Podcast appearances and mentions of Jonathan Hawkins

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a law firm owner looking for strategies to build a better business? In this episode of Maximum Lawyer, Tyson interviews Jonathan Hawkins, an attorney specializing in advising law firms on business management and legal strategy. Jonathan shares practical insights on building strong client retainer agreements, protecting against associate turnover, and planning for partnership transitions. Jonathan shares some strategies law firms need to use to protect themselves when associates leave and take clients with them. One thing to embed in your processes is establishing partnership agreements with lawyers you hire. This is a way to outline stipulations as it relates to a lawyer leaving and taking a client. Though a client has the ultimate choice, it can be included in an agreement that a lawyer should not encourage their client to leave with them. As a firm owner, this protects your downside and provides you with some sort of protection when it comes to losing clients.Tyson and Jonathan chat about value drivers for law firms and how owners can enhance their practice when it comes time to sell. A big value driver for a potential buyer are the employees. If a new owner is looking to take over, having solid employees and a good leadership team will attract someone to jump in. It will make the transition much smoother and leave the buyer feeling confident in their decision. Another value driver are marketing systems. If your firm has great systems to market itself, someone will be more inclined to buy because they see the dedication that exists within the firm and how it presents itself.Listen in to learn more!2:17 Advice on foundational systems for new law firms4:09 Strategies to protect law firms when associates leave9:57 Common legal protections firms neglect28:27 Additional value drivers for law firms36:34 The importance of succession and incapacity planning Tune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here. Connect with Jonathan:Website Linkedin

Johnathan is a University of Georgia School of Law graduate who works as the Owner of Law Firm GC.

His story is packed with valuable insights for anyone interested in both business and law, especially if you're thinking about carving out your own path.We kick things off before law school. After earning his degree, Johnathan took a step back, heading to Costa Rica for a couple of months to hit reset and figure out his next move. But, as happens to many of us, life has a way of nudging you back when resources run low. That's when Johnathan decided it was time to return stateside and begin law school.Law school? He wasn't exactly in love with it, but living in Athens certainly had its perks. What set him apart was his business acumen. He leaned into that instinct through internships and clerkships, eventually finding his footing in Plaintiff Personal Injury work.Then comes the pivotal moment: Johnathan shares his lessons on building his own practice, how he found his niche, and why being “in demand” as a lawyer means more than just showing up to the courtroom. Whether it's finding your ideal practice area, trying your first case, or closing deals, his street-smart advice is pure gold. And if you're on the path to partnership or dreaming of running your own firm, this episode is packed with actionable takeaways.Today, Johnathan runs Law Firm GC, where he's finally embraced the entrepreneurial spirit that's driven him from the start. He also hosts The Founding Partner Podcast, a show dedicated to legal professionals who are ready to launch their own practices—unfiltered stories of success, failure, and everything in between.This conversation is a masterclass in blending business savvy with legal expertise.

The net promoter system (NPS) has been an important method of measuring customer loyalty for the past two decades. But it was developed before the widespread use of big data and artificial intelligence. In this conversation with Jonathan Hawkins, CEO of Anthrolytics, we discuss how they use AI to predict both customer and call center agent behavior through analyzing existing operational data. Could their unique approach be a better method of measuring customer loyalty than NPS? Based this conversation, I think Anthrolytics has that potential.

Next year the onboarding process for the pension dashboard programme will kick off. The creation of a single dashboard where savers can see all their pension savings doesn't just pose questions for pension providers - it also raises questions for advisers.This week FTAdviser's news editor Amy Austin is joined by Jonathan Hawkins, consultant at Bravura, and Heather Hopkins, founder of NextWealth, to discuss some of the technology challenges which the looming arrival of the dashboard presents.They also discuss the potential impact on advisers and their clients, what the likely outcome will be of savers having access to increased amounts of information about their pensions, and why the advent of the pensions dashboard signals the end of clients simply outsourcing their life admin to advisers.

The spark is instant. Miles away from home they find each other. They were going to make it big, together. Fast forward years later, a world reset and changed forever they return to where they left it. One an award-winning writer, the other adopting a child and putting faith in crystals. The spark is still there, electric and dangerous. But how do you heal once you've been burned? This lyrical and witty three-hander is a heartfelt examination of what happens instead of “happy ever after”.

Several pension schemes have expressed dismay at the 2024 launch date for the pensions dashboard, but why? In this episode, Jonathan Hawkins from Bravura explains that schemes have no excuses for not having their data ready, and also outlines that opacity has been in the best interests of those offering little value to customers. We also look at the good that dashboards can bring. Like never before, UK pension holders will be able to see what's really going on with their investments, and they'll be able to access it easily and in an understandable manner. While this means that some will learn that they've been ripped off, it also means that we are moving into an era of better pension schemes, and greater transparency for those who need it most.

What story do you share with your clients? Or do you even share a story? Social media is a powerful tool for real estate agents, letting us connect like never before. When you consistently use those social media tools to tell stories, you’re going to see results in your sales. Storytelling is effective in sales: when you share simple facts, two parts of your brain are stimulated. When you share a story, you engage FIVE parts of the brain - including the part where the hearer imagines themselves as part of the story! You tell the story of a house, and the lifestyle of the family who lives in that home, and you’ve hooked a potential client as they see themselves living in the story that you’re telling. Doesn’t this sound familiar? Remember: we don’t sell homes, we sell dreams. Today we’ve honored to interview Jonathan Hawkins for the Selling the Dream podcast. Jonathan jumped into real estate all-in, and quickly skyrocketed to the top. He used social media and storytelling, and made selling look so easy that other agents came to him, looking for help with their social media strategies. Jonathan is passionate about helping others, so from those requests, The Hashtag Agent was born, and Jonathan now trains real estate agents in how they can use storytelling in their social media, and break negative perceptions that people have of the industry. Highlights of this episode: Tom introduces Jonathan Hawkins and his business, The Hashtag Agent. After 5 years in real estate, Jonathan Hawkins founded a company called The Hashtag Agent to help train real estate agents in how to use social media to promote themselves. Jonathan hadn’t had a plan: he just jumped all-in and aggressively took action. “I didn’t have an option, and had to work,” Jonathan says. “If you want to make it happen, it’s going to work.” That produced powerful results, and other real estate agents took note! In the beginning, Jonathan’s social media looked nothing like it does today: he learned the art of storytelling and sharing his personal story through trial and error. Jonathan never saw himself as the expert, but he was always willing to help others who came to him with questions. A lot of agents don’t like social media because they don’t always know what to say, and don’t want to show the hard things. When it comes to social media, pick a position and stick with it. Not everyone will love it, but the people who do love what you have to say will be the best clients for you! Social media is for storytelling. Only two parts of your brain are used to process facts, but 5 parts of your brain are activated when you tell a story! The audience envisions themselves as part of the story! Check out the book, “Building a Story Brand” by Donald Miller - it’s a great resource for learning how to tell your story. The Hashtag Agent began when people were coming to Jonathan looking for training in how to use Instagram or Facebook effectively; wanting to find training in ads. Now they are creating tons of content teaching storytelling, and how to make selling part of the big story. How can you use storytelling to sell second market homes? Don’t assume that clients know how it works! Don’t be afraid to show the story of the sale, so that people learn how to do it by watching someone else’s story. Make sure to be telling stories through your testimonials for those new clients. Most feedback tends to be generic. Use an anonymous survey through Survey Monkey or a similar program to anonymously gather the results and get good feedback. People who see your social media are going to be at different stages in life: make your ultimate goal be serving your clients. Want more resources?
