So you’re ready to market your law firm? You’re 100% prepared to increase your law firm’s brand awareness! You’ve got the budget, the right staff, you’ve got the fortitude, but unfortunately … you have no idea how to get started.
Well, the good news is, there isn’t a magic bullet to marketing and advertising because if there were, everybody would be using it. Thusly, any “magic-bullet-marketing” tactic would cease to be magic because it would be commonplace. This fact brings us to the heart of what effective marketing and advertising mean for your law firm – the goal is to get noticed.
The bad news when it comes to choosing which marketing and advertising strategy is best for your law firm is, and I hear lawyers say this A LOT to their own clients, “it depends.”
As a former law firm marketing director, and now as a content strategist here at Consultwebs, I’ve experienced both sides of the legal marketing dilemma. Here are my five tips on building awareness for your law firm:
(1.) Discover what your brand is.
Everyone thinks they know what their law firm’s brand is, and I hate to tell you, you probably don’t. Your brand is not a logo. Your brand is not the slogans you came up with in a meeting with shareholders. Your brand isn’t based on your love of tigers, sharks, or bulldogs, and it isn’t what you “stand for.”
Your actual brand is defined by the client experience at your firm.
Your brand is what your clients say about your firm.
Every lawyer knows the importance of word-of-mouth referrals. Indeed, they are cited as the number one driver of new business.
However, very few lawyers do the necessary work to capture what those mouths are actually saying. Why did they refer you specifically? What was it about the experience at your firm in particular that made the referral feel necessary?

If we are serious about living out our core values as a company, then it seemed that core Value #4 gave us the plumb line. If we had opted for a hybrid- like vaccines, or a negative test within the last 72 hours- it simply didn’t seem tenable. We imagined attendees trying to get a test the day before they flew out to New Orleans, and then trying to scramble to get another test during the Conference. That presented a...
