In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Lindsey Busfield discuss:The nuances and strategic use of SEO for law firm marketingThe importance of selective client intake for long-term successEvaluating the effectiveness of social media versus SEO in legal marketingUtilizing modern website tools and AI-driven bots for better client engagement Key Takeaways:SEO can be a game-changer, but only for firms in the right geographic and competitive conditions—others should consider niche targeting or different marketing strategies entirely.Social media rarely drives real case volume for law firms, unless it's used with intention, high-quality content, and deep community alignment.Choosing the right clients is just as important as hiring the right team, because poor client fit leads to burnout, financial issues, and strained relationships.Website platforms should match your marketing goals, with WordPress offering the best SEO flexibility, while simpler tools like Squarespace are fine for credibility-focused sites. "I have never talked to a lawyer who has said, 'Yes, I am getting half of my caseload through social media because it's so great.' That being said, social media can be really helpful as part of a grassroots campaign." —  Lindsey Busfield Got a challenge growing your law practice?

Driven, focused, and passionate about helping attorneys reach their full potential, Steve Fretzin is regarded as the premier coach, skills trainer, and keynote speaker on business development for attorneys.Over the past 17 years, Steve Fretzin has devoted his career to helping lawyers master the art of business development to achieve their business goals and the peace of mind that comes with developing a successful law practice.In addition to writing three books on legal marketing and business development, Steve has a highly-rated podcast BE THAT LAWYER and has been featured in the Chicago Tribune, Crain's, and Entrepreneur.com. He has appeared on NBC News, WGN Radio and has written articles for Attorney at Law Magazine, the National Law Review, the American Bar Association, and the Illinois State Bar Association. You can also find his monthly column in the Chicago Daily Law Bulletin. In this episode, Dean Newlund and Steve Fretzin discuss:Making every day count. Sales-free selling. The best experience for buyers. Developing relationships takes intention. Key Takeaways:Sometimes, being aware that life is truly fragile and short is what we need to realize how we could live our best life. Don't wait for a crisis, make every day count starting today. If you're analytical and a natural problem solver, you might be inclined to solve without listening first. However, the best way to get sales is to listen and make the client feel like they're being understood and see if your solution would be a fit. The best experience for a buyer is for them to not be sold anything, but for them to buy what they want and what is a fit for what they need. If you want to have interesting points of discussion, a good and simple idea is to research that person and ask questions about the things they put out there.   "Lawyers love to solve problems, fix things, get creative over language - that's all fine and dandy… the problem is what they're doing is giving free consulting, what they're not doing is… ask questions, listen, let them feel understood." — Steve Fretzin  See Dean's TedTalk “Why Business Needs Intuition” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEq9IYvgV7I Connect with Steve Fretzin:  Website: http://www.fretzin.comTwitter: https://twitter.com/stevefretzinFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/salesresults/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevefretzin/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/SalesResultsInc  Connect with Dean:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgqRK8GC8jBIFYPmECUCMkwWebsite: https://www.mfileadership.com/The Mission Statement E-Newsletter: https://www.mfileadership.com/blog/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deannewlund/Twitter: https://twitter.com/deannewlundFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MissionFacilitators/Email: dean.newlund@mfileadership.comPhone: 1-800-926-7370

How Tatia Gordon-Troy Used Her Law Degree and Her love of Writing to Create Her Dream Career

As a teenager Tatia Gordon wanted to be a model.  She thought this might be her calling after she won some contests and landed a few jobs, but eventually the reality of the limitations of her 5 ft. 4 inch height sunk in.  Luckily she had a teacher who would not let her become discouraged.  Her teacher took a special interest in her, and Tatia credits her for inspiring and convincing her that she had potential in other areas.   Even so, Tatia's first year of college did not go well.  She felt overwhelmed and unprepared.  She dropped out for a year, and when she returned, she took only one or two courses at a time.  By the time she graduated, she had matured and gained the confidence needed to build an admirable 3.8 average.    She went to work as an accountant, as she had very little exposure to other career possibilities. An uncle, impressed by her grades, suggested she might consider going on to law school.  Tatia hadn't thought too much about a graduate degree yet, but this idea intrigued her.  She began researching, and within a year, she was accepted and enrolled at the University of Baltimore School of Law.   It was her time in law school that helped her discover her love of writing. How would she follow this path? She decided journalism classes might be in order, and rather than waiting until she finished law school, she signed up for some journalism courses at another college nearby.  She had been watching legal analysts on TV during the OJ Simpson trial and decided with a law degree and some journalism skills and practice, she too could stand before the cameras.  She managed to get as far as auditioning for Court TV, but when her husband was hesitant about pulling up stakes in Baltimore and moving to New York, she rethought her goals.   Tatia didn't give up on either journalism or law though.  Instead, she found a job as a reporter for the Daily Record, a legal paper in Baltimore.  There she was in charge of the legal beat and wrote newsletters. She put in 3 years at this work and gained a lot of skills including writing with deadlines to meet. The job also gave her the opportunity to interact with many movers and shakers.  It was at this time she met the influential Representative Elijah Cummings from Maryland's 7th District.  The congressman took a liking to her, and within a few short months of knowing him, he offered her a job as his press secretary in Washington, D.C.   She jumped at the chance for this new and exciting prospect.  She was constantly busy, but the job was disappointing in that she found she really didn't like politics.  But again, the work taught her many new skills and provided a helpful addition to her resume.    Tatia next moved on to a small law firm in Baltimore to practice law for the first time. The position reaffirmed for her that neither politics nor the practice of law truly were her forte.  She stayed for a couple of years before moving to an association for immigration attorneys, the American Immigration Lawyers Association. She wrote, edited, collaborated, proofread and did a myriad of other related tasks.  She helped grow the association through her work and spearheaded the efforts to publish the award winning, first-ever member magazine, Immigration Law Today.  She eventually became the Director and Senior Legal Editor. She also was the founder and publisher of Attorney at Law Magazine, an edition published for attorneys practicing in some of the Washington, D.C. suburbs.   Fifteen years passed and Tatia loved the work she was doing. But it occurred to her she might have found yet another fulfilling role to explore. She didn't pivot too far though, because she would still do what she loved. Tatia became an entrepreneur, starting her own publishing company with the goal of helping other attorneys self-publish.  Ramses House Publishing LLC has existed for over 6 years now. In her role she educates and guides attorneys who want to have their works published.  She offers assistance at any and every step of the publishing process. She also consults, calling on the experience she has gained, making organizations not only sustainable but also profitable.    Tatia has found her business very rewarding. She successfully managed to blend her law degree with her love of the written word. Her law school experience taught her how to think outside the box, and that skill has been invaluable to her every day.   She tells Amy she would advise anyone starting their own business to know what they are getting into.  “Running your own business is a 24/7 hustle,” she says. She suggests if you fall flat, it's because you didn't realize you have to do everything on your own. She works hard to nurture new professional relationships. She writes two regular columns on LinkedIn to reach out. You can find these on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. “The What Nots” which offers advice on what not to do if you want to be published.  The second column is “Behind the Book”.  Here she gives advice on the ins and outs of publishing, and serves up great food for thought.   Enjoy listening to this affable entrepreneur describe her climb to success by staying true to herself and making the very best of her innate talents.    Topics in this episode:   A law degree can prepare you for much more than practicing law   It's important when you own a business to steadily network and build relationships   Build on your often discounted “soft” skills too when you're deciding on a career   Find online resources that help you make connections with clients and others who are doing what you are   Always seek out new skills to develop in a job that you can carry forward to your next step     Links:   publishingforlawyers.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/tatiagordontroy/ tatia@ramseshp.com

And the reality is that listing off five or ten things that you do, pretty much just falls on deaf ears.” “It's all about organization. And it's all about leveraging resources…. Whether it's work that you shouldn't be doing that you should be…handing over to associates, paralegals assistants, etc. or it's the idea that… you haven't made the proper hire, to be able to delegate and then go out and get more business.” “Into the simplest form: it's about having a great plan. Something that you can look at every day that you can execute on every week, that speaks to you. And it's the lowest hanging fruit. It's not about how many hours you put into it. It's about a plan that's focused and targeted, as well as having a tracking system, because as we talked about earlier, if you don't measure it, you can't manage it.” CONNECT WITH STEVE FRETZINOver the past 16 years, Steve Fretzin has devoted his career to helping law firms and lawyers master the art of legal business development to achieve their business goals and the peace of mind that comes with developing a successful law practice.In addition to writing three books on legal business development, Steve has been featured in the Chicago Tribune, Crain's, and Entrepreneur.com.
