In this episode, Jim and Tyson will go through a list of 4 thoughts about when it comes to being a lawyer, a legal marketer and running your own firm.

1. Believe that you are the one for the job. Believe in you. This mindset will help you get things done. “The Ownership Mindset”.
2. Think of your clients as the one and only person. Then automate and delegate to accomplish that level of service from one person to another.
3. If you do it once, you should automate it.
4. If it works one, you can replicate it… If you can get your message out there to the right person, you can grow your firm as big as possible.

“The practice of law, is a business…”

Three letters that will really help you excel when it comes to selling: L. A. W.

L is for Lawyers: So much of the business comes from referrals from other lawyers…

A is for Analytics: We live in a world that is data driven. Where are your leads coming from?...

W is for Wisdom: Knowledge. Experience. Understanding. Common sense. Insight.

“Don’t go to a networking event thinking I wonder if I can get a lead, go to a networking event saying I wonder who I can give a lead to that will lead to real business…”

Thom’s Tip: Go old school. Send a handwritten note. Every week. It will improve your relations and you will grow your reputation.

Hacking’s hack: To read 2 books at the same time! Take 2 books about business and read one chapter at a time, alternating chapters. The idea is to find connections over the 2 books and to pull out new ideas from them.

In this episode, Jim and Tyson finish their talk with attorney Will Norman. This time, he will give us an update on his process and explain his “5, 5, 5 Plan”. Also, Jim and Tyson will go through a list of suggestions to help Will move forward with his firm.

Will’s 5, 5, 5 plan consists on building 3 different referral networks and to obtain 5 cases from each of them. Jim and Tyson will share their thoughts about it...

“When you are starting out, I think it’s helpful to think big, and not arbitrarily hold yourself back…”

List of quick tips from Jim and Tyson after reading Will’s questions in the Facebook Group:
1. Don’t answer your own phone.
2. Have a system to capture all the information you can from anyone who calls so you can add the to your database.
3. Nitch down.
4. Take notes, CRM, keep track. “As you grow, you want people to know what’s going on with your cases.”
5. Focus on the big things. The vision. The goal.
6. Have a lead magnet strategy. Keep track of client questions.
7. Outsource
