All right, there is no such thing as a magic bullet when it comes to legal marketing. I wish that wasn't the case. I've been doing long this long enough to know there just is no such thing as a magic bullet. And you actually set yourself back big time if you think there is such a thing as a magic bullet, right? That's why attorneys end up bouncing from marketing provider to marketing provider because they're looking for something that really just doesn't exist. Listen, there's at least three things that need to be present to make a marketing campaign successful. One, you need a way to generate leads. Okay, you need to find new potential clients who are interested or have a need for your services, your practicer. That's one, you gotta go find those people. But don't expect that they're all gonna sign up with you immediately. So that is why you need sort of stage two of this, which is a system to nurture those leads. That might look like email marketing, that could look like retargeting, could look there's a lot of different formats you can take. But the bottom line is once you've identified a lead and gotten them to raise their hand, you still need to nurture them. It might only be 24 hours of nurture, it could be three years worth of nurture, depending on your practice area. You need to nurture your leads. And the point of nurturing your leads is to get them to schedule a consultation, right? Whether that's a paid, free, whatever your model is, you need them to actually go ahead and schedule a consultation. And then you need a sales and intake process that's going to convert them into a paying client. You can't skip the steps. I would love to tell you that I have a magic bullet that's going to do all of that for you. It takes work, it takes strategy, it takes testing. You're not looking for a magic bullet. You are looking to build a machine that generates leads, nurtures leads, creates actual sales opportunities, converts them into paying.
