Hey there, welcome back to another episode of the Scalable Law Podcast! Today, we're diving into a topic that so many law firm owners find challenging—setting financial goals. Let's be honest; managing the business side of your practice can feel overwhelming, especially when you're wearing all the hats! In this episode, we're unpacking why setting financial goals is such a hurdle for many law firm owners and, more importantly, exploring practical steps you can take to turn this challenge into an opportunity. From the common struggles like lack of financial literacy and getting lost in the daily grind, to powerful law firm marketing strategies that will help you gain control of your firm's financial direction—I've got you covered. Taking Charge of Your Law Firm's Financial Future! We'll explore: Why financial planning feels daunting for many law firm owners: Law firm owners often lack business training, making financial planning seem overwhelming. Juggling client work and daily tasks leaves little room for strategic goal-setting.The simple yet effective steps you can take to set realistic financial goals: Start with small, achievable targets like increasing case values or cutting costs. Regularly schedule financial planning sessions to turn goal-setting into a consistent practice.How to use data to drive decisions and measure your success: Leverage your firm's data from practice management tools to set realistic goals and track progress. Metrics like revenue per matter and client acquisition costs provide clear direction.The power of starting small, celebrating wins, and embracing accountability: Set manageable goals, celebrate your progress, and share your targets with a mentor or coach. Accountability and recognition keep you motivated and on track toward bigger financial achievements. Don't let financial planning hold you back. Let's talk about how we can turn your financial aspirations into actionable steps for success. Book a free strategy call with me today! Tune in now and let's get started!

I've had a number of guests on this show speaking about leadership. A large part of this is that I'm very interested in the subject. But I also feel that this is a skill set that is often neglected in the legal profession. As lawyers, we learn a lot about our craft in law school and even more once we are in practice. As professionals, we are taught to analyze the law and help our clients to identify legal risks. Our job is to be skeptical and to apply dispassionate reasoning to the situation so that our clients can protect themselves from legal exposure and comply with the law. We work to get our clients the best possible outcome whether it is in a litigation matter or in a corporate or real estate deal. We help our clients to achieve their personal or business objectives in a way that avoids legal risk or accomplishes their legal objectives. But the same skills that we cultivate in practicing law can interfere with our ability to be an effective leader. Whether you are a managing partner, a practice group leader, running your own law firm, serving as a general counsel, or managing other members of the legal team as an assistant general counsel, you need a different skill set to be successful. In particular, emotional intelligence is one skill that you need to cultivate in order to be successful in a leadership role. In this episode, Susan Schwartz provides great insights on that subject. Susan Schwartz is a leadership coach and management consultant. She equips technical experts and teams with the skills they need to become excellent leaders. Her tagline is : Transforming expert professionals into emotionally intelligent leaders.

Embrace the Power of Organic Marketing The cornerstone of any effective marketing plan for law firm lies in leveraging organic marketing strategies. These cost-effective tactics not only enhance your firm's visibility but also establish your credibility and foster trust with your potential clients.

By creating articles and blog posts rich in SEO, you address your clients' queries and climb the SEO ladder, making your firm the first choice for legal advice. Engaging on Free Platforms: Utilise free online directories and platforms like Avvo, Yelp, and Local Search. These sites can propel your visibility, thanks to their high domain authority.

Educational Content: Demystify legal processes and share knowledge through webinars, newsletters, and informative posts. Educating your audience is a subtle yet powerful marketing strategy. Social Media Presence: Your clients are on social media, and so should you. A consistent, engaging social media strategy can transform your firm's reach and client engagement.

Optimised Email Signatures: Turn every email into a marketing opportunity with a well-designed email signature that includes your contact information, social links, and current offers. Community Engagement: Nothing beats the authenticity and connection of community involvement.

It is axiomatic that if you want to have a successful legal career, you need to learn your craft. Most areas of legal practice require highly refined analytical abilities coupled with good judgment. For the most part, the first developmental task of any new lawyer is to learn how to practice law. But if you want to advance in your career, you need to be more than a good technician. Demonstrating executive presence is also key. In this episode, I am pleased to introduce John Buckley, Board Secretary and General Counsel for the North Carolina operations of a multinational mobility infrastructure company. John talks about how building your executive presence is critical to advancing your career, especially if you want to want to take on leadership responsibilities. In a great conversation, John discusses what executive presence is, who needs it, and what it looks like. He offers his practical tips on how increase your own executive presence. Over the summer, I heard John give a great presentation on this topic for the American Bar Association and I decided I had to have him on the show. Lucky for me, he accepted my invitation right away. John Buckley has served 3 times as the first in-house counsel for start-ups. He has 15 years of solo/small law department General Counsel experience. He began his professional life as an engineer for Duke Power. Additional Resources Ted Lasso (

Gary has held the record for the highest jury verdicts in numerous courthouses, including a staggering $125 million-dollar jury verdict in Ventura County in 2016. He went directly from high school to law school, never attending college. He put himself through a four-year night program while working at a law office, where he started as a file room clerk.

Achieving partnership was once the goal of most law firm associates. The rules were relatively simple. Work hard, do a good job, and after several years, get rewarded by being elevated. Today the law firms are more complex. Many associates entering the practice of law do not aspire to become partners, at least not at the first firm they join. And at many firms, there are different paths to success which don't include equity partnership. So, how should a young associate navigate these new realities? What is the path to partnership in the 2020s and what are other ways to define success in private practice. How do you get there? What is the impact of hybrid work arrangements on career advancement and professional development? My guest Laura Terrell has some answers. Laura Terrell is an executive coach with over 25 years of professional experience as a legal and business leader. Prior to launching her coaching practice, Laura was a Special Assistant to the President at the White House, a senior level appointee at the US Department of Justice, an equity partner in two large global law firms, and in-house counsel at a major global consulting and business advisory firm. Laura has led and managed teams of hundreds of people across multiple countries and has been a top advisor for many Fortune 500 and FTSE 100 companies. Her clients come from a wide variety of industries, including law, education, financial services, pharmaceutical, oil & gas, non-profit, health care, and technology. Some of them are senior corporate executives like CEOs and general counsels; others are lawyers and consultants, entrepreneurs, and small business owners, as well as professionals who may be returning to the workforce, making a pivot to a new career, or switching roles mid-career. Laura is my favorite kind of guest because she has such a broad perspective on the legal industry and has experienced legal careers from all sides.

Greetings from the beautiful Bali, where I'm currently enjoying a much-needed vacation. But what makes this vacation even more special?

Welcome to another episode of our law firm marketing podcast, designed especially for you - whether you're an owner of a small-to-medium law firm or a lawyer with the ambition to start your practice. This podcast is your companion on that journey. In the last episode, "7 Things That Don't Work When It Comes to Your Law Firm's Digital Marketing", we explored strategies that have proven less than fruitful in today's digital marketing landscape. Now, let's discuss the strategies that do work, that should be part of your marketing plan for a law firm: 1. Google Ads: Our journey begins with a powerhouse player – Google Ads. Here's a law firm marketing plan example from my own experience: we run a well-oiled law firm marketing funnel on Google Ads, which consistently brings in a stream of clients. Don't fret about getting into the nitty-gritty of it - outsourcing to a reliable agency can save you time and stress. But the golden rule? Strategy, mates! You gotta have the right one. We'll begin by diving into Google Ads, a resource that can drive a consistent flow of clients to your firm when used correctly. 2. Content Marketing: Wondering how to make a law firm marketing plan that speaks directly to your ideal client? Say g'day to content marketing. Picture this - you're delivering value, becoming an industry guru, and boosting your SEO all at once. Whether it's a podcast, blog, or video, keep it fresh and regular, and watch your brand skyrocket. Moving on, we will discuss the power of content marketing and how it can be used to connect with your ideal clients. 3. SEO and Website Visibility: Next on our list of law firm marketing ideas is ensuring you're visible. That means the front page of Google, is not buried in the back. SEO's the name of the game here, but it's a tricky beast. You need the right experts on board to keep you sailing smoothly in these competitive waters. We'll stress the importance of website visibility and how essential SEO is to ensure your firm lands on the front page of Google search results. 4. Social Media: Social media can be a treasure trove of potential clients if you know how to navigate. Remember, not all platforms will yield gold for every practice area. Be smart, go where your clients are. We'll navigate the various social media platforms and provide tips on how to target your marketing efforts effectively. 5. Online Reviews and Reputation Management: Lastly, we touch on the power of Google reviews. A good review is like a glowing endorsement that not only boosts your SEO but also provides hard-to-beat social proof. And if you do hit a rough patch with a negative review, no worries! We'll guide you on how to turn that around into an opportunity. We'll look into the significance of online reviews, especially Google reviews, and how to manage them effectively.

Shownotes can be found at https://www.profitwithlaw.com/387.There's no one-size-fits-all marketing formula to marketing a law firm. In the legal field, as in any business, failure is a part of the journey. However, rather than viewing setbacks as defeats, see them as opportunities for growth and improvement. Analyze your mistakes, learn from them, and dust yourself off. With diligence and putting trust in the process, your law firm's growth potential is limitless.In this episode, Luke Russell joins us to discuss why it's okay for law firms to fail in their marketing ventures. He emphasizes that the key is finding a marketing strategy you genuinely enjoy. He also encourages us to use social media as a relationship-building tool, not a channel for getting attention. Most importantly, Luke urges lawyers to embrace experimentation, recognizing that failure is integral to successfully marketing a law firm.If you want to know how to start building a marketing approach that captures your personal values and your firm's brand, this episode is for you.00:00 Introduction4:55 Luke's Beginnings7:18 Getting into the Legal Field10:57 The Business Problem We Need to Solve in the Legal Field in Relation to Mental Health12:53 Entrepreneurial Frustrations as a Lawyer15:52 Navigating Business and Marketing as a Lawyer18:44 Doing YouTube25:51 Pulling the Plug When Something's Not Working28:32 Perfectionism vs. Diligence in Marketing a Law Firm33:21 Luke's Parting Piece of AdviceResources mentioned:Subscribe to Profit with Law's Youtube channel for exclusive content!Want to implement what you've learnt in this episode?

We're celebrating our 100th episode and two-year anniversary of Your Law Firm is a Business. Take it to the Next Level, and we're incredibly grateful for the support from all of our listeners! To show our appreciation, we're joined by Corine Rogers, the problem solver extraordinaire at Streamlined Legal, to answer some great listener questions that have come in. Listen in as we discuss the challenges and rewards of growing a law firm and how to navigate the new obstacles that come with it. Growth presents new challenges, but that's a sign of progress. We discuss how some aspects of running a business may get easier with repetition, but new levels of growth often bring new difficulties. Just as with parenting, we find that in business, it's not necessarily that it gets easier, but rather a different type of hardship. We also explore the importance of having team members who are motivated to challenge themselves and grow with the business and the need for holding people accountable with objective measures and metrics. Finally, we touch on the importance of understanding and utilizing the software at our disposal and how it can help us manage our growing firms more efficiently. We discuss the challenges of outgrowing software and how to approach making changes to your processes and systems to avoid having to switch to a new platform. So, tune in and gain valuable insights as we share our experiences and advice on taking your law firm to the next level! Show Highlights: Celebrating growth and overcoming challenges in a law firm business. Surrounding yourself with motivated team members to challenge themselves and grow with the business. Holding people accountable through objective measures and metrics. Utilizing software to manage growth efficiently in a law firm. Testing business processes by going on vacation to see how the firm runs without you. Building checklists and processes for when things break and learning from the experience. Achieving a mindset shift to understand that not every outcome will be perfect, but aiming for a majority of satisfied clients and employees.

When it comes to sales, people want to know there is something unique, but they need to know the full value.Most people do not know how to delegate, and lawyers are not any different. Becoming the master delegator is the key to growing your business.You are in absolute control of your future. "There's a difference between a unique selling proposition and a value proposition.

In this episode, I speak with Ben Sachs of the Landing Group. Ben is the author of a terrific new book entitled: All Rise-Practical Tools for Building High-performance Legal Teams. In the conclusion of the book Ben writes: For many attorneys, the legal work is their comfort zone. They would rather be consumed by case law, deal papers, policy memos, or other traditional billable tasks then have to navigate a tricky issue of team dynamics or dysfunction. In this episode, Ben addresses those issues head on and why good leaders need to change these attitudes. He also talks about his own alternative legal career. Ben Sachs is President of The Landing Group. He is an expert in management, strategy, negotiation, and communication. He serves on the teaching faculty of the University of Virginia School of Law, offering courses on negotiation, public speaking, and legal ethics. Ben also provides consulting and training services for government and private sector organizations in the United States and internationally.

Law Firm Digital Marketing Made Easy: The Only Book You'll Ever Need to Become A Best-Known Attorney by Josh Konigsberg People don't hire or retain a logo, an office, or a website. They retain an attorney they know, like, and trust. The old way of doing business and relying on referrals is antiquated and simply will not facilitate consistent reliable leads. As digital marketing has become more complex and the market flooded with over 30,000 new attorneys every year, it's more important than ever to understand and leverage the digital marketing principles essential to a law firm's success. Being a best-known attorney means to stand out among your peers in your area(s) of law in your market. You must amplify your unique selling proposition, present yourself in a dynamic, unforgettable way, have the best reputation, and strive to achieve online omnipresence. Once you set the foundation of your message, market, and media and apply the various facets of digital marketing effectively, you will become a best-known attorney. If you don't, your competitors will.

Are you missing out on new clients because you're stuck in an old way of thinking about your marketing? Mark Homer, CEO of GNGF (Get Noticed Get Found), is here to share his top five marketing strategies for 2022 and beyond. Mark's full-service marketing agency strives to put the law firm back in law firm marketing. Mark believes that most law firm business owners are almost accidental entrepreneurs. They started their firm to practice law and then realized at some point along the way they were running a business, which requires finance, operations, HR, and marketing. Even if you're not spending a dime on marketing, you should track and measure where your leads originate. Are they coming from Google? Are they coming from referral partners? Do you have a clearly defined intake process? Measuring and tracking leads falls apart when you don't have a clearly defined intake process. Creating and defining your intake process is a better use of your time and resources in the short term than throwing more money at marketing and leads. We spend a good deal of time talking about the impact of Google on your law firm marketing. Mark shares tips for getting the most out of your Google Business Profile and why you should be treating Google like a valued referral partner. Learn what steps, tools, and processes you should have in place before you spend your first dollar on marketing. What You Will Learn How intake fits into your marketing strategy Simple practices to dominate your firm name online How to get the most out of your digital marketing How to make Google your best referral partner What you need to know about your Google Business Profile Links and Resources Mark's Facebook https://www.facebook.com/markhomer GNGF's Facebook https://www.facebook.com/GNGFound Mark's LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/markhomer/ GNGF's LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/gngf Your Law Firm is a Business Take it to the Next Level podcast https://nextlevel.legal/ Mark's book - Online Law Practice Strategies https://www.amazon.com/Online-Law-Practice-Strategies-Clients-ebook/dp/B076J6S3J9/ref=sr_1_3?crid=T5LC587AJ3P8&keywords=online+law+practice+strategies&qid=1643203615&s=books&sprefix=online+law+prac%2Cstripbooks%2C92&sr=1-3 Connect with Molly Hiring & Empowering Solutions on Facebook www.hiringandempowering.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/molly-hall

Eric Farber, attorney and writer, visits the Technically Legal Podcast to talk about Creators Legal, a LegalZoom like app for creators and those in the entertainment industry. Creators Legal offers self serve industry contracts drafted by experienced lawyers. It makes sense that Eric launched a legal tech company for creative types. He started his career in the entertainment industry working for a talent agency and then headed up business affairs for a movie studio. Ultimately he moved to private practice and represented entertainers and athletes. In fact for many years, he represented Amaru Entertainment which released Tupac Shakur's posthumous music. In 2008, with the economy in shambles, Eric, like many, had to pivot and launched Pacific Workers which was initially a workers compensation law firm for athletes, but later came to represent workers from all fields. So, how is that Eric decided to launch a legal tech company? One of Eric's law clerks pointed out that Eric always had great business advice, but he never used it himself. That comment resonated with Eric and that's when he decided to launch Creators Legal. Based on his experience in the entertainment world, he knew the vast majority of those creating art and intellectual property could not afford proper legal representation to protect their rights. What Eric saw is an access to justice issue and set out to do something about it. The result is a site that creators can go to and find legal documents to help them protect their rights and create businesses around their art. Although historically Eric was on the legal side of the entertainment industry, he is also a creator. He wrote a book a couple of years ago called The Case for Culture: How to Stop Being a Slave to Your Law Firm, Grow Your Practice, and Actually Be Happy.

Experience as an associate in an established law firm will also be beneficial for your skills development. Such experience can also help you realize what field of law to focus on if you haven't settled on one yet. But sometimes, working for bigger law firms means losing control of your own time. You might not have the liberty or authority to improve the firm's operations either. All these problems may lead you to want to start your own practice. But, how can you start a practice right after school and passing the bar? After all, law school doesn't teach the business side of running a law firm. In this episode, Moshe Amsel is joined by Chris Guymon, a family law lawyer who built a successful practice right after law school. They discuss everything about building a practice — from determining which field of law to focus on to streamlining your operations. Chris also talks about how he manages his firm while continuing to be a dedicated family man. Tune in to this episode if you're thinking of building your own practice or improving it!

Shownotes can be found at https://www.profitwithlaw.com/232. We don't talk about profitability of law firms enough. Lawyers usually avoid this topic because they are afraid to hear it. They do not want to even think about numbers on top of their regular work. And yet, gaining profit from business is what's going to help you grow your firm to where you want it to be. Therefore, attorneys should not shy away from a numbers conversation. You need to learn how to talk about it, and it is all the more important to understand it. In this week's episode, Brooke Lively joins Moshe Amsel to tell us all about the important numbers you should be monitoring. She shares how you can keep track of them and discusses the things that lawyers are usually afraid of. Lastly, she talks about the importance of being transparent and communicating with your clients.

Do you know how many billable hours you can devote to a new case? Or whether you need to add another attorney to your firm? Can you afford to take time off from your practice, and if so, how much? If you're one of the lawyers who is kept up at night with worries about your firm's finances, you are not alone. Financial consultant Brooke Lively says that law school does not prepare most people for the business side of the practice of law. Through her work with attorneys and firms, she's identified six key numbers that can tell the health of a law practice and identify what next steps a firm needs to take.

On this episode of The Legal Toolkit, your host, Jared Correia, invites Jordan Furlong to discuss how the legal marketplace is changing and how law firms can react. “In the short term,” Furlong begins, “we're going to see a lot more regulatory reform ending in a small set of really advanced legal services, exclusive to lawyers.” Jordan goes on to prognosticate respecting the specific effects that changes will have upon solo and small firm attorneys, law students and law schools. Despite the disruptive change that will continue to take place in the practice of law, Jordan does, in the long term, see the light at the end of the tunnel for the redefined attorney. Jordan Furlong is a lawyer, speaker, and consultant based in Canada. He specializes in giving thought-provoking presentations covering the future of the legal marketplace and how to assimilate. Before working as a consultant and speaker, he edited top legal publications, including The Canadian Bar Association's magazine National and The Lawyer's Weekly. Currently he writes the blog, Law21: Dispatches from a Legal Profession on the Brink, a multiple ABA Blawg 100 honoree. His latest book, Evolutionary Road: A Strategic Guide to Your Law Firm's Future, is available from Attorney at Work. Tune in to hear more on the future of legal services: how these will be created, priced, and delivered, and how lawyers can take advantage of the changes.
I spoke with Jordan Furlong, an Ottawa-based lawyer, writer, and legal industry analyst, who is a partner with Edge International Consulting. Jordan is also the author of Evolutionary Road: A Strategic Guide to Your Law Firm's Future, an e-book published by Attorney at Work. We discussed his background and the focus of his work at Edge, as well as what inspired him to write Evolutionary Road. He shared his thoughts on the distinction between sustaining innovation vs. disruptive technology, and the impact of each on the legal market. “Disruptive technology will open new doors for us,” he predicts. Furlong cautions that “This is not a period of incremental adjustment; it is a period of significant change.” He suggests that law firm leaders engage in two exercises to help their management teams consider key steps to take to accelerate their progress: Imagine that you are starting a law firm from scratch – how would you design it knowing that you have none of the constraints of the traditional paradigm? If your largest competitor or rival hired you away from your firm with the mission of destroying your former employer, what steps would you take? He concludes that “Firms must recognize that the way in which they have done business in the past is not the way they will do business n the future.”
