  • Dramatic new research shows that:

    • More than 70 percent of lawyers are members of an online social network.  Are you?
    • Identifying, evaluating and selecting outside counsel was among the top three reasons for corporate counsel participation in online networking. Can they find you?

    The Networks for Counsel Survey demonstrates that without a presence in an online network, you may be invisible to potential clients and referral sources. Is your word of mouth marketing being boosted by your web presence - or are you losing out to more internet savvy competitors?

    Most lawyers realize that online networks are a great business development tool – but they don’t know where to begin. This program will sort through all the choices – FaceBook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Martindale Connected, Legal Onramp, My Space, Plaxo, Spoke and others - and instruct you on:

    • Which sites to focus your efforts on for the best business development results.
    • Which of the networks are a waste of time.
    • Creating a profile that generates leads.
    • How to use a network so that it generates new-business leads.
    • Avoiding the downsides and dangers of online social networking.
    • How much time to devote.
    • Online "netiquette" and mistakes to avoid.
    • A Model Policy on Blogging, Social Networking, and Electronic Communications And Media.

    Without a presence online, you may be invisible to potential clients and referral sources. Now you can get all your questions about online networking answered by a former litigator who is an online expert. You'll get practical, plain-English, how-to advice from a professional marketer who is familiar with all the online options.

    Testimonial from an attendee: “Larry presented this to LMA Philadelphia this year and I can tell you what an interesting, fresh approach this was to a topic that seems to be all over the place these days. He shared great, hard-core statistics and lots of resources for folks to follow up on after the presentation.” -- Jamie Mulholland, Professional Marketer, Atlantic City, NJ.

This is not a class on how to dither away time during working hours. It is a business development class intentionally designed to show lawyers how to expand their clientele.
