawFather, an award-winning digital media agency for lawyers and law firms. They offer clients traditional digital marketing services like web design and search engine optimization, but on top of that, they create innovative mediation and trial support products like digital settlement brochures. They also created a cloud-based app called https://trialline.net/ (TrialLine), and I think this could be a real game changer for how lawyers store, collate, and present information, particularly for litigation or settlement purposes. It's a quite a breakthrough for litigation management, and I think any attorney who frequently finds themselves presenting a timeline of events in court will want to check this out.

I just saw Michael Simon and Andrew Pery present a fascinating discussion at the ABA Tech Show, and I knew it was something I had to share with all of you. Their talk focused on how attorneys can make robots work for them, and today, they're going to share how solo and small firm practitioners can use artificial intelligence and robots to grow or optimize their firms. Michael is an eDiscovery and information governance expert and the Principal (and Ronin) at Seventh Samurai. He was also an early innovator using electronic evidence in cases. Andrew is a marketing executive with a lot of experience in content management and business process automation, and he actually earned a Master's of Law before he fell into the tech world.

Kimberly Bennett runs a boutique trademark and business strategy practice out of Atlanta that provides a subscription service for businesses all around the country. It is a flat fee for virtual general counsel law services, and it just might offer a glimpse at the future of professional service business models.
