I have a blog!
For those solicitors who cannot wait for my monthly newsletter, I have launched a blog.
Bite-Size 1 hour CPD webinars
Over the coming year I will be running a series of one hour CPD webinars for solicitors covering topics like Improving cross-selling, How to network effectively, How to develop a niche and specialise, etc.
2 Hour cross-selling/how to network seminars
The bite-size 2 hour cross-selling/how to network seminars are continuing in 2008. Starting in Feb in the south-west and progressing up the west side of the country. If you are on the east and missed me first time around, please let me know asap.
Marvin's Magic Moment
Seriously, I am launching two projects early in 2007. The first is the "bite-size" seminar. This will take the form of a 2 hour marketing workshop and will cover the most popular questions I'm asked eg How to implement cross-selling within the firm, how to network more effectively, how to implement a marketing culture, etc. Starting in February 2007, please watch for details of the one nearest to you. And where does the magic moment come from? At a recent "dry run" of my workshop, a wag in the audience called out, "When's the next magic moment"? So, I guess it has stuck.
What form of marketing has given the best results?
Have you ever wondered what form of marketing has given the best results? Like most other lawfirms, you probably have a fixed marketing budget and ponder where should it be spent. Well to help in your decision making I am introducing a page where you can place your vote. In addition you will be able to view in "real-time" exactly how other lawyers have voted.
Solicitors will be allowed to pay referral fees early in 2004
The ruling council of the Law Society moved towards allowing lawyers to compete on a level playing field when they voted to allow referral fees at a meeting on Thursday 18 December 2003. Now solicitors can be more commercial and open about the referral arrangements that have existed for some time already in the profession. Without them, solicitors could not continue to be competitive.
The Daily Mail printed the following article: Coming Soon, Door-to-Door Lawyers
"The burgeoning compensation culture is set to expand further after plans to allow lawyers a free hand to attract clients were unveiled yesterday.
