Please excuse this “soap box moment” :-)
Please excuse this “soap box moment” :-) The essence of an effective law firm marketing strategy is as follows. Everything else (websites, social media, etc. are merely the tactics used to deploy this 1,000 year old law firm marketing strategy:
My roof & your law practice
So what does my roof have to do with your law practice? Alot actually. Let me explain...
Not as obvious as you think: Ohio Lawyer Suspended for Billing More than 24 Hours in a Day
Lawyers who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Think about how many hours you've invested learning how to be the best lawyer you can be, and compare that number to the hours you've invested learning how to be the best manager/operator of your law firm's business that you can be. The difference between those two numbers is how much room for improvement there is likely in your own practice

Alexis Martin Neely: NOT Full of Bullshit
So I have to say, there are ALOT of people going around talking alot of bullshit about what they "think" would, could or should work when it comes to marketing & managing a solo or small law firm. And I'm talking about REALLY marketing & managing it. As in doubling your revenues and totally transforming your business and your life.
