Growing Your Law Firm Before It Is Too Late…

How on earth did this happen?!

Yesterday I was going about my business as usual, then just a few hours later, or so it seems, yesterday is 18 years ago. How on earth did that happen?

Time Flies When It Comes To Your Law Firm Growth
My (now) 18 year old daughter

What am I talking about?

My daughter is 18 today and in equal measures it both excites me and it terrifies me. It feels like only yesterday that I was at the hospital holding her in my arms (to be fair I was actually prizing her away from worryingly incompetent hospital staff, but that is another matter).

It excites me because I am very excited for her. She can’t wait to be an ‘adult’ (I will ask her how it feels as I am still waiting too). She’s looking forward to completing her ‘A’ levels, going to university and enjoying life. There’s so much for her to look forward to.

It terrifies me from my perspective because I cannot understand how those 18 years have passed by so quickly.

When she was born I was a practising solicitor, yet within 4 years I had left the law and set up my consultancy, which has now been running for 14 years this July.

Tempus really does fugit.

This applies to your personal life and especially to your business life.

What are you ‘planning to do’ to make your business a success that just hasn’t happened yet because you haven’t ‘got round to it’?

What excuses are you making?

If you’re not careful, one day you’ll wake up, and you’ll be five or ten years older with the same turnover, the same backbreaking hours and the same dreams for your law firm growth. Trouble is, they’ll seem even more daunting than they do right now, and if nothing’s changed, you won’t be any closer to reaching them.

Is it time to take action? Can you use my terrifying experience as a wakeup call for you to take action? I hope so, as then my grey hairs will all be worthwhile.

Anyway, I better run: I’m taking my daughter out for an expensive steak meal tonight. I know it will be expensive because she chose the restaurant. She is well worth it though!

Legal Marketing Services

Case Study

Now I’ve got eight staff and two offices, and we’ve never been busier.

I’ve been working with Nick for the last six years, and in that time he’s had a significant impact on my business.

We first start working together when I worked at an employment law practice, and when I left there to set up on my own, Nick was one of the first people I called.

I knew that one of the key pieces to get right was the website – in this day and age it’s impossible to run a successful firm without one – and with Nick’s advice, help and guidance, we created our own marketing-focused site that has proven to be the backbone of all the sales and marketing that has followed.

But a good website means nothing unless people see it, and that’s why we turned to Nick to run our Google Adwords, which quickly became a primary source of leads.

In addition to running the traffic, Nick held our hand through every element of the client attraction process, from how to communicate with leads, to how to close sales, and the impact that had on our business cannot be understated.

And that’s why I will always recommend Nick to anyone who needs help with marketing – particularly legal firms: his breadth of knowledge about everything to do with sales and marketing means that he can (and does) help with every part of the picture, resulting in a stronger business than you could have imagined.

Since we’ve been working with Nick, we’ve grown quickly – back in 2013 it was just myself and my wife, and she was part-time.

Now I’ve got eight staff and two offices, and we’ve never been busier.

And if our lead numbers are anything to go by, it’s only going to get better – 2015-2016 saw us get 800 good quality leads in employment law, and that figure more than doubled last year. I can only look forward to more exciting times, working hand-in-hand with Nick to grow my practice and enjoy the fruits that come with that growth.
