Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a law firm owner looking for ways to build team culture? In this episode, Kevin Cheney, a law firm owner and co-founder, shares how intentional culture-building can be for a firm's growth. He explains why culture—more than marketing or processes—drives retention, recruitment, client experience, and resilience. He offers a practical three-step framework for leaders to assess, envision, and build their ideal culture.Kevin shares some steps to building culture for a firm. The first is what your culture is today. Be brutally honest with yourself and admit what you are doing right and wrong. Another thing is to think about the future of this culture. Map out a five year plan - what needs to change and how can you change it. From there, decide what is important for your firm to have in order to be successful. At the end of the day, a positive team culture drives retention and improves employee experience. It is important to ensure your employees bond so they can work better together. Create opportunities for your staff to connect. For Kevin, he organizes happy hours and potlucks as ways for employees to have some fun and disconnect. Another option is to organize team bonding activities that build confidence and trust. Ensure to make these optional so staff are not forced but encouraged to participate.Listen in to learn more!1:07 Intentionality in Marketing, Processes, and Culture2:27 Defining Culture in a Law Firm6:51 Three Steps to Building Culture10:40 Facilitating Employee Bonding13:29 Employee Ownership MentalityTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.

After years of working alongside solopreneurs, 2025 finally gave us something new: real data, real patterns, and real lessons we couldn't ignore. In this episode, Carly and Joe step back from the nonstop AI conversation to unpack what actually moved the needle for solopreneurs this year, and what didn't. From why “human-first” marketing is outperforming polished automation, to the growing importance of personal brand, systems, community, diversified income, and mental health, this is a practical, honest look at what it truly takes to build a sustainable solo business.If you're heading into the next year wanting less stress, more clarity, and a business that works with your life instead of against it, this episode breaks down the biggest solopreneur lessons of 2025, and how to apply them moving forwardEpisode FAQsWhat were the biggest solopreneur lessons learned in 2025?The biggest solopreneur lessons from 2025 were that human-first marketing outperforms automation, strong personal brands build more trust than “company-style” positioning, and long-term success depends on systems, community, diversified income streams, and mental health. Solopreneurs who focused on authentic connection, clear processes, and sustainable work-life balance were more resilient and experienced less stress than those chasing trends or over-relying on a single client or revenue source. Why does a human-first approach matter more than ever for solopreneurs?A human-first approach matters because audiences are increasingly skeptical of overly automated, impersonal content. In 2025, solopreneurs saw stronger engagement and trust when they showed up as real people, sharing their perspective, personality, and lived experience instead of hiding behind polished brand language. Being authentic, transparent, and emotionally relatable helps solopreneurs stand out and build meaningful relationships, especially in an AI-saturated market. How can solopreneurs reduce stress while growing their business?Solopreneurs can reduce stress by building systems and processes, diversifying income streams, avoiding over-dependence on one or two clients, and intentionally protecting mental health and work-life balance. Investing time in documentation, automation, and community support creates long-term efficiency, while multiple revenue streams and customers reduce financial risk. Treating mental health as part of the business plan helps ensure the solopreneur, and the business, remain sustainable.

Expressing appreciation is a dying principal in modern business. There is no way around this. Saying THANK YOU to customers is all but dead. An expression of appreciation on a paper, or text receipt is not making any customer feel warm and fuzzy. When are you going to pick up the phone, write a handwritten note, or send some chocolates to a customer?Support the show
In this episode, I invite my fellow mom-entrepreneurs to embrace the power of owning your decisions, especially during the busy holiday season. Through my own stories—like choosing comfort with yoga pants at an event or taking a break from business to prioritize family—I show how simple, intentional choices can bring more presence and less stress.I encourage letting go of guilt and the heavy burden of societal “shoulds,” reminding you that saying no or stepping back doesn't diminish your worth as a business owner or a mom. I candidly share how I navigate external judgments and internal pressures, and remind you that it's always okay to re-decide and shift direction as your priorities change. By reflecting on budgeting and redefining holiday traditions, my hope is to inspire you to align your decisions with your values and confidently do what works best for your family and your business.This episode is a heartfelt reminder to simplify, trust your choices, and show up authentically in both your work and your home.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a firm owner looking for ways to integrate AI into your business? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Richard interviews Hamid Kohan, founder of Law Practice AI, about the rapid impact of AI and technology on law firm operations. Hamid introduces his three-part power model and discusses how these elements are transforming legal staffing, operations, and profitability. Hamid shares his three-part power model and how it can change hiring for firms. The model includes ⅓ local staff, ⅓ virtual staff and ⅓ AI. Including some of each can really transform a law firm and allow operations and staffing to benefit from aspects that might seem very different. Virtual staff can cut down your costs and AI can allow you to figure out ways to take some work away from busy local staff and simplify it.There are areas of a firm that would thrive using AI. AI can supplement what is going on and shift people into more customer facing roles where they are helping clients. Roles like legal assistance, document collections and document summaries can benefit from the use of AI. These do not really require much human interaction, so these areas can be streamlined and made to work in a way to benefit a firm.Listen to learn more!2:12 Defining the three part power model 4:29 The vision for an AI law firm operating system13:13 Reasons for the law field's slow tech adoption 40:12 Advice to start new AI-driven law firms 46:58 Areas of a firm that would thrive using AITune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.

What if the reason your business feels stressful isn't more work, it's how you're handling your money?In this episode, Megan Schwan pulls back the curtain on the financial mistakes almost every solopreneur makes (especially early on) and how to fix them without becoming a numbers nerd.We're talking pricing mistakes, scope creep, avoiding your books, fearing taxes, and why most solopreneurs are unknowingly treating themselves like underpaid employees. Megan breaks down bookkeeping systems, tax strategies, and the Profit First method in a way that actually makes sense, and helps you step fully into the CEO role.If you've ever said, “I'll look at my numbers next month,” this episode is for you.Episode FAQsWhat bookkeeping systems do solopreneurs really need to stay organized?You don't need complicated spreadsheets or expensive tools, but you do need structure. Megan recommends:A real accounting software (like Wave, QuickBooks Online, Zoho Books, or Xero)A mileage and receipt tracking system to capture deductionsA cash flow management system like Profit First to prioritize paying yourself, saving for taxes, and stabilizing cash flowThese systems help you treat your business like a business, not a side project.What's the first step if finances feel overwhelming or intimidating?Start doing your bookkeeping consistently. Megan emphasizes scheduling regular time to work on your business, not just in it. Reviewing your reports and understanding where your money is going builds confidence, clarity, and better decision-making. Avoiding the numbers only makes problems bigger later.How can solopreneurs become more recession-proof?Two big moves:Create a budget so you have a plan for your money and can ask smarter questions when numbers don't match expectations.Save for taxes proactively (about 8–15% of sales) so tax bills don't derail your cash flow or peace of mind.Megan also explains how Profit First helps solopreneurs build “real profit” and spot issues before they become emergencies.

Chris Anderson speaks with Dr. Brian McCarley about his journey from a head athletic trainer to a long-time successful chiropractor, guiding entrepreneurs, business leaders, and families.From Athletic Training to Chiropractic: Dr. Brian recounts his career shift, explaining that the late-night, intense lifestyle of an athletic trainer was incompatible with being a newlywed. This led him through a brief stint in the business world before choosing chiropractic—a more natural, faith-aligned healthcare approach—necessitating a difficult move to Texas for three years of school.The Entrepreneurial Decision Cascade: Success after the initial leap requires navigating a continuous series of smaller, difficult decisions that, when stacked together, can feel overwhelming. Dr. Brian advocates for prioritizing based on what's urgent versus what's truly important, and learning to make the "least bad decision" when all options are challenging. He suggests using whiteboards and Post-it Notes to visualize and prioritize tasks, and to always assess how one decision will affect others down the road.The Value of Advisors: Having a team of trusted advisors is crucial for gaining an outside perspective, simplifying complex issues, and identifying personal "blind spots" or ego-driven blocks that cloud judgment. Dr. Brian sees his role with patients and clients not as an educator, but as a "guide" to help them become the "hero of their own life."Overcoming "Brain Fog" with Health: The episode dives into the connection between health and entrepreneurial performance. Dr. Brian pinpoints "bright shiny syndrome" and neglecting self-care as common causes of mental clarity issues that compromise business-critical decisions.Practical Health Strategies for High-Achievers:Efficient Exercise: Focus on activities that offer the greatest benefit in the shortest time, citing rucking (walking with a weighted vest) as an effective, low-impact method.Time Management & Delegation: Calculate your effective hourly rate and delegate tasks that cost less than that rate to a VA or part-time help, freeing up the entrepreneur for high-value work and personal time.Hourly Brain Breaks: Set a timer to take a 5-minute break every hour to step away from the computer. This prevents neurological burnout and increases efficiency and problem-solving.The Logic of Intermittent Fasting: Dr. Brian shares his thoughts on intermittent fasting, noting that three meals a day is a product of the industrial revolution and that bodies are designed for periods of fasting. He advises anyone trying it to be deliberate, prepare for mental shifts, and learn to distinguish between true hunger and boredom by drinking water. This episode is NOT sponsored.

Have you ever had that one memory that sits in the back of your mind? That thing you wish you'd done differently? Something you didn't say, something you did say, the opportunity you passed up, the relationship you didn't repair, or the career move you waited too long to make? Most people don't just have one regret; they carry an entire portfolio of regrets with them. And if you're an accountant, a tax preparer, or you're a high-stress professional, you likely have a detail-driven brain, and regret often impacts you a little differently. Because you're used to precision. You're used to accuracy. You're used to double-checking before you file anything. So when your brain looks back at your life, it tends to audit every moment with the same level of scrutiny. And suddenly? Something from ten years ago starts feeling like a mistake you should have prevented. Today, I want to help you rethink the entire emotional experience of regret. What it is, what it does, why it feels so heavy, and how you can use it in a way that actually moves you forward in life instead of holding you back. More importantly, I want to show you how The RE*INVENTION™ Process helps you transform regret. This is one of the top emotions we work on inside the program. And my clients tell me when they do this work, they stop using their past as evidence of what they think has gone wrong, and start using it as fuel for their future.

J'ai lu une newsletter d'Ilise Benun (marketing mentor US) qui m'a fait hocher la tête tout du long.Elle parle de “pipeline” — cette liste de vraies personnes avec qui on a déjà entamé une relation : clients passés, prospects chauds, partenaires…Et elle te propose de revenir vers eux, maintenant.

Freiheit ist kein Gefühl, sondern ein System. In dieser Folge vom Der globale Solopreneur Podcast sprechen Tim und Dennis darüber, warum echte unternehmerische Freiheit nicht aus Spontanität und „einfach machen" entsteht – sondern aus klaren Strukturen, Systemen und minimalistischen Setups. Du erfährst unter anderem: warum viele Solopreneure hart, aber chaotisch arbeiten – und damit ständig im Reiz-Reaktions-Modus hängen wie Struktur Entscheidungen reduziert und mentale Last senkt warum du als Solopreneur eher Architekt & Dirigent deines Business sein solltest, statt alles selbst zu „spielen" wieso Minimalismus im Business oft die bessere Wachstumsstrategie ist als noch mehr Tools, Angebote und Baustellen welche psychologischen Fallen dich vom Kurs abbringen (Loss Aversion, Confirmation Bias, Shiny Objects, Komplexitätsfalle, Komfortzonenträgheit) – und wie Systeme dich genau davor schützen welche konkreten Systeme Freiheit schaffen: Leadflow, Delivery-Systeme, Weekly Operating System, KPI-Setup, Content-OS & Tool-Stack Zum Schluss geben Tim und Dennis dir eine klare 5-Schritte-Logik mit, wie du deine eigenen Systeme aufbauen kannst – mit deutlich mehr Ruhe, Fokus und echter Freiheit im Business. ⏱ Timestamps 00:00 – Intro & Kernthese: Freiheit ist kein Gefühl, sondern ein System 02:33 – Warum Solopreneure ohne Systeme scheitern 13:18 – Psychologische Kursabbringer & Minimalismus 21:58 – Konkrete Systeme & Takeaways

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you looking for ways to be better with your marketing strategies? In this episode of The Guild Live Show, Tyson discusses how AI, particularly the integration of HealthKit with ChatGPT, is transforming personalized health coaching. The conversation also covers neuroscience-backed learning strategies, the importance of embracing individuality over mediocrity, and agile marketing tactics like fast advertising..The founder of Mo Martech shares some bitter truths that challenge the current marketing norms. One is that marketing is not all about generating revenue. If you focus on that alone, you are forced to kind of do anything that sticks and chase leads for instant gratification. What you want to do is build affinity and relationships with consumers, which really requires patience. The second truth is that good marketing strategies involve consistent, multiyear narratives based on the psychology of the consumer. You need to understand over time how a consumer reacts or what draws their attention. From this, you can develop and maintain a good marketing strategy.In order to engage consumers with marketing, you need to be authentic and have something that fits your brand. Authenticity is the guardrail and is the thing that will connect your brand or product with the consumer. They need to feel you are authentic and that your marketing is genuine and real. Not every brand belongs in every conversation and you need to think if your brand has a reason to be in the moment as it relates to your marketing. Take some time to think about that as you develop your marketing strategy.Listen in to learn more!3:16 Wearables & Real-World Health Coaching 7:00 Three Bitter Truths for Marketers9:14 Marketing Is Not Instant Revenue 17:30 Encouraging Uniqueness in Teams & Family19:13 Seven Ways to Learn Faster 24:54 Fast Advertising: Real-Time Marketing 27:07 Authenticity & Brand Relevance in Fast Advertising Tune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a law firm owner looking for ways to make your firm more efficient? At the Maximum Law Conference, Rachel McGarry shares practical strategies for law firms to move from constant chaos to efficient, proactive operations. Drawing on her experience in estate planning and legal tech, Rachel emphasizes identifying root problems before adopting new technology. As a law firm, it is important to understand the recurring problems that occur before you implement solutions. Law firms are busy and chaotic places, with fires starting up everywhere. It is the nature of the field. As an owner, you need to shift your mindset to that of an engineer. You need to create sustainable solutions that will provide predictable success and growth without all the overwhelm. Doing this involves a few things. First, you need to create a blueprint to figure out what your firm needs. This will allow you to create a framework that will help form your vision. From there, you will find out what your frictions are that are causing fires for your firm which will lead to designing your solution.Rachel provides listeners with steps to take to see immediate results. One thing is to track the fires happening in your firm for 2 weeks. Get the whole team involved where everyone tracks the fires they are dealing with. You will be able to determine the patterns that are happening and can set one, measurable goal to overcome them.. Another step to take is auditing your clients at least once a month. This is a way to ensure there is good client communication frequently to update them on their case.Take a listen to learn more!00:44 Understanding recurring problems before implementing solutions2:41 Outlining a step-by-step framework for designing workflows7:33 Choosing tech tools only after systems are designed13:51 Steps for immediate law firm improvementTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.

If the holidays feel like a chaotic mash-up of family gatherings, last-minute tasks, and pressure to magically “figure out next year,” this episode is your breath of fresh air. Carly and Joe break down why December is actually the perfect time to prep your business, without overhauling your life, and how reconnecting with your why can completely change the way you enter 2026. They'll walk you through mini-detox habits that clear mental clutter, lifestyle-first planning that puts joy back on the calendar, and small routines you can start now to build real momentum before January even arrives.FAQs From The EpisodeHow early should I start planning for the new year?Earlier than you think, but not in an overwhelming way. December is a great month to ease into planning by reconnecting with your personal and professional “why,” cleaning up digital clutter, and building tiny habits you want to bring into 2026. You don't need a full-year plan, focus on your first 90 days, because it's specific enough to take action but flexible enough to pivot as things change.What should I prioritize during a December “business detox”?Stick to high-impact clean-ups that reduce mental load: unsubscribe from emails you never read, unfollow accounts that drain your energy, organize your workspace, clear your desktop, and gather scattered to-dos into one place. These small resets set the stage for clearer thinking and a calmer January, without requiring hours of work.How do I build new habits for 2026 without burning out before the year even starts?Start practicing them now in micro-form. If you want to wake up earlier, try doing it one or two days a week in December. If you want to spend 10 minutes engaging on LinkedIn every morning, start this week. If you want to guard your deep-work hours, experiment with checking email later in the day. You're not aiming for perfection, just building familiarity so January doesn't feel like a hard reset.

Customers defect after they have endured enough doses of la-di-da service. Time is the currency of the Experience Economy. When customers sense the violation of their time, they usually say goodbye to that vendor. It is simply their way to punish bad service. Where is your company in this cause and effect equation? Is it time to revise your service mindset?Support the show

In this episode, I'm talking to moms who are running a business and a household—and are tired of feeling behind. I share the story of my appendix surgery, when our home felt totally out of control, and how hiring a household helper/babysitter through a local Facebook group changed everything.We'll unpack what a household helper actually does (laundry, errands, tidying, returns, sheets, kid help) and why you don't need to be “bursting at the seams” to justify getting support. You'll hear common signs it's time to get help—like constant resentment, never feeling caught up, or canceling work blocks because the house feels chaotic.We'll also dig into the mindset and money blocks: believing you “should be able to do it all,” feeling guilty for wanting help, or thinking it has to be a huge financial commitment.You'll leave this episode with permission to outsource at home, practical ideas for starting small, and a new way to think about trading a little money for time, capacity, and mental peace.

In this episode, Will Simpson gets honest about the moment he realized he didn't want a boss. He breaks down the identity crisis that hit after leaving decades of COO/CTO life, the surprising advantage founders over 40 actually have, why solopreneurs must unlearn corporate thinking, and how embracing “good enough” is the key to launching anything. If you've ever wondered whether you're too late, too structured, too corporate, or too unsure to build something of your own…this conversation is the permission slip you've been waiting for.FAQs From The EpisodeWhat makes this episode valuable for solopreneurs who come from the corporate world?Will explains exactly why corporate experience does translate, just not in the ways you think. He talks through the mindset traps, the “ambient stress” you leave behind, and how to rewire yourself for small-ball thinking, fast execution, and building something that actually energizes you.Does Will think it's harder to become a founder after 40?Not at all, he argues the opposite. According to Will, founders over 40 bring unmatched domain expertise, resilience, and clarity. The data supports it, and he shares why experience gives mid-career professionals an overlooked edge that younger founders simply can't replicate.What's Will's top advice for solopreneurs who want to use AI or no-code tools?He stresses that AI can help you build prototypes fast, but not without structure, constraints, and actual expertise guiding it. He breaks down why you can't “speak” a fully functional app into existence, how to think like a builder instead of a coder, and why you should ship an MVP that's slightly embarrassing.
There's often a misconception when it comes to figuring out what you'll be taxed on in your business. This is normally referred to as your net income. Many business owners will take a look at their business bank account and think this is the number they will use for their net income or what they will be paying taxes on, but it isn't an accurate way to look at it, and it causes a lot of problems, especially if that bank account balance is lower than the actual net income. I've heard many times that business owners don't think they will owe much for taxes because they only have a small dollar amount in their bank account. In today's podcast episode, I cover some of the main reasons why there may be a gap between your bank balance and your net income. It may seem like your bank balance would be an accurate way to tell what you'll be paying taxes on, but you'll find out today what can cause this number to not match what your true profit and loss or net income amount. Whether you are starting a business or side hustle, you're a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper or accountant, a virtual assistant or VA, or other professional, when you are trying to figure out what you're tax liability will be based on, I want you to make sure you are as prepared as possible for filing your taxes, and you don't have any surprises pop up… Join us in a community built specifically for accountants and high-stress professionals.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a law firm owner looking for ways to integrate AI into your firm? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson interviews Billie, a law firm owner and legal tech entrepreneur, about the rapid changes in the legal industry. They discuss the challenges of managing law firm operations, experimenting with side projects like the Modern Divorce Navigator, and the impact of AI and venture capital on legal services.Billie shares how AI can increase efficiency in the legal space. There is a current shortage of lawyers and because of this, many people are unrepresented or are having a hard time finding a lawyer. AI has the ability to transform the legal practice and allow lawyers to represent more people and cut down their processes and systems to provide them the time to do it.Billie and Tyson chat about how AI can handle client communications. It can really change the intake system and do tasks like handling client calls. Training AI to handle client inquiries can make things easier for lawyers who might not have the time to respond to clients when needed. It would be great for AI to read client files and provide updates. Though this could be very intrusive and take tasks away from admin staff or paralegals, it is a great way to cut down on firms that are extremely overwhelmed.Listen in to learn more!2:17 Modern Divorce Navigator: Concept & Failure 5:01 Recognizing When to Quit5:37 Law Firm Owners & Side Projects 9:30 AI's Role in Access to Justice10:19 AI, Fees, and the Legal Market 16:27 Challenges of Law Firm Acquisitions18:44 Legal Tech Investment & AI Tools21:05 Building vs. Buying Legal Tech23:31 Rapid AI Advancements & Future Predictions 30:40 Staffing Adjustments & Role Evolution37:34 AI for Current Clients & Future Potential 42:30 Hiring a House Manager: Challenges & TipsTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.

Have you ever noticed that some problems just move into your life, and it never feels like they'll ever be solved? They take over your life, and you tell yourself things like, “Ugh. I don't have the energy to deal with this right now.” So you let them stay in your life. Before you know it, the days you are dealing with these problems turn into months, and months turn into “I guess this is just how my life is now.” Today I want to talk to you about those kinds of problems. The ones you've just decided to accept, even though deep down, you know you could solve them. The ones you think are “too big,” “too complicated,” or “too exhausting” to figure out. And if you're an accountant or a high-stress professional, I already know you have at least one of these floating around in your life. How do I know this? Because I've been there myself. Maybe you're dealing with a problem at work. It could be something that takes up a big chunk of your time every single day, but you haven't changed because “that's how we've always done it.” Maybe it's a habit, procrastinating on big projects, snacking on junk food late at night because you're too tired to cook something healthy, scrolling at night when you know you need sleep. Maybe it's a relationship you're not happy with. It could be with a client, a coworker, or a family member, and you continue to tiptoe around it because solving it feels like it is going to be hard or messy. Whatever you're dealing with, I want to help you understand one thing today. You can solve your problems. You're supposed to solve your problems. And solving them opens the door to opportunities you don't even see yet. This is the work we do inside The RE*INVENTION™ Process, not because solving problems is the point, but because solving problems is what creates the life you actually want.

It's no secret I'm a full-on AI skeptic. And while I still use it, I'm very, very worried about the long-term effects of overuse. I saw a number of stories over the summer that point to us losing our ability to connect with other people.We've decided that efficiency and productivity are more important than everything, including accuracy and trust. That we've decided to implicitly trust something made wholly by other people, some of whom don't fully understand what their creation does.Here's my approach to AI, how we can be better, and my hopes for 2026.And if you want to save time without giving up your humanity, check out my automations at https://streamlined.fm/quizShow NotesWe're giving up too much to AIDon't Rely on AI for Human Growth and HealingParents of teenager who took his own life sue OpenAIMeta's AI rules let bots hold ‘sensual' chats with childrenWe are rushing into the same mistakes we made with social mediaFaster Doesn't Mean Better.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a business owner looking for tips on improving email marketing? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson interviews email marketing expert Jay Schwedelson, founder of SubjectLine.com, to discuss data-driven strategies for boosting email engagement. Jay shares actionable tips on crafting attention-grabbing subject lines, debunks common myths about spam filters, and highlights the importance of growing a targeted email database. Jay provides some tips for creating interesting subject lines for emails. One thing to consider is using white space. This includes having a subject line and then a pre header. A pre header is a second subject line and is usually in grey text. With this tactic, many people are intrigued because there is so much open space that they wonder what the email is about. For Jay, this saw open rates increase by 25%.Jay and Tyson chat about the key metrics for email marketing. One metric is to understand your target audience through developing an Ideal Customer Profile (ICP). This is creating a description for the ideal customer who will benefit from your business. Identifying your ICP will help a business tailor their marketing. Another metric is focusing on the database and how to grow it. This can include hiring the right people to work on improving your database and knowing what to add to it and remove from it.Listen to learn more!4:52 Why Email Still Dominates in the Age of AI6:27 The Value of Unsubscribes10:29 Emotion vs. Logic in Subject Lines & CTAs12:30 Vanity Metrics: The Truth About Open Rates18:43 The Power of White Space in the Inbox23:12 The Most Important Metric for 2026: Database Growth24:30 Email Frequency & Relevancy for Lawyers 27:18 The Future of Email: ChatGPT Atlas Browser29:21 Closing Plugs & Contact InformationTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.
