Most small law firms are so focused on marketing tactics they don’t even
know what strategy they’re working on. Tactics alone will kill you.
Now I realize that most lawyers - no matter how great of a lawyer you are
- most of us received exactly ZERO exposure to this important concept
(law firm marketing) back in law school. And most CLE programs if they
even cover marketing tend to just toss-out a few well-intentioned tactics.
But trying to insert a good tactic into an already-functioning law firm is
alot like tossing a wrench into the gearbox. At best, if you're going slow
it will grind you to a halt. At worst, if you're already moving and have
some momentum it can kill you.
I've seen alot of small law firms break-down before they even get going
and more than a few crash & burn faster than the owners' imagined
possible from very profitable to laying people off in a hurry all because
of this law practice marketing mistake. Which incidentally, is also a law
practice management mistake too since law practice marketing is part
of law firm management.
An example of a strategy is to create a 50-80% referral-based practice.
Examples of some of the tactics you might deploy as part of that strategy might be the new client intake
procedures, current client communication systems, closed file client retention
& referral steps as well as following certain checklists and office scripts
which ensure consistency and free you and your staff up to be more creative.

Only problem is I SERIOUSLY underestimated demand. So I
ran-out in like two days. So now I'm sending another order to the
printer for a couple hundred extra copies. If you want one too you have
to go to this order form to let me know so I don't run out again:
