Staff Training: Invest Now or Pay Later

Apr 25, 2016

Research shows that staff members who feel valued and prepared perform better, have a much greater retention rate and seek greater opportunities to contribute to the business. Those businesses that fail to properly train staff can have a full list of ills to tackle ranging from a revolving staff door to low productivity. So why […]

Training for Sincerity

Feb 22, 2016

Training staff to do Step 1, Step 2, and Step 3, makes sense. Training staff to really CARE is a challenge. Yet, the more we show our prospects we care, the more they will “feel” it and want to work with us. And by the same token, the more we show our clients we care, […]

What’s working in your law firm? Do you know you Key Performance Indicators?

Feb 27, 2015

If the person writing your paycheck was dyslexic, and is repeatedly transposing numbers, you would check the numbers every pay period, wouldn’t you? Of course you would. Being paid $5200 is a lot different than $2500, isn’t it? Of course it is! Being acutely aware of your firm’s marketing key performance indicators is equally as […]

Is your practice stale? Micromanage the client experience

Oct 23, 2014

When is the last time you looked at your practice with fresh eyes? Too often, we lose sight of the little things that really matter when it comes to making a great first impression. If you have been running your practice for a while or you are just getting started, paying attention to the little […]

Is management a sometimes thing for you?

Apr 14, 2014

I was working with a client who has built a very nice practice for himself. However, he seems to consistently struggle with staff turnover and lack of company morale. Upon an exit survey from a key staff member, he found a rare moment of honesty. His staff told him flat out “you have no systems […]

What chapter are you on in your firm?

Apr 8, 2014

Here’s an autobiography that I believe puts a fine tip on the point I’d like to make. Chapter 1:  I walk down the street.  There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.  I fall in. I am lost … I am helpless.  It isn’t my fault.  It takes forever to find a way out. Chapter […]

Your clients are your greatest source of referrals

Mar 25, 2014

Do you see your clients as magnets for referrals? You should. You want to be able to attract the kind of clients you know, like and trust and who already know, like and trust you. It’s fair to say there’s already a base of clients you are already doing business with who know you, like […]

Are your prospects SHOCKED and AWED? Or are they fast asleep?

Jan 16, 2014

Nothing quite builds loyalty and interest in your company like the Shock and Awe package. What’s a ‘Shock and Awe’ package, you ask? Let me tell you about the latest one I received one quite different than it’s likely you will ever send to your prospects. The other day, the FEDEX guy rang the doorbell […]

Is autonomy in YOUR DNA?

Sep 9, 2013

When I first started working with a Phoenix bankruptcy owner, he was tracking the success of his bankruptcy firm using an Excel spreadsheet and a Word document. He was putting in all the transactions by hand, setting up formulas to add, subtract, divide and so forth. While he ended up with a usable statement for […]

Speed your way to success with this pledge…

Aug 2, 2013

I have an exercise for you. I need you to take a vow. You know the kind where you put your left hand on a bible and the right hand in the air. I’m going to assume you don’t have a bible handy, so raising your right hand will do. Please recite this statement: My […]

A little change can make a big difference

Jul 17, 2013

So many times when I work with clients they think that in order to make a big difference in their practice they need to make big changes. Many times, that’s just not true. Here’s a story I originally heard from Larry Winget that makes my point. One day, when we lived back east, I was […]
