Train the trainer program
We help each individual to identify the action items that are most likely to produce immediate and practical results for their practice, their personality and their schedule. Our proprietary process helps lawyers to make the best use of their limited marketing time by building on best practices from other law firms and other professions. For example:
We help lawyers decide how to increase
new business with individual clients
by reviewing a list of best practices
that have worked for others (on page
30 of The LegalBizDev Desk Reference).
We don't just tell lawyers that listening
is important, we provide them with an
list of questions in five categories,
so that each attorney can quickly customize
two or three questions to fit a particular
situation (p. 88)
We don't just tell lawyers that the
general principles behind elevator speeches,
we give them a six step worksheet to
quickly create their own (p. 53)
