Why Solicitors Should Spend More Money On Ads

I mentioned in my last blog post two weeks ago that if you are using Google Ads to market your law firm and doing it properly, the only question you should ever be asking is “How can I spend more money with Google?”

21 Reasons For Law Firms To Use Google Ads

I said I would expand on this point – so here I go.

If you are using Google Ads correctly, you will be making more money than you spend my many multiples.

This is usually at least three times what you spend, often as much as ten times.

So if you are spending £1,000 a month on Ads and generating £10,000 in fees, the only logical question has to be this, doesn’t it?

“How can I spend £2,000, £3,000 or £5,000?”

I accept that there might be a cash flow issue, but that aside, why wouldn’t you increase your spend?

The good news here is that often when you increase your spend the enquiries for your services actually increase by a bigger proportion than your increased budget.

Why?

Usually because most budgets run out on some days. For example, if you have a daily budget of £30 a day and your average cost per click is £1, 30 clicks on any given day means that your advertisements stop showing.

This is a big problem though, as some clients will look at your advertisement and website two or three times before taking action. If your advertisements have stopped showing because your budget has run out, they won’t find you again when they come back, but they will find your competitors.

It is for this reason that I have seen the doubling of an Ads budget lead to a trebling of enquiries.

Exciting, yes?

I know I was excited, and my client was thrilled. Obviously, as a solicitor, they didn’t jump up and down, but I know inside they were doing just that.

So my question for you is this – can you spend more money on your Ads campaign?

As a medium sized Law Firm we have been dealing with Nick for a good few years now – his assistance and support delivered in a friendly but professional way has been invaluable; added to this, coming from a legal background he has a firm understanding of what solicitors require.

At our initial meeting with Nick he advised on various marketing strategies including simple changes to our website that would enhance traffic to the site.

We are now working on a new marketing project and know, as always, we are in safe hands.

Brilliant, insightful and a great discussion. Nick certainly knows his stuff and makes you feel at ease.

Michael Birch

Less than a year ago I asked Nick to help me grow our practice by making the telephone ring.

He’s certainly done that and much more.

The improvements are incredible and Nick has guided me through the many challenges of scaling up, not least the need for a client focused approach.

This has allowed me to start the next phase; organising the practice to ensure a better lifestyle balance for all of us, whilst we continue to grow.

As the owner of a small to medium-sized law firm, I have found that Samson Consulting’s Marketing4Solicitors monthly newsletter has proved absolutely invaluable throughout the last three years or so. Of all the marketing advice I’ve had over the years, this has proved by far the best value – bringing us tens of thousand of pounds of extra work every year.

One of the best tricks Nick Jervis [who owns Samson Consulting] uses, is not only to identify the kind of marketing actions a small or medium-sized business can take themselves, but he also explains why it works and most importantly then takes you through, step-by-step exactly what you need to do. As someone who is passionate about growing my business, I really look forward to receiving Nick’s excellent newsletter every month.

It’s worth pointing out that initially I was sceptical about his promises – so many marketing businesses promise the earth. But within a couple of months I was absolutely convinced he was right and I have been hooked ever since.

I recommend Nick Jervis and Samson Consulting without any hesitation whatsoever.
