In this powerful episode 118, Part 2 of Going Forward, host Eric Elliott continues his conversation with Brooke Lively, Founder of Scaling Law, for a deeper look at what actually makes a law firm scalable, valuable & sustainable.Picking up from Part 1, Eric & Brooke move beyond the idea that more leads will fix everything. Instead, they dig into the numbers law firm owners need to understand if they want to grow without creating chaos. Brooke explains how firms can identify whether they have a marketing problem, an intake problem, operations problem or a cash flow problem & why the answer is usually found in the data.They discuss conversion rates, qualified leads, referral sources, appointment show rates, staffing capacity, case inventory & the financial pressure that comes with growth. Brooke also shares why some firms feel like they are growing revenue but still feel broke & why law firm owners need to understand the true cost of supporting each case before chasing the next level.The conversation also turns toward EOS, Scaling Law, and what makes a law firm more attractive to a buyer or successor. She explains why systems create value, why owner dependency lowers firm value why firms become vulnerable when too much knowledge, marketing, or decision-making depends on one person or one source.Topics include: how to know whether your firm has a marketing, intake, or operations problem; why conversion rates matter at every stage; what law firm owners often misunderstand about cash flow; why growing revenue can still leave a firm feeling broke; how case inventory impacts capacity; why systems increase law firm value; how EOS helps reduce owner dependency; what makes a law firm more attractive to a buyer & why no single lead source should carry too much of the firm's growth.Sustainable law firm growth does not come from chasing more leads. It comes from understanding the numbers, building the systems & creating a firm that can operate with discipline long after the owner steps out of the center.Connect w/ Eric Elliott:Website: https://ericelliott.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ericelliottspeakerLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/theericelliott/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ericmelliott/Twitter: https://twitter.com/EricMElliottTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ericmelliottEmail: Eric@EricElliott.comText: 843-279-5843Connect w/ Brooke Lively:Website: https://brookelively.com/Scaling Law: https://www.scalinglaw.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brookelively/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/scaling_law/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/scalinglawYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ScalingLawSupercharge your online advertising campaigns with Optmyzr!

In this eye-opening episode 118, Part 1 of Going Forward, host Eric Elliott sits down with Brooke Lively, Founder of Scaling Law, for the first half of a two-part conversation on what it really takes to build a healthier, more profitable law firm. In Part 1, Brooke & Eric unpack a hard truth many law firm owners eventually face: growth is not always the same as health.Brooke has spent years helping law firms become more profitable, systemized, and scalable through financial strategy, fractional CFO work and EOS implementation. In this first part of the conversation, she & Eric dive into the pressures facing personal injury firms today, from rising client acquisition costs to private equity, case volume, cash flow & the temptation to chase more leads before fixing what is happening inside the firm.Together, they explore why “more cases” can actually create more problems when a firm does not have the cash, staff, systems, or litigation capacity to work those cases well. Brooke explains why contingency firms have to think carefully about the cost of carrying cases for months before getting paid, and why growth can become dangerous when it is not balanced with cash.Eric and Brooke also discuss the difference between a busy law firm owner and one who is actually building enterprise value. From vision and people to data, process, and traction, Brooke breaks down how EOS helps firms stop spinning in circles and start rowing in the same direction.Topics include: why growth can become dangerous for PI firms; how rising client acquisition costs impact profitability; why leads do not cure all; the relationship between case volume, cash flow & staffing; why insurance companies know which firms will litigate; signs a law firm has outgrown the way it is being managed; six key components of EOS; why law firms need vision, data & process to scale responsibly.In Part 2, we continue with a deeper look at intake, conversion rates, cash flow, owner dependency & more.Connect w/ Eric Elliott:Website: https://ericelliott.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ericelliottspeakerLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/theericelliott/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ericmelliott/Twitter: https://twitter.com/EricMElliottTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ericmelliottEmail: Eric@EricElliott.comText: 843-279-5843Connect w/ Brooke Lively:Website: https://brookelively.com/Scaling Law: https://www.scalinglaw.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brookelively/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/scaling_law/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/scalinglawYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ScalingLawSupercharge your online advertising campaigns with Optmyzr!

In this powerful episode 117 of Going Forward, host Eric Elliott sits down with entrepreneur, ecommerce strategist, educator, and founder Ezra Firestone for a conversation that has been in the making since Eric first met Ezra in person in 2024.Known for building and leading brands like Smart Marketer, BOOM, Zipify Apps, and other ecommerce ventures, Ezra brings a conversation that goes far beyond ecommerce tactics. Together, Eric and Ezra explore what it really means to build something valuable without losing sight of your life, your people, or your purpose.From growing up on a hippie commune to building multiple successful companies, Ezra shares how his early relationship with money shaped his view of entrepreneurship. He explains why money can buy comfort but not fulfillment, why service should sit at the center of business, and how his guiding philosophy, “serve the world unselfishly and profit,” has shaped the way he builds.Ezra opens up about the lessons he learned from losing money on a failed software product, why founders often become the bottleneck inside their own companies, and how one day a week of high-level thinking can change the way a business grows. They also dive deep into modern marketing: why the best product does not always win, why the best promise often does, how social proof and manufacturing transparency build trust, and why brands need to understand the real motivations of the people they serve.Topics include: building a business around service; why money does not create fulfillment; lessons from ecommerce, software, and education; how founders become bottlenecks; the power of delegation and team autonomy; why profitability matters more than vanity growth; what makes customers trust a brand; the role of social proof in modern marketing; how to make a better promise; and what it means to go forward by enjoying what you already have.Connect w/ Eric Elliott:Website: https://ericelliott.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ericelliottspeakerLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/theericelliott/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ericmelliott/Twitter: https://twitter.com/EricMElliottTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ericmelliottEmail: Eric@EricElliott.comText: 843-279-5843Connect w/ Ezra Firestone:Website: https://loverunnethover.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ezrafirestone/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ezrafirestone/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MeetEzra/Smart Marketer: https://smartmarketer.com/Zipify Apps: https://zipify.com/BOOM: https://boombeauty.com/Supercharge your online advertising campaigns with Optmyzr!

In this special episode 116 of Going Forward, we're turning the microphone around. This episode is a re-release of Eric Elliott's recent appearance on Personal Injury Mastermind with host Chris Dreyer, a conversation we found so valuable that we wanted to share it directly with the Going Forward audience.Eric, Founder of VIP Marketing and Craft Creative, joins Chris to unpack what law firms often misunderstand about growth, marketing, and what it actually takes to compete in a crowded personal injury market. Rather than focusing on quick tactics or chasing the newest platform, Eric brings the conversation back to the fundamentals: budget, media, and message.Together, Eric and Chris discuss why stronger marketing rarely comes from simply spending more money. They explore how law firms can better align their advertising strategy with their goals, how digital campaigns can be used to test messaging before scaling into larger media investments, and why intake systems play such a critical role in whether marketing turns into signed cases.Eric also shares his perspective on the difference between a traditional marketing funnel and a true referral flywheel. For firms that want long-term growth, the goal is not just to generate leads. It is to create a better client experience, build trust in the community, and make real “community deposits” that compound over time.Topics include: budget, media, and message alignment; why more leads do not always mean more cases; how intake can quietly make or break marketing performance; using Meta ads and digital campaigns to test messaging; understanding the math behind law firm growth; building a sustainable referral flywheel; and why community trust is one of the most powerful advantages a law firm can create.This episode is a grounded reminder that sustainable growth is not built on guesswork. It is built through alignment, accountability, and a marketing strategy that holds up after the phone starts ringing.Connect w/ Eric Elliott:Website: https://ericelliott.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ericelliottspeakerLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/theericelliott/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ericmelliott/Twitter: https://twitter.com/EricMElliottTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ericmelliottEmail: Eric@EricElliott.comText: 843-279-5843Connect w/ Chris Dreyer:Chris Dreyer Website: https://chrisdreyer.co/Chris Dreyer Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisdreyerco/?hl=enRankings.io Website: https://rankings.io/Personal Injury Mastermind (PIM): https://www.youtube.com/@pim_orgAvailable Books on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/Chris-Dreyer/author/B008AZZ4F8?ref=ap_rdr&shoppingPortalEnabled=trueSupercharge your online advertising campaigns with Optmyzr!

In this honest and eye-opening episode 115 of Going Forward, host Eric Elliott sits down with entrepreneur, automation expert, and Co-CEO of Biggest Goal, Alane Boyd, to unpack what it really takes to scale a business without losing yourself in the process.Alane has built and exited multiple companies, but what she shares in this conversation goes far beyond strategy. From the painful reality that “no one owes you their loyalty” to the moment she was forced to step back from her own company, she reveals the hard truths most founders avoid until it's too late.Together, they explore the hidden costs of growth, including burnout, identity loss, and the pressure of being the “hero” inside your own business. Alane opens up about the physical toll scaling took on her health and how chronic stress forced her to rethink everything.They also dive into one of the biggest mistakes founders make: believing that being good is enough. As Alane explains, if you're not telling your story, no one knows you exist, and that misunderstanding can quietly limit your growth.From systems and automation to leadership and letting go, this episode challenges the way most people think about building a company. It's not just about scaling revenue, it's about building something that can operate without you.Topics include:The emotional reality of scaling a businessWhy employees leaving can break a company without systems in placeThe danger of “hero syndrome” in leadershipHow burnout can physically impact your healthWhy marketing yourself matters more than you thinkBuilding systems that protect your businessHow AI and automation are reshaping the future of our workThis episode is a powerful reminder that growth isn't just about doing more, it's about letting go.Connect w/ Eric Elliott:Website: https://ericelliott.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ericelliottspeakerLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/theericelliott/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ericmelliott/Twitter: https://twitter.com/EricMElliottTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ericmelliottEmail: Eric@EricElliott.comText: 843-279-5843Connect w/ Alane Boyd:Website: https://www.biggestgoal.ai/Medium Articles: https://medium.com/@AlaneBoydLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alaneboyd/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_hurricanealane/Supercharge your online advertising campaigns with Optmyzr!

In this episode of Going Forward, Eric Elliott sits down with Jason Myers, CEO of Legal Conversion Center, for a no-BS conversation about leadership, empathy, and the unseen moments that define a company's reputation.Jason shares his unlikely path from answering phones for minimum wage to leading a 100+ person organization built on one simple philosophy: dignity and respect. Together, they unpack why empathy isn't a soft skill, but a competitive advantage, especially in an industry where calls often come on the worst day of someone's life.They also tackle the reality of AI in legal intake. Jason breaks down where automation works, where it fails, and why the most important calls; the ones that shape trust, reputation, and outcomes still demand a human voice.This episode is about people, culture, and responsibility. About earning profit the right way. And about remembering that behind every phone call is a human being who needs to feel heard.Connect w/ Eric Elliott: Website: ericelliott.com LinkedIn: @eric-elliott Instagram: @ericmelliott Twitter: @ericmelliott Email: Eric@EricElliott.com Text: 843-279-5843Connect w/ Jason Myers: Website: https://legalconversioncenter.com/Supercharge your online advertising campaigns with Optmyzr!

ICYMI - MODERNIZING THROUGH EVOLUTION NOT REVOLUTIONGuust NieuwenhuisJanuary 10, 2023 | 15:00 - 16:00 EST (1 hour)Our company has grown over a quarter of a century, and across those years we have matured as developers and IT companies, refining both our tools and practices to a degree that the past seems hardly recognizable. Counter to this are the inevitable compromises, products of constrained timeframes, limited client budgets or strained resources. Projects inevitably lean more towards growth and depth than general modernization, to the point that they become difficult to maintain. So, what happens when the bugs add up and the monster emerges? Refactor? Rewrite from scratch? We've been involved in many such projects, internally and inherited both, and have learned there is no simple answer to the question “how do we move forward?” Through case studies and anecdotes I will explain what to look out for, from both a technical and business perspective.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIZ0S-4WxDUICYMI - EASIER API DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING - USE POSTMAN, WEBHOOK.SITE, AND NGROK TO ENHANCE YOUR WORKFLOWDaniel GarciaJanuary 12, 2023 | 12:00 - 13:00 EST (1 hour)Postman, Webhook.site, and ngrok are great tools that can really enhance your API development and testing workflow. PostMan is a cross-platform API Testing Tool with lots of awesome features, Webhook.site allows you to easily inspect, test, and automate any incoming HTTP request or e-mails, and ngrok enables you to expose a web server running on your local machine to the internet. These are must-have tools for any API developer (either creating or consuming). In short, these tools solve problems and best of all, they all have free versions which allow you to be very productive. My goal is that after this conference, you will start using at least one, if not all three, tools when you get home. I'm not saying using these tools will be life-changing, but I am also not not saying that eitherhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBgYHzPxDCsICYMI - LEVERAGING AI / COGNITIVE SERVICES VIA COLDFUSIONMichael HayesJanuary 17 | 12:00 - 13:00 pm EST (1 hour)Azure Cognitive Services is API that leverages AI and Machine Learning to provide capability such as Sentiment Analysis, Entity Recognition, Auto Translator, Text to Speech, speech translation, and many more. All this would be written in ColdFusion 2021 of course and a GIT repo of the code will be shared with the community. There may be a secondary package that will be shared that would convert PostMan / Swagger collections to ColdFusion for rapid development via API's.SPREADSHEET MAGICKevin WrightJanuary 19 | 12:00 - 13:00 pm EST (1 hour)Microsoft Office is the 'de facto' standard in most business environments. In this session we will look at different ways of integrating with one of the most used applications of the MS office suite, Excel. Come learn how to create, access and manipulate spreadsheets programmatically with the CFSPREADSHEET tag in ColdFusion. We will go beyond basic read and write features, and will delve into more advanced techniques like working with formulas and formatting, and creating multiple sheets. We will also look at examples of more complex types of spreadsheets by using lookups and even creating and embedding dynamic charts.

The typical way in which we do this is to call createObject("java") and pass in a Java class name. Historically, I've tended to cache the returned Java class value, operating under the assumption that createObject() had a lot of overhead. But, I don't think I ever based this assumption on any concrete evidence. As such, I wanted to perform a trite performance exploration regarding the createObject() function in Lucee CFML.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4387-testing-performance-overhead-of-creating-java-classes-in-lucee-cfml.htmUpdates about using `createObject` with 3rd-party jars:https://luceeserver.atlassian.net/browse/LDEV-2952https://luceeserver.atlassian.net/browse/LDEV-4064 1/15/23 - Blog - Ben Nadel - Overriding Form Submission Properties Using Button Attributes In Native HTMLFor the last few weeks, I've been [very slowly] looking into the Hotwire framework from Basecamp. One of the guiding principles of Hotwire seems to be, "HTML has a bunch of great stuff, let's use it!" Case in point, I was reading through a Thoughtbot article on rendering live previews by Sean Doyle when I saw something that I had never seen before: submit buttons with form "action" and "method" attributes. Apparently, this has been supported by browsers going back to IE 10; but, since I've never seen it before, I wanted to try it out for myself in ColdFusion.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4389-overriding-form-submission-properties-using-button-attributes-in-native-html.htm 1/14/23 - Blog - Ben Nadel - CUID2 For ColdFusion / CFMLA couple of years ago, I built a ColdFusion port of the CUID library which we've been using successfully at InVision. The CUID library provides collision-resistant IDs that are optimized for horizontal scaling and performance. Just recently, however, Eric Elliott released Cuid2 - an updated version of the library intended to address some philosophical security issues. I wanted to create a ColdFusion port of his new Cuid2 library.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4388-cuid2-for-coldfusion-cfml.htm 1/16/23 - Blog - Ben Nadel - Dynamically Instrumenting ColdFusion Component Methods With GetTickCount() To Locate Performance BottlenecksColdFusion is a highly dynamic language. Which means, we can perform all manner of runtime mutations and reflections on our data structures and components. In fact, I've talked about this concept many times before, from applying StatsD metrics to creating tracked transactions in FusionReactor to adding retry logic around database access calls. All of these approaches use a variation on the same theme: generating proxy methods that add logic around lower-level component method execution. And today, in an effort to identify the performance bottlenecks in my CUID2 for ColdFusion implementation, I'm doing it again!https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4390-dynamically-instrumenting-coldfusion-component-methods-with-gettickcount-to-locate-performance-bottlenecks.htmComment about performance on Ben's last post: https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4388-cuid2-for-coldfusion-cfml.htm#comments_54105 CFML JobsSeveral positions available on https://www.getcfmljobs.com/Listing over 39 ColdFusion positions from 25 companies across 22 locations in 5 Countries.4 new jobs listed this weekFull Time - Cold Fusion Developer (REMOTE) - NASA Houstonhttps://jobs.smartrecruiters.com/MoriAssociates/743999877816700-cold-fusion-developer-remote-nasa-houston?trid=463ac537-35c8-4256-8fe4-47ea285de0a6Full-Time - ColdFusion Developer at Remote - United Kingdom Jan 11https://www.getcfmljobs.com/jobs/index.cfm/united-kingdom/ColdFusion-Developer-at-Remote/11544Full-Time - Web/ColdFusion Developer at isummation technologies - India Jan 14https://www.getcfmljobs.com/jobs/index.cfm/india/WebColdFusion-Developer-at-India/11545Full-Time - Middle ColdFusion Developer at EPAM Systems - India Jan 17https://www.getcfmljobs.com/jobs/index.cfm/india/Middle-ColdFusion-Developer-at-India/11546Other Job LinksOrtus Solutionshttps://www.ortussolutions.com/about-us/careers South of Shasta - https://southofshasta.com/blog/cfml-developer-wanted/ There is a jobs channel in the CFML slack team, and in the Box team slack now tooForgeBox Module of the Weekqb 9.0.0-beta.1Lots of great features and bug fixes SQLite Grammar (Thanks to Jason Steinshouer) SQLCommenter Support (https://google.github.io/sqlcommenter/) Many bug fixes and performance improvements The docs are currently being updated: https://qb.ortusbooks.com/v/9.0.0https://www.forgebox.io/view/qb/version/9.0.0-beta.1VS Code Hint Tips and Tricks of the WeekZen ModeZen Mode lets you focus on your code by hiding all UI except the editor (no Activity Bar, Status Bar, Side Bar and Panel), going to full screen and centering the editor layout.

It's not often that a blog post sets the internet on fire. But a recent post by Cory Brown about async/await led to an uproar and even messages of pity from Hacker News. Who knew a simple post about pattern preferences would cause such controversy? Today, Cory's here to explain his side of the story for those happily using async/await in various concurrency patterns. Luckily, Cory believes, to each their own, and even welcomes responses from developers like Eric Elliott and Robbie as important food for thought. So which universe do you prefer? Object-oriented or functional? In this episode, Cory talks with Chuck and Robbie about why he prefers promise to async/await, his response to Robbie's weekly rant on classes, what really makes an engineer “senior”, how every tech team should operate, and why Cory recently chose to learn Scottish Gaelic. Key Takeaways [00:40] - A brief introduction to Cory. [01:19] - A whiskey review. [08:39] - Cory's controversial opinion on async/await patterns. [18:56] - How Cory views classes and his defense of Hooks. [29:54] - Why time matters with engineer seniority. [42:00] - A Dr. Pepper and obscure language-themed whatnot. Quotes [26:27] - “I've already seen ideas from the object-oriented world come in and benefit the functional world. And vice versa — the functional world come in and really benefit the object-oriented world. So I don't want to see either of them go away even as I choose to essentially wholly live on one side.” ~ Cory Brown [37:10] - “If you have any hope of going to whatever your next job is and entering a codebase that is at all reasonable, then we need to start training our junior engineers. And unfortunately, businesses are not investing in that for whatever reason so it's on us to do that.” ~ Cory Brown [40:24] - “A large chunk of the last several years of my career has been a diminished focus on producing stuff directly and more in enabling others to produce more quickly.” ~ Cory Brown Links Cory Brown on Twitter Cory's website Aumni National Geographic Spiritless Kentucky 74 Eric Elliott Why I avoid async/await JavaScript Promise Async/await Hacker News YAML Douglas Crockford Yehuda Katz Ember.js React Preact Stencil.js Hooks Clojure The Coming Storm (Cory's post about emerging software developers) Backstage Dr. Pepper Costco Duolingo Cory Brown speaking Galic (00:52) UtahJS Conference Kent C.
