Jan. 18 Phoenix Legal Networking Group Event Focuses on Creating a Law Firm Marketing Plan

The Phoenix Legal Networking Group is a group of solo and small firm attorneys looking to effectively market their law firm and grow their businesses.

We meet each month for a couple of hours to enjoy networking with other attorneys at small law firms and participate in a 45-minute practice building workshop.

Our next meeting is Wednesday, January 18, where I will be making a presentation on how to Develop a Law Firm Marketing Plan to Make 2012 Your Best Year Ever. I will lead you through the 5 critical steps of developing a 90 day game plan for marketing your law firm and give you viable options to help you implement your Marketing Action Plan (MAP).

For a nominal fee, you will receive a networking session that begins at 5:30 p.m. and the marketing seminar that begins at 6:45 p.m.  The event will be held at the offices of Target Market Media Publications/Attorney at Law Magazines, 4647 N. 32nd St., Suite B-280 in Phoenix.

Cost is $25 for those who register by Monday, Jan, 16, and $30 after that.

Recessions are an excellent time to ramp up your marketing efforts because it is counterintuitive.  Most firms are pulling back, and your efforts will stand out because many of your competitors have reduced their presence.

You won’t find this kind of information and opportunity at this price anywhere.   Make an investment in your firm’s future and join your fellow legal marketers for this invaluable presentation. The information shared and the networking opportunity can open doors that will allow you take your firm to the next level.

Phoenix Legal Networking Group Nov. 2: Get the Answer to "Why Should I Hire You?"

Do you have an answer to the #1 question prospects are thinking but few ask: Why should I hire you?

If not, you’ll want to attend the November 2 meeting of the Phoenix Legal Networking Group on Wednesday, Nov. 2 from 5:30-7:30 p.m.

When faced with this question, most attorneys fall back on talking about the quality of their services, their experience and the size of their law firm. Prepare to have your eyes opened to the truth:

  • The #1 reason why prospects “shop you on price”
  • How most attorneys completely miss the point when talking about their experience
  • The 4 biggest reasons to emphasize when talking with prospects
  • Overcoming common objections attorneys encounter

The networking event and marketing seminar will be held from 5:30-7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 2 at Target Market Media Publications (Attorney at Law Magazines), 4647 N. 32nd St., Suite B-280 in Phoenix.

Cost is $20 if you register by Oct. 31, $30 if you register by Nov. 1 and $35 on the day of the event.  This covers drinks, hors d’oeurves, the networking event and the workshop.

What's different about this networking group from others?

First and foremost, it's for attorneys. While attorneys from all size law firms are welcome, it is specifically designed to help lawyers in small and solo practices to connect with one another and share referrals.

Second, there is an educational component at each event. Not MCLE or about substantive matters of law, but about how to build your business, make more money, generate more referrals, and run your practice like a business. We invite all local Arizona attorneys to join us each month. Upcoming topics will include:

  • Practical ways to run your law firm like a business
  • Generate more and better referrals
  • Lessons from 7 figure attorneys
  • Automating your online marketing efforts
  • Increase your revenues and improve your receivables
  • Take consistent action to build your business
  • How to fix your follow up with every prospect, client and referral source
  • Tools to increase referrals from CPAs, CFPs and other attorneys

Phoenix Legal Networking Group August 24: A Check-Up From the Neck Up

We are coming into the final stretch of 2011...are you generating more leads and referrals now than you were in the spring?

Are you achieving the goals you set for yourself back in January?

Is your team implementing the strategies you planned?

Do you have a written game plan for the next 90 days?

Or do you need a “check-up from the neck up”? Does your firm need to make a course correction and get back on track with your marketing efforts? Are you even on the right track? As Will Rogers once said, "Even if you are on the right track, you're at high risk for getting run over if you just sit there."

Races are often won or lost in the last stretch. Far too many attorneys have a tendency to relax or rest on their laurels (or their latest award) coming into the home stretch.

Now is not the time to take it easy or sit on the sidelines!

Now is the time to refocus, reconnect, and finish this year strong!

Join us at the August 24 meeting of the Phoenix Legal Networking Group and discover:

  • How to motivate yourself and your team to finish this year strong!
  • Getting back to basics: 5 easy steps to create a powerful Marketing Action Plan (MAP)
  • Practical steps to help you and your staff implement your marketing plan
  • How to reconnect with referral sources and rebuild your pipeline of leads

The networking event and marketing seminar will be held from 5:30-7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 24 at Ticoz, 5114 N. 7th St. in Phoenix.

Cost is $25 if you register by Aug. 22, $30 if you register by Aug. 23 and $35 on the day of the event.  This covers drinks, hors d’oeurves, the networking event and the workshop.

To register for our Aug. 24 networking and legal marketing event, co-hosted by Attorney at Law Magazine, Coash & Coash Court Reporting and The Rainmaker Institute, visit www.therainmakerretreat.com/network or call 888-816-8935.

 

Phoenix Legal Networking Group: Learn Ways To Effectively Market And Grow Your Law Firm

On Tuesday, May 24, I will be making a law firm marketing presentation on Generating More Referrals from Attorneys, CPAs, Financial Advisers & Other Professionals at the monthly meeting of the Phoenix Legal Networking Group.

Every lawyer wants to say they have a “referral based” practice. For many attorneys, a large percentage of their practice comes from referrals from current and former clients, but how do you generate more and better referrals from other attorneys, CPAs, financial advisers and other professionals, especially if you can't offer them a referral fee?

I will walk you through the steps of building a network of strategic referral partners. 
You will learn practical skills for:

  • Identifying who the best referral sources are for your practice area
  • 3 ways to get introduced to them
  • How to talk about cross referrals

The networking event and marketing seminar will be held from 5:30-7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, May 24 at Monti’s, 100 S. Mill Ave. in Tempe.

Cost is $25 if you register by May 20, $30 if you register by May 23 and $35 on the day of the event.  This covers drinks, hors d’oeurves, the networking event and the workshop.
