TLM PODCAST EPISODE 17 - FINDING YOUR IDEAL CLIENT

For many lawyers the problems of client development keep them from having an enjoyable practice. I had to reach a breaking point, and then I sat down to find a better way. Today I share how I found the clients I like to work with, and how I market our law firm to them.

This is an excerpt from the weekly Online LEGAL Mastermind sessions that happen on Tuesday at 2:00 pacific. If you'd like to join us, just email [email protected] for information.
