According to the Small Business Administration, it is recommended for businesses of all sizes to have a marketing plan. Beyond word-of-mouth referrals, the process for getting clients in your door can be complicated. Marketing years ago was often simple. Having your name in the yellow pages, in the newspaper, and word-of-mouth were the most common ways to attract clients. In today’s digital and mobile age, there are countless marketing platforms and services to choose from. One thing is for sure, if you don’t have a marketing plan, you could be missing out on opportunities for your firm. So why do Attorneys need marketing?
Unless you have a lot of free time on your hands with your career and family obligations, it makes sense to let someone else handle your marketing needs. Too often attorneys that start out tend to wear many hats. From business and staff management, to accounting and marketing it does not take long for a work week to be full of duties. Not forgetting you have clients to take care of. However, entrusting your marketing to a third party can happen in stages. A great example of this is having a website built vs. building one yourself. A great website is often the foundation of your marketing plan, and can give you a lot of flexibility in the usage of your time. A good marketing company should have teams of people that assist you in saving time by marketing on your behalf.
